The key objective of the GB Ambassadors Program is to unite everyone behind Gracie Barra. It is a platform to boost everybody’s training, connect Professors and students, build greater unity in the team, reinforce the values of Gracie Barra, develop a stronger presence in the UK and strengthen the technical level of all GB students.

Secondly, the Ambassadors Program is designed to help fund our highest ranked athletes, to support them to achieve their dreams in representing the red shield at major competitions around the world.

So, whilst the GB Ambassadors Program is directed at our athletes, other members of the GB community will see benefits as well. By encouraging as many members of the GB community as possible to participate, by supporting our programme events throughout the year, not only will the level of training improve, but the GB community will witness a greater alignment in the values and philosophies that are encouraged by Gracie Barra; by enabling the culture within GB to flourish we will create a stronger, more successful, and larger team than ever before. 

Becoming a Gracie Barra UK Ambassador is not only a huge honour and role model responsibility, it comes with a raft of benefits for you as an athlete.
