EP 1 — Why the GBF Program Exists - Women’s Jiu-Jitsu: A Four-Part Conversation
In this first episode, Professor Flávio Almeida leads a structured conversation with Professors Nika and Vivi about the origins of the GBF and the institutional motivations behind its creation. The discussion begins by acknowledging the historical challenges faced by women in the Jiu-Jitsu environment and progresses toward the need for an organized, intentional initiative aligned with the values of Gracie Barra. The episode makes clear that the GBF Program was not created as an isolated action, but as part of a broader strategic movement aimed at building a more structured, representative, and conscious training environment.
Throughout the conversation, topics such as female leadership, organizational responsibility, and the role of schools in fostering safer and more welcoming spaces are explored. The episode establishes the conceptual foundation of the project, emphasizing that cultural transformation requires planning, commitment, and active participation from the entire community. More than introducing a program, this episode opens a broader reflection on the future of women’s Jiu-Jitsu within the organization.
