Being an ambassador means always being the best version of myself on and off the mats. It means having a no quitting attitude and always putting in the work, even when it’s tough. It means motivating and encouraging others on their Jiu Jitsu journey and always representing Gracie Barra with pride.

Professor Orlando Sanchez
Being a GB Oceania Ambassador means having the opportunity to actively engage in events and promote our team's values and mission.
I aim to make a positive impact throughout the Jiu Jitsu community, both on and off the mat, by contributing to the GB ethos and enhancing the team's success and reputation.
I strive to inspire others with a positive attitude and sportsmanlike behavior, whether in victory or defeat, and to create a sense of belonging, especially for those new to the sport.
This opportunity I have worked hard for fuels my passion for Jiu Jitsu and drives me to enhance our team's visibility, motivating others to engage with our sport so we can all enjoy jiu jitsu together.
My primary focus is to rank #1 as a yellow belt in AFBJJ rankings.
This year I wanted my goals the same as my jiu jitsu basic but effective.
With this goal I feel everything will fall into place, by training every day, grinding away on days that are tough, gaining more knowledge, actively competing and enjoying the process will help me get to where I want to be.
