How can I support?

• Advocate. Contact your local Police department and let them know you want our Police trained to a higher standard. Let your local politicians know the same. We are responsible for improving the relationship between our police and our community, and this is a powerful way to build trust.

• Donate. Donate what is comfortable to provide scholarships for our officers to get trained and bring that knowledge back to their departments and communities. Each scholarship of $995 trains an officer to go back to his or her department and teach others, or provides mats to train.

• Outreach. Our police are a community resource. They are public servants and we have a responsibility to them, just as they have a responsibility to us. Instructors who are certified in GST can go on to teach young people through their local police athletic league and police explorers. Jiu-jitsu brings people together.

Note: if you are a police officer and would like to get Gracie Survival Tactics for your department, please contact us through the form below or at thegentlewaytraining@gmail.com
