ICP was intelligently designed to achieve a main goal: to professionalize the instructors, school owners and members of Gracie Barra.

With over 5,000 participants from all over the world since it was launched in 2011, the ICP has placed a great contribution on keeping all GB team members united as one team, defending one shield, in pursuit of one goal: to teach Jiu-Jitsu for Everyone.

The ICP is always evolving to reflect the improvements made to the GB Method and innovations to the learning experience of each participant. The use of the most advanced e-learning technologies makes the program virtually accessible by all.

Every instructor taking the ICP must complete and pass the background check. The background check is one more action taken by Gracie Barra in an effort to increase the safety of GB students and our commitment to excellence.
