You are worth defending.
The Women Empowered Community of Ambassadors Network (WeCan) is where your journey begins. We are a group of women from all walks of life who are dedicated to spreading the word – that self-defense is the new definition of wellness.
Gracie University
WeCan is part of the Women Empowered® program at Gracie University, an internationally recognized academy dedicated to teaching global Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) techniques and philosophies.
We believe self-defense & BJJ should be accessible to EVERYONE – no exceptions.
Together, WeCan:
Be confident
Be strong
Be empowered
Empowerment Starts Here
Too often women think of self-defense as an aggressive, inaccessible combat sport—WeCan shows you a different way.
No prior experience? No problem.
Unsure of where to start? We got you.
Want to meet like-minded women who’ve got your back? Here we are!
Take the Next Step in Your Journey
At the end of the Women Empowered® program, you earn your Pink Belt. And that’s only the beginning. You'll become part of WeCan to stay connected to likeminded women, keep learning, and give back to the community, both on and off the mat.
If not, maybe something like "Pink Belts are invited to join WeCan, where you'll stay connected to likeminded women, keep learning, and give back to the community....."
Why WeCan?
YOU are worth defending—and so is the woman standing next to you.
Together, we’re creating a world where women cheer each other on, lift each other up, and inspire one another to dream even bigger. WeCan is a building block in making that dream come true.
