Witness Martial Arts ​

Pro Team Sponsorship Deliverables​

The Panhandle's Elite. A New Era of Competitive Jiu-Jitsu.​

  • Based in Pensacola, Florida, Witness Martial Arts is a premier competitive martial arts academy dedicated to developing elite athletes and elevating No-Gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu throughout the region.​

  • In 2027, Witness will launch Pensacola's first fully funded professional BJJ team, providing six elite competitors with the financial support, coaching, and resources to compete on the national stage, including ADCC events.​

  • With a strong local following and organic social media reach, Witness is creating unprecedented opportunities for regional athletes while connecting local businesses to one of the world's fastest-growing competitive martial arts communities.​

OUR REACH & IMPACT​

  • 2,000–25,000+ organic views on social media content​

  • 6-8 fully funded professional BJJ athletes​

  • 24 Million+ social media impressions surrounding the 2019 ADCC World Championships​

  • ADCC audience statistic: FloGrappling, 2019 World Championships. Event-wide impressions, not Witness-specific reach.​

  • National Competition: Representing Pensacola at major BJJ events​

We're not just developing champions. We're redefining what's possible for athletes in the Florida Panhandle.​

Removing Financial Barriers. Creating Professional Opportunities​

The Witness Pro Team is a first-of-its-kind, fully funded Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competition program based in Pensacola, Florida.​

Elite athletes earn their positions through competitive trials held every six months. Once selected, these athletes receive comprehensive support to compete against some of the nation's best.​

WHAT OUR ATHLETES RECEIVE​

  • Competition Funding: Tournament registration, travel, accommodations, and a $50 daily meal allowance for approved events.​

  • Professional Coaching: Specialized competition training, coaching, and cornering at events.​

  • Strength & Conditioning: Individualized athletic development and performance programming provided by a third-party professional strength and conditioning coach.​

  • Professional Equipment: Custom team uniforms, warmups, gear bags, and apparel.​

  • Athlete Development: Professional photography, promotional videos, interviews, seminars, and personal brand development.​

  • Athlete Protection: Paid participant accident coverage for qualifying team activities.​

WHY THIS MATTERS

  • Elite-level competition is expensive. Between tournament fees, travel, lodging, and preparation, talented athletes often face significant financial obstacles.​

  • Witness Martial Arts is removing those obstacles, allowing athletes to focus on what matters most: training, competing, and representing Pensacola on the national stage.​

  • Our sponsors help make this ambitious program financially sustainable.​

More Than a Sponsorship. A Partnership Built on Mutual Growth.​

At Witness Martial Arts, we believe a great sponsorship should be mutually beneficial. We're not simply looking for businesses to fund our athletes. We're looking for partners who share our vision and want to grow alongside us.​

Your investment helps talented athletes pursue opportunities that might otherwise remain out of reach. In return, we are committed to actively promoting your brand, supporting your business, and delivering measurable value.​

Through our established local audience, growing regional presence, and national competition opportunities, we aim to connect our partners with new customers and communities throughout Pensacola, the Gulf Coast, and beyond.​

We recognize that sponsorship is an investment, and we intend to earn that investment through creativity, consistent promotion, and genuine collaboration.​

Our goal is simple: Help our athletes succeed, help our partners grow, and build something extraordinary together.​
