Welcome to Self Defense USA
For 18 years this martial arts school has been coaching people, of all ages, in the process of learning and practicing the martial arts as a tool for learning and practicing the art of being a more complete, proactive, and empowered human being.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We consider ourselves an integral "part of the village" that helps parents instill valuable character traits, beliefs, and habits in their children, such as: self-discipline, the ability to stay calm under pressure, the appreciation of teachers, parents, and other mentors, and the importance of proper diet, exercise, and education in a happy and fulfilling life.
For thousands of adult and teens, we have been - and continue to be - a place to refuel, recharge, and remember the value of keeping one's body fit, to keep the mind and the spirit fit. We teach a brand of self-defense that transcends the block, kick, punch, and throw - and includes the self-defense skills of kindness, empathy, community, and compassion.
You are cordially invited to visit and/or be a part of this school, if you are looking for something fun and extraordinarily engaging, interesting, and life-enhancing. We are masters of making it easy to get started. We are experts at making the learning fun and exciting. And we are committed to being role models of honesty, customer service, and good old fashioned value.
Welcome!
What Makes Us Different?
At Self Defense USA, we study and practice the martial arts with the intention of improving our own lives and not just physically, but in everything we do, and with everything (and everyone) we love and care for. We see this goal as a very authentic and relevant approach to personal "self-defense."
We start studying and practicing in our studio, but it doesn't end there, as our quest is to take our training "out of the studio and into the world."
At Self Defense USA our curriculum goes beyond physical techniques, often including interesting writing and/or filmmaking projects, project-based leadership training, community service, and familiarity with methods of peaceful conflict resolution. As students progress they're certainly challenged physically, but the martial arts, like life, is so much more than just technique. If you're looking for something wonderfully creative, exciting, steeped in tradition, but relevant to the here and now, please come visit us! We are humbly and gratefully accepting new students!
More than any other sport, Karate gives our children the chance to explore their innate powers. Marvel as they increase in strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, and harmony. This is only the start. Physical skills act as a foundation for something much more important: the development of value skills, both mental and spiritual.
Self Defense USA incorporates a combination of techniques and principles from a variety of Martial Arts styles, including Hapkido, Kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Goju-ryu Karate, Kali, Kobudo and weapons, all of which provides our students with a well-balanced, "streetsmart" self-defense system. Most other styles of martial arts tend to focus on just individual areas of self-defense. Combining the best of many styles into a blended system, gives Self Defense USA students the advantage they need to protect themselves in virtually any situation.

"How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world."
Anne Frank
Obvious and hidden benefits...
that's what the long-term study of the martial arts offers you. Like an onion, there are many layers of practice, of understanding, of self-exploration; many layers of benefits that only reveal themselves through consistent and regular practice.
Obviously, training makes your body function better, look better, and feel better. Behind the obvious is the neurological and psychological benefits; your brain works better, your emotional control improves, as does your connection to people with similar motivations and interests.
Obviously, studying the martial arts helps you sharpen the physical tools of personal protection. The person who has practiced 10,000 blocks and 10,000 counter-attacks has an edge in any physical conflict. But less than obvious is the way that the practice protects you from some of the most dangerous enemies in today's world: lethargy, negative thinking, lack of adequate exercise, apathy, indifference, anger, and stress.
"Throughout my day I am charged. I'm charged with the responsibility of earning income, of service to others, of what I must do tomorrow, and the management of what feels like a thousand responsibilities. When I get on the mat, I feel a release of that 'charge,' I get grounded, and the complexity of the world disappears. I'd say my time studying the martial arts is some of the best time I invest in myself."
--Ed Pullin, age 37, three years of martial arts training
In Dicken's famous novel, A Christmas Carol, Ebenezer Scrooge is taken into his future -and as a result he comes back to the present with a compelling need to wake up and change. If you could venture into the future and see the benefits that await you from the study of the martial arts, you would come back today and enroll in the longest program we offer.
Better health, fitness, mental and emotional clarity, and many, many friendships and experiences await you.
