251 years of defending freedom. 🇺🇸

From the first musket shots in 1775 to the high-tech, multi-domain force of today, our Soldiers have always been, and always will be, ready to answer the call.

Today our students spent the afternoon at NexJen Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu learning discipline, focus, confidence, and perseverance. We’re grateful for partners like NexJen who invest in our youth and help them build skills that extend far beyond the mat.

A huge thank you to Coach Vince and the NexJen team for welcoming our students, see you next week for more! NexJen BJJ

Grateful for the opportunity to teach another self-defense seminar at the White House, TN Recreation Center.

It’s always an honor to teach practical, real-world skills that build confidence, awareness, and the ability to respond under pressure. This isn’t just about techniques—it’s about mindset, preparation, and empowering individuals to take ownership of their personal safety.

Appreciate everyone who showed up ready to learn and put in the work. Here are a few photos from today’s seminar.
