About Us
Self-defense, building a family culture, and encouraging others: that is what we are all about at Self-Defense 4U. The moment you walk into our Bedford martial arts school you’ll be greeted with a smile and make you comfortable. Many parents bring in their children hoping to improve their focus, self-confidence, etc. We take that into account and emphasize those skills in their training. This uplifts them to be the best they can be. On top of all that, we have monthly Parent’s Night Out events, allowing you to enjoy yourself! Join us and let us help you and your children thrive in and out of our school!
History
Self-Defense 4U has been contributing to the growth of martial arts in Bedford for 12+ years. Our journey all began in 1989, when Tom first started taking martial arts lessons. He learned that you must stay humble, or become humbled quickly. His passion for martial arts grew, leading to his non-profit martial arts organization. Still, he felt he could do more. That led to the opening of our Bedford martial arts school in October 2013, and we’ve been going ever since. When we started we focused mostly on self-defense. Now we are a self-defense school that emphasizes a culture of supporting each other on and off the mat.
