What We've Achieved

BMD has led pioneering efforts in combat instruction, achieving notable distinctions along the way. As the first organization to obtain civilian certification for force-on-force training in Michigan and the sole provider of Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) training in the state, BMD has expanded access to critical skills. With exclusive certification as a rangemaster instructor, BMD ensures unparalleled proficiency in firearms training. Notably, BMD instructed 40 squad army leaders at Fort Bragg in 2016, focusing on hand-to-hand combat and rifle techniques. Moreover, our contributions extend to organizing three successful amateur boxing shows, fostering talent and contributing to the sport's growth, while coaching numerous fighters to success in competitive arenas, ensuring their development and achievement. Moreover, our commitment to innovation extends beyond conventional realms. Continually breaking the traditional boundaries of self defense schools, BMD remains at the forefront of evolving training methodologies, ensuring our students receive the most comprehensive and effective instruction available.
