New name. Same mission.
Here’s our kids class playing one of their favorite warm-up games: freeze tag with a self-defense twist.
At Bismarck Self Defense Academy, we believe kids learn best when they’re having fun, moving, problem-solving, and building confidence without even realizing how much they’re improving.
Games like this help develop movement, awareness, reaction time, teamwork, and the ability to stay calm under pressure — all while they’re laughing and burning off energy like tiny caffeinated ninjas.
We’re excited for this next chapter and proud to continue offering an award-winning self-defense program right here in Bismarck.
If you’re looking for a positive, challenging, and confidence-building activity for your child, now is a great time to get started.

We instruct and train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in a fun and friendly environment. Kids class every Tuesday and Thursday at 6-6:45pm, adults Monday through Thursday from 6:30-8pm.
This new kids group is really starting to come along.
In such a short time, we’ve already seen them grow leaps and bounds — better movement, better confidence, better focus, and a better understanding of how to stay calm and problem-solve under pressure.
That’s one of the biggest benefits of Jiu Jitsu and self-defense training for kids. They don’t just learn how to roll around on the mats — they learn discipline, confidence, respect, and skills that can help them handle real situations.
Get your child into our award-winning self-defense program today.
Self-defense is one of those skills you don’t know you need… until you need it.

We had our monthly stripe and belt testing, and these kids absolutely crushed it 🥋💪
They were pushed hard, challenged mentally and physically — and none of them quit. Most powered through the work with a smile on their face.
Testing days aren’t just about stripes and belts. They’re about building confidence, resilience, and real self-defense skills so kids are prepared to stand up to challenges — including bullying — both on and off the mats.
Proud of every single one of them here at Ice Dragon Academy 🐉
