Inside BCMAA | Advisor David Holcomb
"BCMAA is about much more than martial arts.
It is a place where students learn to become peacemakers—developing the confidence, discipline, and character to lead with strength and wisdom. In a world that often teaches people to react, we teach them how to respond with purpose.
What makes BCMAA unique is the combination of faith and martial arts. Students grow physically, mentally, and spiritually while building relationships that last far beyond their college years.
For many young martial artists, college can be the end of their training journey. BCMAA creates a pathway for them to continue developing their skills, stay connected to a martial arts community, and pursue their education at the same time.
Part of why this mission resonates so deeply with me is simple: I believe everyone deserves to feel safe. Life has taught me that some people use their strength to intimidate, control, or harm others. That reality did not create a desire in me to fight—it created a desire to protect. When I talk about standing up to bullies, I am talking about helping others know their value and creating environments where people can thrive without fear.
Most importantly, inspiration matters. Every class is an opportunity to encourage students to love, protect, and support others. We want our students to be people who stand up for those around them, help end bullying, and make a positive difference wherever God leads them.
Martial arts taught me that true strength is not found in hurting people. It is found in protecting them. That mission is why teaching the next generation of protectors matters to me!"
