Thank you to every family who attended our Annual Abduction Prevention Workshops today!

Watching our students build real-world confidence, practical awareness, and strong voices for their safety is why we do what we do. We love seeing the students who come back year after year, and the new students who are experiencing this hands-on workshop for the first time.

Thank you for trusting us with your family's safety education and for being such an important part of our prepared community. 🙏

👋 Hey Liberty Hill neighbors!

We wanted to take a moment to re-introduce ourselves and share a bit more about what we do at Shin Gan Dojo!

For those who don’t know us, we are Sensei Brian and Gigi Simmons. After spending over two decades teaching martial arts and personal safety across the country, we planted our roots in Liberty Hill in 2020 to serve the community we love.

While some of you might know us through our fi****ms training organization (Urban Defense Academy), Shin Gan Dojo is our dedicated home for traditional Japanese martial arts.

Here in the dojo, we work with students ages 6 yrs and up to build:

🥋 Practical Self-Defense: Practical self defense skills for kids, teens, and adults.

🧠 Focus & Discipline: Developing mental resilience, self-control, and respect.

🛡️ Confidence & Awareness: Building the mindset needed to navigate life with poise and security.

Whether you're looking for a structured youth program that teaches real life skills, or you're an adult looking to learn traditional martial arts in a supportive, focused environment, we would love to connect.

And on a personal note, while we take training seriously, photos are another story! If you join us you'll soon see that pictures (especially with Sensei) are not usually a time for seriousness...more often goofiness or silly faces!

Feel free to drop a comment below or send us a message if you have any questions about our upcoming training programs, or say hi next time you see us around town!

What martial arts or personal safety goals are you or your family working on right now? 👇
