A huge THANK YOU to all of our students, instructors, families, and friends who came out to celebrate React Defense Systems’ 25th Anniversary with us. Your support, dedication, and commitment over the years have helped shape the amazing community we have today.

25 Years. Thousands of Lives Changed. One Mission.

Today we celebrate 25 years of React Defense Systems.

For a quarter of a century, we’ve had the privilege of teaching ordinary people how to protect themselves and the people they love. We’ve watched students gain confidence, overcome fear, build resilience, and become part of a family that believes everyone deserves the ability to defend themselves.

This milestone isn’t just about the years, it’s about every student who stepped onto the mat, every instructor who gave their time and knowledge, and every family that trusted us with their safety.

To our members, instructors, staff, and supporters: thank you. Your dedication is the reason we’ve reached this incredible milestone.

Thank you for being part of our journey.

Most importantly with much love and respect I want to thank my incredible family without them this journey would not have occurred.

Joy there is no wife/partner that can ever come close to what you do for me and our family everyday of our lives. Without you this dream could not have ever happened!!! I love more than words can say!!!

Josh I want to tell everyone you are the most talented person I know!! We have been the best team in the world and I never could have done this without you!! Thank you for being my best friend I love you kid!!!!

Last but not least thank you Jenna my beautiful daughter whose light shines bright!! You brought sunshine to our life every day no matter what was going on!!! You were the heart of our Journey thanks for all the years you helped!!! Love you May you shine on forever!!!

Thank you Tony you’ve been an amazing loyal friend for over 20 years!!! What a great Job you do every day in Glendale!! You have been part of our family and I wish you nothing but the same success that we have achieved and I know you will !!!!
