The Ultimate Self-Defense Championship is expanding.
The combat and self-defense competition series, which airs on YouTube and across social media has generated 150M views online and has run for three seasons. The organization is now planning a new female-focused spinoff series set to launch this summer on YouTube.
It comes as the group is planning to launch season four of the show later this year. It is also developing a reboot of the series for traditional buyers and is working with Cowboy Bear Ninja, the company behind TruTV’s Paid Off on the project.
Created by Rokas Leonavičius, the series brings together competitors and experts from across the martial arts world, including UFC fighters, kickboxers, self-defense specialists, traditional martial artists, grapplers, striking experts, and practitioners representing a wide range of disciplines all competing for the USDC championship belt.
The series recently launched on Tubi as part of its Creatorverse initiative and will expand on other platforms in the coming months.
The female-focused spinoff will spotlight elite women from across the self-defense and martial arts communities.
“From the beginning, USDC was built around the idea of exploring what works, what doesn’t, and bringing together people from different backgrounds who are passionate about self-defense,” said Leonavičius. “The response from audiences around the world has exceeded anything we could have imagined, and we’re excited to continue growing the format.”
