Our instructors are certified to teach the Rape Aggression Defense (R.A.D.) System of self-defense. R.A.D. Systems, an internationally recognized system, was developed in 1989 focused specifically on the safety of women and the threats they are most likely to face. R.A.D. is not a martial arts program and was designed so that any woman of any age or physical condition could, with a minimal amount of time invested (9 - 12 hours divided over several sessions) learn the techniques to enable them to help reduce the odds of becoming victims of violence. R.A.D. offers a lifetime "return and practice" policy to students who complete the training. At the end of the course, students receive a manual signed by an instructor. Students may return to practice all or part of the same level course, at no additional charge, at any location worldwide that R.A.D. is offered.
Many people solely rely on a firearm or pepper spray as their whole defense strategy. There is so much more that goes into self defense than any particular tool which may not be available or legal in a particular situation. We like to encourage women to first learn defense techniques using their personal weapons which are always available to them. Additional tools such as stun guns, pepper sprays and personal alarms are excellent tools when used properly but personal awareness and the ability to physically defend oneself is of absolute importance.
If your company, group or association is interested in hosting a class for your female employees or members or you have questions about the program, please let us know. We also hold private classes occasionally when requested.
