The
Rape Aggression Defense Basic Personal
Defense System is a national program of realistic self-defense tactics and techniques
taught for women only. All courses are taught by nationally certified R.A.D.
Instructors.
The
goal of R.A.D. is to provide realistic self-defense options to women,
regardless of their level of physical conditioning. Students at all levels of
ability, age, experience, and strength will be provided with techniques and
information that can be effectively used from the first day of class. R.A.D. is
not a martial arts program, nor does it require students to be athletes in
training to succeed.
The
R.A.D. system will provide students with the knowledge to make an educated
decision about personal defense. We provide information on physical and
non-physical options, as well as insight into the attacker mindset.
Every
student receives a manual for reference and practice. Once a student has
completed a R.A.D. program, their signed manual becomes a ticket for free
lifetime return and practice with any R.A.D. instructor in the US and Canada.
The
widespread acceptance of the R.A.D. system is due to the ease, simplicity, and
effectiveness of our tactics, solid research, legal defensibility, and unique
teaching methodology. R.A.D. is the only self-defense program endorsed by the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement
Administrators (IACLEA).
