Rape Aggression Defence (RAD) Training
What is RAD?
The Rape Aggression Defence System provides women basic information on personal safety, awareness, risk reduction and avoidance. RAD teaches practical defensive techniques that require no special skills. This is employed as women learn to be more aware of their surroundings. RAD also offers the opportunity to test these learned skills on a real person during an optional simulated attack session.
Why is RAD Special?
- The largest network of its kind with over 3,000 instructors trained who have trained nearly 100,000 women.
- The only program with a free lifetime return and practice policy that is honoured nationwide and in the United States.
- The development of specialized simulation techniques and equipment for use by certified RAD instructors.
- The only self defence program ever endorsed by the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators (I.A.C.L.E.A.).
RAD Basic Physical Defence Program
The cornerstone of the RAD System, this course has its foundations in education and awareness. The course includes lecture, discussion, and self defence techniques suitable for women of all ages and abilities.
