What is RAD?

“Rape Aggression Defense” (RAD) is a program with realistic self-defense tactics and techniques for women.  The RAD system is a comprehensive, internationally known women-only course taught by nationally-certified instructors.  The RAD system is a course that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and avoidance, while progressing to hands-on interaction.  RAD is dedicated to teaching women defensive concepts and techniques against various types of assault, by utilizing easy, effective and proven self-defense/martial arts tactics.  Our goal is to provide women with the knowledge to make an educated decision about resistance. We provide effective options by teaching women to take an active role in their own self-defense and psychological well being.  Please visit R.A.D.
