RAD Training

R.A.D. Basic Physical Defense is the cornerstone of the R.A.D. systems. R.A.D is not just about self-defense against rape, it also focuses on how to defend yourself against any type of violence. The course begins with talking about risk factors and the importance of being observant. Participants will understand the importance of their voice, which is their most important weapon of self-defense. Instructors will identify personal weapons women can use to defend themselves and identify vulnerable locations on the person who is attacking them. Instructors will introduce different striking techniques and they will be able to practice one on one with the instructor. Instructors are the only individuals allowed to take “strikes”. Instructors will introduce techniques on how to get out of chokes, bear hugs and other restraints. Each session is designed to add another technique/option of self-defense without overwhelming the participant. 

This R.A.D. course for women focuses on 4 risk factors of self-defense: 

• Risk awareness
• Risk reduction
• Risk recognition
• Risk avoidance
