R.A.D. Women Basic Physical Defense Course

Thank you for your interest. Our Spring 2022 R.A.D. class is currently full. Please look for our next class in Fall of 2022. 

R.A.D. is a contemporary basic self-defense course for WOMEN ​ONLY.  Rape Aggression Defense Systems, Inc. and East Providence Police Officers trained in this program provide attendees with information, tactics, and considerations, which can be usseful in various types of abductive encounters perpetrated against women. Even though your family, husbands, domestic and intimate partners want to protect you from harm and keep you safe, they are not able to be there every hour of every day.

The fact is, there is one person who will definitely be there in your time of need....that is YOU! 
YOU ARE YOUR OWN BEST DEFENSE!

The R.A.D. Women Basic Physical Defense Course is a series of six, 3 hour classes, given twice a week for three weeks. Any questions, please contact one of our R.A.D. Women Instructors: Lt.
