Event Details

We're partnering with the Guilderland Police Department to offer Rape Aggression Defense training, a self-defense program offered to women. R.A.D. Basic Self Defense is a comprehensive, women-only course that begins with awareness, prevention and risk avoidance strategies.  We believe this is 90% of our personal safety. 

This 12-hour program is broken down into three sessions.  Day one starts with risk education and transitions into hands-on physical defense. The following sessions are composed of physical training that culminates in the simulation component of the program.  The final session gives the participant the opportunity to perform the techniques they have learned against “aggressors” wearing protective equipment in a realistic training scenario. 

R.A.D. provides effective options by teaching women to take an active role in their own self-defense and psychological well being. If you have ever considered taking a self defense class now is the time to do it!  Gain new skills, friends and the confidence to protect yourself in a situation.  

Space is limited to 20 participants, so register early!
