Rape Aggression Defense (RAD) Training

The Rape Aggression Defense System for Women is a program of realistic, self-defense tactics and techniques.  The Department recognizes that for some people, personal empowerment and self-advocacy involves learning any number of personal protection strategies. There’s no experience needed to take a R.A.D. class, because the progressive building block format gives everyone the opportunity to learn the skills they want to learn — from how to be aware of your surroundings and who’s around you, to what to do if they’re attacked from behind to using proper form.  R.A.D. is not a martial arts program. 

FACT:  Sexual assault is never the victim’s fault.  Sexual assault is a violent attack on an individual, not a spontaneous crime of sexual passion.

R.A.D. is another tool for your personal safety toolbox.

Cost:  $25 *Scholarships available

Classes are held on the CU Anschutz Medical Campus.  Space is limited and registration is by online payment.  Before registering, please ensure you are able to attend the full 16 hours of class.
