Master O’s Black Belt World has teamed up with the RAD (Rape Aggression Defense) System to bring you classes that teach realistic self-defense tactics and techniques for women ages 13 to 93. It is a 9-hour comprehensive course that includes awareness, prevention, risk reduction, risk avoidance, and the basics of hands–on defense training.
Our training is designed to give students the opportunity to practice their skills, so an effective defense will become a natural reaction to an attack. Check it out at http://rad-systems.com/. We also offer a 3-hour course of the basics.
Our next class will be scheduled soon.
Who may enroll in Master O’s RAD Program?
RAD is for women and teen girls only. You need not be enrolled in the taekwondo program. The contents of the course were developed based on the natural movements and abilities of women in order to maximize a woman’s ability to defend herself. This program is designed for all women, including the average woman with no previous experience or background in physical skills training.
A minor (age 17 and under) must first receive permission from her parent or legal guardian before participating in any of the activities of RAD. It is very common for mothers and daughters to attend this program together. In addition to developing and enhancing their options of self-defense, it seems to be a great bonding experience for them.
RAD recommends all women including high school and college students take the training. Any woman who has taken the training previously is invited to return for practice, free of charge

Why the RAD System of Women’s Self-Defense?
The RAD System is actually a functioning network of dedicated self-defense instructors that was established in 1989. It is dedicated to teaching women defensive concepts and techniques against various types of assault, by utilizing easy, effective, and proven self-defense tactics. Our system of realistic defense will provide a woman with the knowledge to make an educated decision about resistance. We operate on the premise that a spontaneous violent attack will stimulate a natural desire to resist. We educate women about the flight or fight syndrome, while showing them that enhancing their option of physical defense is not only prudent, but a necessity if natural resistance is to be effective. The RAD System is the only self-defense course ever endorsed by the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators.
This course should be considered a MUST for young women preparing to leave home to attend college. Statistics show that 1 out of 4 college women reported being sexually assaulted sometime during their four years. Rape is a serial offense. Less than 8% of men in college commit 90% of the rapes. The growing and widespread acceptance of the RAD System is primarily due to the ease, simplicity, and effectiveness of our tactics, solid research, legal defensibility, and unique teaching methodology.
IMPORTANT: Please complete the Registration and Parental Consent forms from this page, make sure to bring them the day of your class.
