RSAD is a self-defense system designed to be comprehensive, uses no martial arts skills, is perfectly realistic and effective yet requires very little strength. RSAD is easy to understand and retain and uses no weapons. It sounds like a miracle diet drug, but quite simply it's a study in human behaviour, body mechanics, motor nerve points, body language and awareness. We have studied and sifted through many cases of sexual assault from successful escapes to unfortunate victims. Very distinct patterns emerged. Come join a workshop and develop a new found sense of security and understanding and open the path for a new sense of awareness.
