Carrollton Police Department holds self-defense classes for women
CARROLLTON — The Rape Aggression Defense (R.A.D.) System is a program of realistic self-defense tactics and techniques for women. Class will be held each Monday from 6 p.m. until 9 p.m. Oct. 20 until Nov. 10 at the Carrollton Police Department Training Room (2025 E. Jackson Road). The cost for the program is $5 total for all four Monday classes.
The R.A.D. System is a comprehensive, women-only course that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and risk avoidance, while progressing on to the basics of hands-on defense training. R.A.D. is not a Martial Arts program. Courses are taught by nationally certified R.A.D. Instructors and provide each student with a workbook/reference manual that outlines the entire Physical Defense Program for reference and continuous personal growth. There is also a free lifetime return and practice policy for R.A.D. graduates.
Attendees of the class should dress comfortably. Sweatpants and workout pants/shorts are acceptable, along with comfortable tennis shoes.
To register for the class, call Officer Lauryl Duncan at 972-466-9107 or email lauryl.duncan@cityofcarrollton.com. For more information on the R.A.D. system, visit this website.
