Rape Escape: Beyond Common Sense Self-Defense, Level 1

It all starts here with the foundation of one of the easiest to learn, and easiest to use systems of self-defense that really allows a woman to effectively defend herself against a man who is trying to sexually assault her.

This system is unlike any other you have seen before.  It does NOT rely on any of the tricks or mythical techniques you have heard or seen like poking the guy in the eyes and running or stomping on his foot to make him let go.  It was formulated over a period of seven years with hundreds of women participating in a veritable living laboratory.  Gone are the complicated wrist grab escapes or the ludicrous and silly techniques like poking the guy under the nose with a rolled up newspaper (no lie, this is still taught in some programs!).  

In fact, Rape Escape discourages the use of all those techniques of striking, eye gouging or fighting that encourages or enables the guy to hit back.  If you try to fight the guy like a man would, the guy is going to win!  But, Rape Escape Level 1 gives you a fighting foundation, a platform that levels the playing field, allowing you to fight back effectively while protecting your most valuable asset.

In this tape you'll learn the six basic principles that allow the Rape Escape graduates to effectively defeat full-power attacks from male black belts, even if they are over 200 pounds!

You'll learn solutions to nine of the most common sexual assault scenarios:

1.  He's lying on top of you between your thighs and rape is imminent;
2.  He's choking you into unconsciousness while between your thighs;
3.  He's beating your face as he's attempting to rape you;
4.  He approaches you in an effort to get close enough to grab you;
5.  He grabs your wrist in order to take you somewhere private;
6.  He grabs your throat or your clothes from the front;
7.  He attacks with the dreaded blitz from behind and is now choking you into submission;
8.  He has you on all fours and is preparing to rape you from behind;
9.  He forces you to kneel in front of him by yanking your hair and is preparing to rape you orally.

Many of these scenarios are not covered in most self-defense programs because they are not the types of attacks that male martial artists are trained to expect or defend against! 

You'll see the solutions to these problems from two different angles, in regular motion and in slow motion, both shot on professional quality, state-of-the-art digital video cameras.  

Plus, the tape includes a review of all the techniques with a special slow motion, stop-action technique that highlights the key areas for you to remember.  Use this as a quick review to periodically refresh the techniques in your mind.

You'll see plenty of real Rape Escape students doing techniques at full-power against the instructors who wear specially-padded suits and armor on the key target areas.  See for yourself how the system works with realistic attacks.
