Real Defence Skills For Real World Situations
A Pure Street Defence And Fighting System
RSD teaches practical self-defence.
Our focus is on equipping you with skills to defend and, most importantly, remove yourself from threatening situations swiftly and safely.
Giles Richards, the driving force behind RSD, brings over 20 years experience in martial arts and street defence, having provided close protection for high-profile individuals, including the Jacksons, and other A-list celebrities around the world.
Giles is not just an instructor – he’s a trusted expert in the field.
RSD grew from the street and evolves all the time


What's Involved?
We train for situations that arise in the street, pubs, clubs and vehicles. There is no warm up, as there is no warm up in the street. If it works, we train it – if it doesn’t, we don’t.
You’ll learn to move, strike, cover and shield in all situations. We train indoors, outdoors, in cars, pubs… wherever a situation may arise

IT IS SIMPLE, EFFECTIVE AND TO THE POINT.
RSD can work for anyone and everyone. We teach students from age 15 years and older.

If it’s too complicated and confusing – it doesn’t work.
