Defend University has campuses located in Phoenix, New York and Ireland. We are a research and development group that explores self-defence, control & restraint and defensive tactics, techniques and strategies.
The three campuses broaden the reach of the group as it works to discover and highlight effective self-defence and defensive tactics programs, methods, strategies, instructors and techniques. The mission of Defend University is discovering, developing and disseminating information on truly effective methods of self-defence for the citizen, health professional, the police and security officer. The emphasis of the group is on exploring methods that are not style specific and offer the best chances for success by the user whether in the performance of professional duties or as a private citizen concerned with personal protection.
Ray Butcher is the director of the Ireland campus; Steve Kardian is the director of the New York campus and Brad Parker heads up the program out of Phoenix.
