Real Self Defense

Terms of use

Last updated October 14, 2026

These terms cover your use of the Real Self Defense mobile and smart TV apps and the website at rsdfitness.com. By creating an account or using the apps, you agree to them.

Train safely

Real Self Defense is physical training. Talk to a doctor before you start, especially if you have an injury, a health condition, or haven’t exercised in a while. Warm up, train at your own pace, and skip any move that hurts. You train at your own risk.

The training teaches self defense skills. It doesn’t guarantee your safety in any situation, and it isn’t a substitute for in-person instruction, medical advice, or calling the authorities when you’re in danger.

Your account

  • You need to be at least 13 to use Real Self Defense, and at least 18 or have a parent’s permission to buy a subscription.
  • Keep your password private. You’re responsible for activity on your account.
  • You can delete your account at any time in the mobile app (Profile → Delete Account).

Founding 50 and pricing

Claiming a Founding 50 spot is free and doesn’t commit you to anything. When the app launches, it’s $30 a month, and you decide then whether to subscribe. Subscriptions bought in the mobile app are billed and managed by Apple or Google under their app store’s terms.

Our content

The videos, workouts, text and design are owned by Real Self Defense and Marcus Kowal. Your subscription lets you use them for your own personal training. Please don’t copy, share, resell or publish them.

Acceptable use

Don’t misuse the service: no attempts to break into accounts or systems, scrape content, or interfere with other people’s use.

Changes and availability

We keep improving the app, so features and content may change. We may update these terms; if the change is significant, we’ll let you know in the app or by email.

Limits of liability

The service is provided “as is”. To the extent the law allows, Real Self Defense isn’t liable for indirect or consequential damages, or for injuries that result from training.
