About Farshad Azad
Farshad Azad is a 10th Degree Senior Grandmaster, known by many simply as Grandmaster Azad. He is a dedicated advocate for child safety with over 40 years of professional experience in personal safety and education.
His journey into personal safety and child protection began over five decades ago. The lifelong mission has remained the same throughout: empower children and parents with the knowledge and skills needed to combat child predators.
Over his long career, he has trained a remarkable range of people and organisations, from young children and their parents to federal agents and elite protection teams.
Who Grandmaster Azad Has Trained
From parents and children to federal law enforcement and executive protection teams, his instruction spans every level of personal safety.
Passion for Child Safety
His unwavering dedication to safeguarding children drives his passion for this critical cause. With a deep seated commitment to the safety and wellbeing of children worldwide, he works tirelessly to protect the innocence and security of young lives in every corner of the globe.
In today's world, where the prevalence of child sexual assault and crimes against children is alarmingly on the rise, his mission to combat these threats has never been more urgent.
Philosophy
Grandmaster Azad has significantly advanced the field of personal safety across a long and successful career. His work includes training and empowering thousands of parents, teachers, childcare professionals, and individuals from every walk of life.
His approach to child safety revolves around empowering children and parents with practical skills to enhance their safety. Child predators are cunning. But we can equip our children with the tools they need to be vigilant, confident, and capable of defending themselves.
He believes strongly that as parents, we are the true superheroes in our children's lives. We hold the power to protect them from an array of dangers, including those who aim to harm them.
One of my most significant contributions to child safety is the creation of CAPE, which stands for Children Anti-Predator Education. The name CAPE was chosen to reflect the idea that parents are the true cape wearing superheroes in their children's lives.
Unleashing Your Children's Inner Warrior
CAPE is not merely a program. It is a battle tested arsenal forged to equip both children and parents with the tools to combat predators and safeguard their futures. It unleashes a trifecta of empowerment.
Mental Resilience
CAPE instills unshakeable confidence and razor sharp awareness in children, replacing fear with a steady resolve that predators cannot break.
Emotional Fortitude
It builds a strong foundation of self worth, shielding children from manipulation and empowering them to stand their ground with anyone.
Physical Empowerment
CAPE goes beyond muscle training. It cultivates quick reflexes and street smart strategies, transforming children from potential victims into agile defenders.
Parents Are the Cornerstone of Protection
CAPE recognises that no program works without the parent. That is why it provides you with tools that are just as important as the ones your children learn.
CAPE is not about paranoia. It is about preparedness. It is about empowering families to navigate the world with confidence, leaving predators to face a generation of fearless, unyielding young people.
A Legacy of Protection
Grandmaster Azad's work extends far beyond teaching. His network and nonprofit involvement have helped protect children on a scale most people never see.
A Network of Experts
He has assembled a formidable network of former armed forces members, law enforcement officers, and intelligence professionals. These individuals contribute their time and expertise to prevent child abductions, combat kidnappings, and dismantle sex trafficking rings across the United States and around the world.
Ident-A-Child Foundation
A distinguished member of the Board of Directors for over two decades. Founded in the 1980s, the organisation focuses on swiftly identifying missing or abducted children using fingerprints, videos, photos, and DNA tracking, facilitating rapid rescue and recovery.

Parents seeking a beacon of hope and a wealth of knowledge to protect their children from child predators can find no one more impressive and dedicated than Grandmaster Azad. His extensive experience, coupled with his unwavering commitment to children's safety, positions him as a true luminary in the realm of personal protection.
What You Must Do Now
I commend you for taking this vital step toward securing your children's safety. Even though talking about sexual assault and child molestation is tough, it is necessary to do so often in order to adequately protect our kids. Child predators often target those they know, and the statistics are indeed alarming.
In the United States alone, 1 out of 3 girls and 1 out of every 10, and according to some sources 1 out of every 5 boys, experience sexual assault by age 18. These are shocking numbers, and they demand our attention.
Child predators are not confined by borders, communities, or any other factors that might give us a false sense of security. They are opportunists who seek their next victim. By taking the initiative to educate yourself and your family through CAPE's personal safety courses, you are actively working to keep your children and family safer.
I look forward to joining forces with you and serving you and your children to the best of my abilities. It is an exciting and deeply honourable endeavour to be your Personal Safety Coach.
