Where you can already find SORUDO:

A complex system that saves lives, and creates heroes able to protect everyone who needs it!

SORUDO is a reality-based self-defense system built on solutions that truly have the potential to save lives in real life situations. Such techniques must be easy to learn to make solutions useful in reality for anyone.

Using experience-based teaching methods to combine quick learnability, reality and enjoyability in our courses. This makes SORUDO easy to use, even for people without past experience or outstanding physical capabilities.

We solve any situation from its beginning until its end. Every course include prevention, communication, strategy, and techniques that help you avoid a conflict through effective self-defense, retreating, and potential medical self-treatment. 

We use a science-based approach for constantly testing new techniques and educational methods and analyzing conflicts to offer the most suitable solution in any given sector. 

What we mean by REALITY BASED SELF-DEFENSE

Reality based self-defense means for us the preparation for exactly what a real situations will look like. That means, you have to accept that the attacker is bigger than you, there might be more of them, and they can have weapons as well. 

For example watch this video: 

Where other systems fail, we provide a solution!

Our Mission

Save Lives

We are exceptionally proud that our courses save lives. This is why we aim to spread SORUDO across the globe and save as many lives as we can.

Protect People

We truly believe that a "Hero" is in every one of us. We only have to show people how to protect themself or anyone else who needs it!

Open Eyes

The world of self-defense systems is full of lies and false promises. We hate the bullshit and one of our missions is to debunk it.

Our Vision

We are seeking Franchisees to help us grow into more than 190 countries. 

We aim to expand SORUDO into different countries to create heroes and save lives globally. Our goal is to provide our complex self-defense system for anyone who needs it.

This year we aim to open new branches in at least 10 countries.

How to become a Franchisee

We have plenty of candidates to become Franchisee, our focus is to test you, not just sell the Franchise to you. 

Day 1: Application
After you apply it will take us 1-3 days to evaluate/read your answers and make a little research about you through the links you provided. Once we are done we will get back to you.

First week: Interview 
It's typically done through an online meeting, where we want to discuss your motivation, expectations and answer all of your questions.

Week 1-2: Conditions and non-disclosure agreement
We want to be completely open since beginning and be able to share with you every important information. Therefore, after the interview we will sign with you a non-disclosure agreement.

In the same phase we will provide you with the Franchise contract template, and specify the conditions for your country.

Week 2-4:  Test of cooperation
Our main motivation is not to sell Franchise but to build functional branches. Therefore, we wish to reserve the right to test your skills, and mutual cooperation. At least, you will have to go through:

• 1 day of testing to evaluate your talents and skillset 
• 2 weeks testing project, when we will organize something together in your country to see how the cooperation could look like in future. 

All of this is for being able to tell, if you will be able to handle the role of our Franchisee or not.

Week 3-5:  Personal meeting
The best case scenario is to meet you in person and spend some time together, you can visit our offices, meet your team members and spend some time with us.

Ideally, we also handle some training together, you have to see SORUDO from first hand.

Week 4+  Franchise contract
We will need some formalities from you, criminal record, bank records and other key informations to evaluate if there are no skeletons in the closet.

Branches outside Czech republic and their story:

How our branches perform in different countries

Slovakia

Slovakia start originally as a Franchise a few years ago. This is also how the whole Franchising idea started. Local entepreneur from Slovakia came and suggested to us the opportunity to sell him Slovakia Franchise. We set up franchise conditions, start to prepare him the team of instructors and the first sales starts running. But due to his medical issues, he had to quit to take care about his other companies. We buy the licence back before covid hit, during covid we had to wait couple of years, and now we can finally continue.
Our branch: It is now 1 year since we re-opened. We have 2 sales representatives locally and 2 instructors. Current revenue is 13.000 Eur / month.

Poland

Poland, we developed a few months ago, we hired first sales representative and after 19 days in, she was able to generate first contract with the local clients. A few weeks after that, we organized local camp for instructors, and after 43 days since we hired the first person, we realized first seminars in Poland. Now we continue to gradually grow a local business.
Our branch: It is now 3 months since we started. We have 2 sales representatives locally and 3 instructors. Current revenue is 6.500 Eur / month

Kenya

Kenya also started during Covid, our local partner want to travel in Czech republic to get the training and be able to teach SORUDO in his own security agency. But because of covid restriction we had to travel in Nairobi instead. Since then we are cooperating with dozens of local security agencies, couple of local companies, and we are currently working on penetrating into Kenya Police.
Licenced branch: Local partner one year since start. No stable stream of revenue. Contract-based business. Typical clients are: Government, Security agencies

Brazil

Story of Brazil started with the beginning of NoBullhit brand. Local instructor Eduardo came to the Czech Republic to get the training. He was really skillfull and stayed here more than a month to eventually pass the certification to become Country Instructor in Brazil. Since then, he organized a couple of camps and trained many local instructors. A few of them continue training with us, and open regular SORUDO clubs.
Licenced branch: Local partner one year since start. Non-funcional B2B sales. Business model: Clubs Active clubs: 3 cities

Mexico

First contract from Mexico came out of the blue in 2008, that time this was a really huge deal for SORUDO. A couple of instructors went there including the Chief Instructor and created a team of 12 local instructors inside of the biggest security agencies. Since then, we've travelled there many times for follow-up training. The initial goal was to become official training system for the biggest security agency in South America. But unfortunately, after some political and leadership changes, this project slows down. The local instructors are now on their own, some of them teach SORUDO in their own clubs, some of them continue as contractors in security agencies, and a few of them travel to Czech Republic regularly to train with us and spread the SORUDO as their own business.
No active business model. Locally 12 + SORUDO instructors. A few SORUDO clubs. Training for multiple security agencies
