There's rarely a cop around when you need one. But there's always a good solid elbow strike.

this isn't good in my oppinion
people might think that students from the martial art academy are aggresive, i mean, this could be interpetated that the students are the one causing the fight (not self-defence)

Hmm...I'm not sure you can conclude that the students might be aggressive when you set up the ad in a dubious neighborhood, ripe scene for a mugging, and the lack of police protection at your side. Don't know that I love the execution, but I admit that's very subjective.

I like the idea. I just think that they could have been more creative with the copy line. I'm sure there's a better word for 'elbow strike'. Round-house kick to the head, perhaps?
