Yellow Book Commercial

Kwanjang

3rd Black Belt
Thank you Yellow Book for using martial arts in one of their tv ads. Have any of you seen it. It's priceless! A kid comes home from school with under wear stretched out from what appears to be massive wedgie. He comes home looking sad from the abuse, goes to a cool computer and types in martial arts. So, my fellow martial artist, whats your take on that Commercial. It is free advertising for martial arts schools.

Live Long and Prosper
 
I have seen martial arts appear in various commercials over the years and generally I am glad about it. It helps give visibility to martial arts which helps its growth.
 
I thought it was a cute ad. Was your student the kid, or one of the various instructors shown?
 
Neither. I have seen that tv spot like ten times today. I say keep running it, since I advertise in Yellow Book. :lol:
 
Yes Martial Arts have gone main steam now, commercial schools everywhere and 1 year Black Belts. God Bless our society for letting this happen.:soapbox::erg:
 
The ad itself is nice.

Not a big deal to me if that happens. 1 year black belts. It is their butts that get wasted when they attempt things outside their skill level. I have enough sense to train properly. I am not concerned with how a outsider views my martial art because as long as I am confident in it's usage I am happy with that. I would also rather that than having it fade away into obscurity. There is always gonna be people that dilute MA and use it to make a buck. It is unavoidable on this capitalist planet.
