T-shirt Design Brief

I am looking for a tee shirt design with an attitude!

I own a security and self defense company called Castle Defensive. I offer cutting edge self defense training to adults and youths. This design will be for my youth program which is primarily oriented toward High School aged youths 14-18. The young people that take my course are truly unique and I want my Tee shirt design to reflect that. My students can best be described as scholar/warriors. Most are honors students but are breaking the stereotype of the NERD. In my course these students learn real-world self defense tactics used by elite law enforcement and military units. This is not some martial arts nonsense. We teach and operate only with what is proven to work in the real world. Physically we use Tony Blauer's SPEAR/PDR system for whom I am a certified instructor. Just YouTube him for inspiration. He is an amazing speaker and quite possibly a genius. You are guaranteed to learn something and you will have a better idea what we do.

Here are some ideas/concepts I have been throwing around:

As a group we have been calling ourselves the Ministry of Unorthodox Students.

I like many of the tee shirts designs found on the Black Label Society website.

#smartweapons

Stay off the X

Virtue, Warriorhood, Empiricism, Realism, Liberty
Realism, Liberty, Warriorhood, Virtue, Empiricism, Freedom

I am the student in who…The ways of the old blend with the new.

Fighter (one who struggles), Warrior Scholar. (Latin Miles, Milites, Bellator)

Warrior - Bellator
Scholar - Philologus/Scholaticus
Athlete - Athleta

What do I envision the ministry of unorthodox students to act like:
• Understand the central role power and the threat of force plays in many human interactions and that this is always at play despite our "civilized society" or how we wish things would be.
• Understand that Liberty is the state in which people are most content.
• Understanding that security and freedom are two sides of the same coin it is the responsibility of all enlightened people to seek warrior hood.
• The wise man is a humble man because believing in your own infallibility is the first step toward tyranny.
• The relentless pursuit of empiricism should drive our goals.

Nice to have
