TESTIMONIALS

Mike: Coming from a small island like Kelleys I have no experience on living in a city. I underwent a huge culture shock, which made life hard for me. But then I found the scorpion school of Martial arts, which Mr.Higgins teaches kenpo karate and taekwondo. When I started here I felt like I have a home off of the island, and it let's me see the world around me in another light. I gained more confidence and more control over my emotions in stressful situations while learning the values of a true martial artist. I hope to continue my training under Mr. Higgins, and become the best version of myself.

Valerie & Charles: Since signing Matthew up for karate classes with Mr. Higgins a little more than three months ago, I've seen such personal growth in my grandson's confidence level. His self esteem is much higher too. He used to be very withdrawn and now he is much more outgoing. He looks forward to going to class every single day and even stays after class to learn even more. I've also noticed a difference with his ADHD and depression whereas he is actually able to focus better. Our family feels that signing Matthew up at The Scorpion School Of Martial Arts was one of the best decisions we've made for him. Thank you Mr. Higgins for bringing such a positive program to our community!

Brianna: When I first started karate here. I wasn't sure I would like it. I'll admit the first few classes were scary. Now that I've been in class for awhile,

I love it!

Wendy: My son Erik started classes about 2 months ago for Karate. I can not begin to describe all the positive changes I have seen in my child! He has a better self esteem he has learned valuable lessons while learning Karate and the history as well. It has improved not only focusing, paying attention to detail and self control It is a great positive fun environment that kids and parents love! They are awesome! Thanks Mr. Higgins!

Arne: Joining Scorpion School of Martial Arts at Make It Happen Studios has helped break me out of an inactive life style that had kept me out of shape and very overweight for years. After nearly 3 months of attending classes, I have lost 15 pounds and I find myself becoming stronger and faster every week. I am thoroughly enjoying the friendly atmosphere provided by the staff and the other students. The classes are well structured and Mr. Higgins always takes the time to answer questions and provide detailed instructions as well as practical examples. Beyond the physical and mental health benefits of the exercise, I am growing more and more confident in my abilities to protect myself and others from harm. I've been wanting to learn martial arts my whole life, and the opportunity finally came along when Scorpion Karate opened in our town. I am so pleased with the high quality of the classes, the staff and the facility that I plan on making the pursuit of martial arts a lifelong quest.

Brian: At 41 years of age I have reached that point where you are so busy in life that you become out of shape, find nothing fun or entertaining, and the feeling of a void (a hollow feeling like something is missing) in my life. I was not sure if taking classes at Make it Happen Studios was going to help or not. Since I have joined, I have found more then what I was looking for. They have given me guidance again. They went beyond just the physical part of the martial arts and included lessons for creating the right frame of mind to enjoy life, to understand oneself, to approach different situations in life, and so much more than I can list here. I know some of the students in the children’s class and have come early just to watch and enjoy the positive changes I have seen being instilled into them. Thank you Mr. Higgins for what has been turning out to be a fantastic chapter in my life’s journey. 

Justin: Initially, I was just happy for the fact that Karate classes would make a great distraction for Dakota from all the video games. But now I'm happy to say that I've noticed some positive improvements in his confidence level and his self-esteem. Add to this the fact that he's getting a good physical workout, learning how to protect himself, and discovering a new level of respect for others, and I can't think of anything else that provides as good a return for the investment!
