Amazing experience! I can’t say enough great things about this martial arts school. Master Garrison and Katie are incredibly knowledgeable, professional and truly care about you. I graduated from Battle Babes and my faith has grown as well as my skills and confidence. The environment is welcoming, clean, and a great place for beginners like myself. Highly recommend to anyone looking to learn in a supportive and positive community!

We love this academy and our time there. I had all three kids enrolled in Master Garrison's class. Both of my daughters also LOVED taking lessons from his wife as well, she's a thoughtful teacher. As a parent, I appreciate how he intentionally reinforces ideas like strength, courage, bravery, and respect. Each time they enter the mat the students bow and when they exit they make eye contact, bow, and shake hands with the entire class. These small routines made a big difference. We are sad we are moving from this school.

The kindest instructors you’ll meet! Clean place. In addition to learning martial arts, you are also taught respect and life skills. I took the battle babes self defense class for woman and highly recommend to any age for woman!

Cannot say enough nice things about this program. Master Garrison is amazing! My daughter has been in for about a year, she gained confidence, flexibility, balance and I really believed it helped her not need physical therapy any longer. She loves going which is wonderful for a mom to see. I love that she loves an activity so much and learns while doing it, but doesn’t realize that she is learning because she is having fun. So beneficial on so many levels. Thank you Tiger Academy for such a wonderful program!
