Love this place! My kids love it so much, they look forward to coming in. They have learned so much in such little time. I cant wait to see them progress. Everyone there is so positive and fun. Such an AMAZING skill they provide. 10/10 would definitely recommend.

My daughter has been going here for at least 3 months and she loves it! The senseis are mostly kids but find that to be the best part. They understand the kids better and have the patience to deal with them. She is definitely learning and we see an improvement in her. She cleans her room almost every day now and her punches have some power behind them. I recommend you sign your kids up here. They will love it and beg you to go every Week.

Enrolled our 10 year old boy. Absolutely LOVE this place. Very professionally run. Very nice people. Everyone works together. Great teaching and leadership. My kids drops his Nintendo Switch like a bag of hammers, and comes running as soon as we tell him its time for his karate class!

What a great place for your kids to learn how to be more confident, disciplined, build good character, and self-defense. Before joining the school my granddaughter was shy and did not like talking in front of an audience. Now we cant get her to stop talking. All of the senseis are good at what they do which encouraged me to join. Which proves it is never too late to learn something new. Thank you Happy Life Mix Martial Arts.

Happy Life Mixed Martial Arts (HLMMA) is beyond exceptional in multiple ways. HLMMA had provided my child with not only considerable self defense skills to carry with him throughout life, but also prioritizes teaching students to respect their families and their community. All instructors demonstrate through their actions a genuine care for the development of students character. I’m thoroughly impressed with all aspects of HLMMA, and am thrilled they are part of the Apple Valley community. I recommend HLMMA to anyone looking to provide their child with excellent skills and needed structure in life.

I cannot say enough great things about Happy Life Mix Martial Arts. My husband and I are so happy we found this dojo and our children love to come here. This is such a great place to teach the kids discipline, obedience, focus, accountability, character development, and much more. They make sure that every child feels welcomed and included as part of the team. The senseis are amazing, they are very good at what they do, and they make sure every student gets the time and attention that they need to learn the requirements for each belt level. They are all so patient and ready to help any student that may need a little more assitance learning a certain technique. I would definately recommend Happy Life Mix Martial Arts to anyone looking for an exceptional dojo to sign up with!!

My 7 year old son is the one who first saw this place and begged me over and over again to take him there everytime we passed by. We finally stopped by and were greeted by Sensei Samir and I was immediately impressed by this young man! Just in his ability to be extremely welcoming and extremely informative. My son did the two free lessons and loved it. Ever since we signed him up, its been an enjoyable experience. I almost dont want to write an amazing review because this place is a hidden gem and sometimes feels like its busting at the seems in regards to parent seating availability... but the owner and the senseis definitely deserve your business and all the success that comes thier way! Im so grateful my son joined classes here. This family is incredible and so talented. I love the positive and fun environment they provide. My son has learned so much already and Im am continuously impressed with the way they run their classes. The dad sensei coaches the 4 young senseis but the senseis are so skilled and so mature, its unreal how professional they all are at thier ages! And I watch them as they all show extreme patience and gentleness to the students even when the students are off task or not paying attention or doing a technique incorrectly. They speak quietly and calmly and so respectfully as they coach and correct..one critique and I am not angry about it just want it to be known, they do often run late or over time. But this usually means they are still teaching or still giving the students an enjoyable game challenge. If you are looking for a place to learn karate or mixed martial arts, look no further this one is it. We love it here.

Great place to take you children! Positive atmosphere! The Senseis are AMAZING! Great with the students and very patient and theral. They take their time in teaching and will even go above and beyond with extra practices if need be for no extra charge!!! My son loves going, we definitely enjoy HLMMA!

After MANY different dojo experiences, I found THIS place to be the best in the high desert....great training with quality sensis and the dojo MASTER is such a easy going person...if you are looking to get your family involved with building confidence and learn a skill...look no further...

This is, without a doubt, the best Karate Place.
