Download or read book The Studio written by Hikia and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They're rich. They're poor. They're all nationalities and they are beautiful, positive teenage girls. Introducing the Black Belt Babez. Not only do they experience success in the martial arts, they carry the lessons and disciplines into the real world of teenage life. They earn the admiration of their peers as they excel in the gym, the classroom, and the streets. Never shedding their femininity, the girls come to the aid of those around them while struggling with differing family issues in their own lives. Chanel, Candy, Carmen, and Carole take on the troubles and obstacles of teenage life in northern Ohio. Parents, friends, boys, music, cars, and the staples of high school life keep tossing surprises into their daily lives. Each has their own life and own quests, but everything converges in the Right Path Studio, where they sweat and kick their way through more than just a workout. They find out that karate and dance have many parallels to real life. Make the right moves and you'll excel. Make the wrong moves and you'll be kicked aside. Or worse. It doesn't matter your background. Becoming a woman is hard. Especially for those who become woman warriors in the true sense. Sex, drugs, violence, deceit, joy, acceptance -- they're all part of the mantle of ascendancy to womanhood. The girls punch and cartwheel their way through their estrogen-fueled adventures to find who they really are. Sometimes the softer feminine tact works best, sometimes dislocating a few joints is more convenient. The dancers at The Studio may not have the in-ya-face graciousness of the Black Belt Babez, but they're every bit as chic and beautiful. When an up and coming boy band needs some beautiful girls for their video, the teen dancers find themselves tangled in more than the boys' muscular arms. Follow the adventures as the fashion-conscience girls take on cheating boyfriends, jealous girlfriends, gangs, street thugs, kidnappers, drug dealers, and sexploiters. That could mean breaking a fingernail or two.

I have survived a mother who says she cares but is so cold it's almost impossible to believe she actually does and a father who is vulgar and extremely inappropriate. I have also endured bullying, false accusations, manipulation, suicide attempts, and immoral acts.I am a sarcastic and blunt person, so be prepared to roll your eyes, laugh, and possibly cry. Be prepared to be surprised and appalled. Most of all, be prepared to hear a blunt presentation of someone who has persevered through determination, acceptance, and hard-learned lessons.My story is about overcoming anything and everything life can throw at you, and it is not pretty; however, it is enlightening. It is my perspective of the mistakes that school systems, psychiatrists, and parents can make. If you are a person who relates to my story, maybe it will show you the mistakes not to make. Hopefully, this book will open eyes and possibly initiate changes in your life or in the way you address people with psychiatric issues. You never know what someone has gone or is going through. My hope is, after reading this, you will be more open-minded, accepting, and forgiving of people who are different and don't fit into society's box. My biggest goal in writing this is to help people. If this book helps one person, then it was worth reliving all I have gone through while writing this over the last two years.
