Kicks Unlimited Karate - Stoughton

"Can’t say enough about the owners and how wonderful they are with kids. Their afterschool program is great as they pickup and bus kiddos from school, then have so many activities available. Karate is taught to after school kiddos, as well as dance and tumbling. If you’re looking for a more active afterschool environment for your kids, or they’re interested in trying karate, they often have free trials."

"I wanted to take some time to tell you about Matt Griffey at Kicks Unlimited in Stoughton Wisconsin. Greta Began her Journey in Karate in 2020. I joined her in 2021. I was tired of watching and wanted to start a journey of karate with my daughter. I saw a flyer at a store that was on the ground. So, I said, wow, free Gee, and a week or so of classes. Sweet. We tried other activities, but nothing stuck or was of interest to my daughter. I liked the “I Yass” and watching Greta Belt them out with vigor. She caught on quick. She was very shy at first. Kicks is dedicated to changing Lives and teaches many core Values to help us become better people. To be more Patient, to be respectful and to show kindness to others. I love how Matt addresses others and calls them friend. Matt was an influential mentor that helped us personal in more ways than I can think of. Mr. Sheets is an excellent teacher. He instructs and leads a room full of students with precision and dedication to improve students’ abilities on the matt and off the mat. I only wished there were more classes. I would go every day if it was possible. I enjoyed the camaraderie with others and helped me make lasting friendships with other students. For Greta as well. Covid made it tough to get Greta involved with other kids. Kicks became our place to go and feel welcomed. I recommend any one of all ages to Join Kicks. We had a great outcome in our Family."

"Our kids have been attending karate lessons at Kicks Unlimited Stoughton for about 7 months now. I can’t praise Kicks highly enough. The instructors are absolutely amazing with the kids and it’s so clear that the kids all look up to Mr. Griffey. They aren’t just teaching karate here- they’re instilling values like respect, focus, and confidence, helping to shape character, and teaching life lessons. The Kicks staff offer the kids so many additional opportunities besides just lessons, like Parents Night Out or marching in local parades. I’ve seen so many positive changes in my kids since they started at Kicks and we’re looking forward to many more years of learning karate here!"

"We started about started about a month ago. Karate came recommended from my sons equine therapist and social worker. He has adhd and Dmdd which cause him to be violently unregulated in big social situations. With medication we were able to get him to the point of being able to join group classes, and we decided to give karate a try. Mr. Griffey met with us one on one to explain the program, and then invited us back to try a group class. It’s been going phenomenal! I can’t explain how happy I am with the program. All of the instructors are very patient and kind! They see the times when it’s important to give words of encouragement and also constructive feedback. Even in one months times the changes I have seen in my son are so noticeable. He is so excited to continue this journey with earning higher belts and competing. I didn’t know he had a drive in him, and I see it now. Thanks kicks unlimited! Keep up all the amazing things you do!"

"We joined kicks unlimited because our son needed more exercise and focusing skills. (We have a very active 4 year old!) I am happy to say that he looks forward to going to class and tells us how awesome Mr. Griffy is on a daily basis. (He’s like a celebrity in our house.) He is so so great with the kids! Although he is goofy and fun, he knows how control a class of kids with the right amount of structure and sternness. When we first joined, my 4 year old was nuts, he was all over the place. He was the kid running away, doing somersaults in the corner, and always being silly. I proudly watched my child today follow along with all the sequences and forms, follow directions, and stay focused for the entire lesson. I fully believe he is learning so many new skills through these classes! I am SO HAPPY we chose kicks unlimited! Again, my child LOVES going! I truly believe that’s because of the positive environment they have created here. I encourage you to choose kicks unlimited if you’re contemplating a sport/facility for your child."
