Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Milwaukee: what do users think?

Mark S (Mark): Great place to learn Jiu-jitsu in a fun, team-oriented environment. Sky and the other instructors are great.

Jason Molitor: I can not be happier with my decision to train at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Milwaukee under Skye, Dianne, and Kevin. My daughter and I agree that it has been a great experience.For all you 40 year olds out there know that it isn't too late! The Gracie Combatives is the only way to learn this most efficacious self defense without all the worries and fears that may accompany any new student.The greatest obstacle I had was that I was so out of shape that I couldn't dream of learning how every other school would teach this martial art. The Gracie Combatives program is perfect for out of shape desk workers like me!Many also have injuries over the years that keep them from taking on anything else physically. The way the program is set up it is all about keeping you safe and injury free. This is so different from all other ways of learning Jiu-Jitsu that I wish I knew about this far sooner!I could go on and on. The Gracie Combatives program at Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Milwaukee is exactly what I want for my self defense.The BullyProof program for my daughters is amazing as well. Check it out!!!!!!

Kevin Roquemore: Greatest place to train Jiu-Jitsu in Milwaukee. This academy offers both a beginner friendly experience and classes for seasoned grapplers. The Instructors care about their students and they demonstrate and explain each technique in great detail. If you ever wanted to try Jiu-Jitsu look no further than Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Milwaukee.

Tracy Zundel: Excellent environment and supportive staff. Safe training. Valuable for kids and adults alike.

Jessie Habel: As someone who is plagued with an obnoxious amount of anxiety and fear making the leap to start the Women’s Empowered course was a hard one. I didn’t know what to expect and didn’t know if this was something I could even do. But, I am incredibly thankful I gave it a shot because it has already become one of the best decisions I have ever made. Every single person I have met there has been beyond welcoming and I instantly felt like part of the family. While I have only done a handful of classes so far and I already feel more confident and safer out in the world.Now for the instructors: Have you ever had the thought that someone was just meant to be in their profession? They’re just so passionate and good at it that you couldn’t imagine them doing anything else? That’s Skye and Diane. They have this amazing ability to take a topic that could be triggering for some and make it into the safest place you’ve ever been. Class is fun, informative and I walk away each time feeling more confident in myself.If you are reading this review trying to decide if you should try this out- just do it!10/10 recommend

Dylan Bialas: Fantastic instructors and a very welcoming environment. Can’t say enough great things about this place!

Matt Lowe: I love being a member here. They are so welcoming, encouraging, and supportive. I apprciate being apart of the family and look forward to growing further in my BJJ skills and as a person.

Steve: Skye and Dianne make you feel welcome. There’s no shortage of passion coming from the leadership here. I leave every class knowing I was taught by someone who truly cares. On the mat, everyone is kind and willing to help regardless of their skill level. If you’re considering giving this a shot, let this review be the weight that tips the scale.

Dan Hall: Absolutely amazing place! Owner is honest outgoing and very personable. Beginners to advanced are encouraged and welcomed. They have been so open and accommodating for my kids in their bully proof classes. I can't say enough positive things. Strongly recommend them

Andrew Gile: you’re going to love it here

Akash Thakkar: I dropped in for a private lesson while traveling and had an amazing time. Skye is an incredible instructor, and I wish I had more time to train here!

Lisa Powell: Focus is on technique. Skye has built a great community at the academy!

Travis: Despite coming to this academy with no prior grappling or wrestling experience, Jiu Jitsu/Self-Defense has been so much fun to learn and I recommend it to everyone of all ages. Skye, Kevin, Joe, and all the other instructors have been so welcoming to me, and it's been a pleasure to learn alongside them and the other amazing students at the academy. I would rate this 6 stars if I could! Join this academy today - you'll wish you signed up sooner!

Tara Clark: Love this place and the people! I highly recommend their Women's Self Defense program. ALL women can benefit from this training...regardless of your age, size or fitness level.

Cole Powell: I've gone to this academy for 6 years now and I always have a good time. The people are great. The instructors are unparalleled. And there's just this sense of community you can't get anywhere else

Rachelle Silcox: I am part of the taekwondo class in South Jordan Utah. The class is very informative and worth every penny.

Frank V: In my ignorance I learned that this was high level taekwondo. The instructors were highly trained and skilled in their Art. The amount of discipline and life skills taught here will carry with you for a lifetime. Can't speak enough good things about this dojo. I still think those cats were fast as lightning.

Rick Abreu: My kids just had a very cool first class with Master Lee. Both enjoyed it and we got an unbelievable instant "discipline boost" today 😁. I also took the class, awesome stuff to get the body moving.

Theresa Armstrong: Family oriented,very professional, accommodating place for kids and families. Staff are awesome and kids also teach classes with supervision. Great environment for learning for kids and adults.

Kunyoung Kim: My son has been going to JKLee since we moved to WI from NY two years ago. My son started taekwondo when he was 5 and he loves it. I am glad he found a sabumnim and dojang and that he likes and can grow with. Can’t wait till his little brother joins too!

Black Belt Leadership Academy: what do users think?

Rachel Waughlen: Truly the best! I wasn’t sure my daughter would be that into karate but it’s so much more than that. They teach control and discipline in such a fun and creative way. The black belts have such enthusiasm about what they do and their interaction with each child. I have no negatives about this place.

Jennifer Apps: Anyone looking for that "thing" for your child, that activity that helps them feel confident, strong, build coordination and athleticism - this is IT! The instructors as all incredible, the curriculum is wholistic, and the experiences build character and leadership!

Linsi Jean: This dojo is special. In addition to learning martial arts, the students learn how to become good leaders and good people.

Sifu Alison: Owned and managed by some of the greatest people. They are truly dedicated to enriching people’s martial arts journey and their lives.

Pittman Family: We love Black Belt Leadership Academy for our little ninja! The team fosters an excellent learning environment with focus on respect and discipline. Truly developing future leaders through their techniques! Highly recommend for anyone looking at starting or continuing their karate journey!

Michael Hemmingsen: This place has a very positive environment with super friendly instructors... yet they still manage to quickly deal with any kids who start to disrupt the classes. My son left because of other activities, but we will surely come back here if he wants to continue karate in the future.

B V3: I’m glad we chose BBLA for our son. Sensei is great. It amazes me that he can remember ALL of the student names. All the staff is nice and it’s a family friendly atmosphere. I really enjoy that you can go to as many classes that are available for your group. Keep Up the Great Work!!

Monica Camacho: Great Sensei and very knowledgeable staff. My son loves his classes and is so proud of each belt he earns. They also teach responsibility and respect. An all around good choice for anyone thinking of having their kids take karate lessons.

Paul Crawford: Amazing teachers and promotion of self-worth, self-discipline, and confidence.

A&B W: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,Value

Rubie Mizell: My Kids love it

Normand Kaegler: And obstacle course days. We go at least 2 times a week and he can’t wait to go to everyone of them. Thank y’all for all u do.

Stephen Fennelly: This is truely a 5 star establishment. Do not be misled a couple of uneducated and reckless reviews. My son and I have both been members here for 3 1/2 years and this has been a wonderful experience for both of us. While they focus mostly on karate, we have also had the opportunity to learn weapon skills, grappling and a smattering of other disciplines which is perfect for becomming a well-rounded martial artist in today's MMA focused world. Whether you are here to learn some effective self-defense skills along with a great work-out, or to become a competition caliber martial artist, I highly recommend Black Belt Leadership Academy.

World Martial Arts Academy: what do users think?

Mick Jones: I cannot recommend this place enough. The Grandmaster and other instructors are patient, safe, knowledgeable, and listen well. They bring the kids along at a good, safe speed. No instant black belts, no screaming at the kids. They have a list for home that also is part of the belt leveling process. Thank you

steven thompson: Great place to have your kid there to take classes

John Earle: Positive:Quality,Value

Kill Joy: I went here when i was younger, and i had a blast. Although the fact that its somewhat caused. My younger brother took the self defense into a new way of attacking family and friends. Now a days im a lightsaber dullest instructor, teaching the ways of the force through a lightsaber. In other words this place is great for teens and young adults who get bullied alot but not for young kids. May the force be with you.

Joe Meinerz: Great family values instilled by the phenomenal staff.

YeonJung Darling: Attend WMAA tournament recent. Staffs ran event smoothly and professionally. Demo team performance was awesome!

Fredric Dennis Williams: , while most schools have less experienced and less qualified instructors. The grandmaster personally oversees the instructors as they teach, and students usually are in groups of two to four per instructor. This assures close attention to every aspect of the training, and because instructors are observed by both the grandmaster and the head instructor, and because instructors are trained each day, the quality of the teaching is high.We left a previous larger taekwondo center because a teacher often had 15-20 students, and I found my sons were being offered a chance to test for higher belts when they were clearly not doing well. This, in my view, was to assure that they completed the training contract as quickly as possible. If they did not complete, the training was to continue for free after the contract ended. I noticed that some of the students with black belts were barely able to complete simply actions. That. to me, was unacceptable.The Grandmaster has been teaching for more than 25 years and began his training in South Korea. He is really outstanding and I feel fortunate to have found an academy that offers high quality training.

Dan Sheldon: Our family has been a part of the WMAA community for the last 4 years. What started out as a one day a week after school activity for my children has turned into lifelong goals for our family. The staff is welcoming, patient and are great role models for my children. Absolutely recommend WMAA to anyone interested in martial arts.

Praveen Robert: Our son has been going to WMAA for a couple of years and we like WMAA very much, the instructors and the discipline that’s being followed as well as the attention they give to the kids are so great. Highly recommend this institution.

Jweiss 500: The perfect place for anyone of all ages to learn tae Kwon do. Also, the staff is very friendly.

Marly: After investigating several other Taekwondo schools, we decided that WMAA was the best fit for my 3 boys. They have the best instructors, a great instructor to student ratio, comparable rates & staff that truly cares about my family!

Ashley Shusta: My kids have been going here four four years. They truly enjoy going to class. As a parent I love the interaction and how they really care about the students. And to say that the Grandmaster is one of a kind! He is always willing there for his students no matter what. I personally would recommend it to everyone!!!

Scott Kuehn: I have been involved with a few martial arts schools over the years but now that I am working out at WMAA I feel like I have found a home. The instructors are incredibly skilled and very good at teaching TKD. Grandmaster Yun's knowledge of tae kwon do is second to none. He makes everyone of every ability better and truly cares about his students. If you are looking for a martial arts school this is the one.

mzerwinski: WMAA is an excellent place to learn and develop both martial art skills as well as physical fitness. I have been learning from Grand Master Yun for over 20 years at this point and hope to continue to do so for many more. His methods of instruction as well as those of the instructors that he trains are outstanding. If you're looking to learn and grow as a martial artist WMAA is an excellent place to be.

Ashley Johnson: My son has been taking classes for about a year and he loves it! Great instructors, close location, fun activity nights, perfect for the whole family, and valuable life lessons. He looks forward to class each week. I recommend for students of all ages!

Rene Guzman: The instructors are super respectful and knowledgeable. Great place for kids and their parents. Highly recommended.

The staff are knowledgeable, friendly, and it's such a clean and cool studio. Mr. Sorce has done a great job with his establishment and has been a mainstay in downtown South Milwaukee for decades.

Robin Peierl: The teachers are so wonderful

Brooke Hall: Our 8 and 6 year have been coming to Sorce since doing the school program in February. Mr. Sorce and the instructors are all amazing. Their passion for martial arts shows in their interaction with students and parents. Both of our children did their first tournament in April after only a few short months. Everyone was so supportive and worked with them to make sure they were prepared. Highly recommend giving them a try if your children are interested.

Jacquelyn Hillestad: If you're looking to sign your child up for marital arts, I highly recommend Sorce! My son loves the martial arts program. They teach the kids respect, discipline, how to build confidence , focus, and so much more that is building such great character in my 5 year old. I can't say enough good things about the instructors they are patient and constantly encouraging the kids. I'm so glad I made the decision to sign him up he is learning alot of valuable life skills while learning to defend himself as well.

Lea Muehl: Our son, age 5, started classes not to long ago, and he absolutely loves it. The teachers are so wonderful with the lil' dragons. The teacher's help meet and enforce home rules, while still making the classes fun for the kids, taking the time to make the experience personalized for every child.

360 Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy: what do users think?

Kelly Kohls: I would highly recommend this gym/family to anyone who is looking to start or continue on their BJJ journey.

Matt Florentine: I have always been someone who likes to know why we do the things we do. The coaches at both locations are awesome with explaining the details and the why behind it all.Very friendly welcoming community of people. Everyone really comes together to help each other grow and be better each day.

Mario Morse: My son has trained here for over 2 years…I have noticed improvement in his spatial skills among other good attributes, mainly from the camaraderie and strong instruction. My son has gained not only teammates, but friends off the mat. I was looking for way to be closer to my son and not to coddle him, this was the Best thing I could have ever done for him to develop humility and focus. Truly recommend for any young child who needs strong peers. All the instructors have a keen sense to teach. Truly has changed our lives.

Matt Hagemann: I have been training BJJ for 10 years now, and have called 360 my home gym for almost two years.The culture here is exactly what I had been looking for. Ego is low, skill is high, and it's evident that most genuinely care about your growth and health.Professor Scott is top-notch. He is very detailed, and teaches from his extensive competitive and training experience.I am proud to call 360 my home gym. It is a gem. I would wholeheartedly recommend checking it out.

Elizabeth Boyd: I joined 360 Jiu Jitsu looking for a competitive grappling sport, not knowing anything about jiu jitsu at the time. Over the last year and half, I learned so much and have developed my own skillset from world class instructors and teammates. They have fully welcomed me into this amazing jiu jitsu community. I’ve never been around so many supportive people in one place. We have become a family, we train hard, push each other to greatness, laugh together and even cry together. I love competing with this team. Everyone’s loyalty and dedication are truly unique. How many other schools have a head coach who is a world class champion black belt who takes the time with all levels, even the very beginners and kids. Scott’s patience, passion and love for the sport radiates through his instruction, attention to detail and relationships with all the 360 members and families. There is no other school that could ever compare to what we have at 360!

Braden Grimord: A year ago, I became a part of 360. On my first day, I stepped in feeling nervous, unsure of what lay ahead. However, to my delight, I was greeted with warmth and openness by everyone. Scott, our coach, has been exceptional. Reflecting on my journey thus far, I can confidently say that joining the 360 team was one of the best decisions I've made.

Brian Geraghty: Top notch instruction, great workout, good people and very clean!

Carolyn Steeves Powers: as “the place” to train in Wisconsin. He wasn’t wrong. The quality of instruction is easily one of the best in the state. It also has an awesome culture— the focus is on technical, intelligent, clean jiujitsu-- I am always challenged to improve, but I have never felt unsafe. “Meat head” jiujitsu

Latrice Knighton: Coach Scott has created an unique training facility. All of the instructors are dedicated and care. Our 6 year old twins were able to learn in a small environment where Coach Justin and Coach Kam focused on technique and life skills like listening and follow through. We recently moved out of state and miss this crew seeing other gyms are no where near this dedicated and talented with focus on small group to learn technique.

Aniruddh Kapoor: 10/10. Love this gym.

Alex Vale: Dropped in from out of town and had a great experience in terms of how lessons are organized and how people at the gym roll.The lesson stays on a topic and build upon the same topic. The instructor welcomes questions and answers them well showing how things work visually too. People aren't trying to take your head off during the rolls and provide opportunities to try/understand techniques rather than focusing on winning a roll.

Dennis Wong: and the location is great with plenty of parking.The training here is superb as well. Coach Huston does a great job teaching the adult class and even though I’ve only been up there a few times, I remember everything he teaches which show how effective it is.The people here are also friendly. They never hesitate to help out someone new and if you are looking for tough competition, this is the place to be in Milwaukee. Overall, I wish I could make it up here more but I live too far.

Erin Cannon: We have been part of this gym for almost four years. We have crossed so many hurdles as a family and this gym and coaches have never faltered once. The coaches and the teammates understand loyalty and commitment, from youth to adult our family has learned and gained so much being part of such an incredible club. This place has given us so much more than we ever expected.

Jeremy Anderson: My 16 year old Daughter and I joined the 360 team back in January and by May I medaled in my first tournament with only 1 stripe. I credit that purely to Scott's training. We've both had an amazing experience.The gym is very diverse and welcoming. Scott has an unmatched amount of patience, but really knows when to turn up the heat and drive us to the next level. The 360 team members couldn't be more welcoming. It's made up of athletes at all levels and there is always someone willing to roll and match your pace to help you grow.There is no other gym I would recommend more!

Ceridwen Pruitt: I’ve been a student at four different jiu-jitsu academies in my four years of training and 360 was the first one I felt valued and respected. I came to 360 after hearing from others that they were the ones doing well in competitions and wish I would have started here from the get go. You always have high level training partners, everyone is kind, and the instruction is so good you’ll feel like every day is a seminar.

Ben Hall: Whether you’re an adult or looking for your kids the coaches at 360 care and give a very welcoming experience. My daughter joined in September 2021 and was immediately hooked. I recommend this place to everyone and will go to bat for Scott Huston 360.

Melissa Bovee: My husband and son have had a great experience training at 360. Scott runs a high quality academy with passionate, engaged coaches. We highly recommend to anyone looking to start or continue BJJ.

Kellsie Fink: Our 8 year-old started Jiu jitsu at 360 a little over a year ago, and we're impressed with his progress in such a short amount of time. He has gained a lot of confidence, and I love how the kids will stop to help their partners with their form while practicing moves with each other--it provides them opportunities to be leaders. Scott and all of the coaches have been amazing and we're so happy we found this gym.

Bill Kawczynski: My 5 y.o. son has been attending 360 for six months. He has had nothing but good experiences. The coaches, facility, and the other students are all great. Highly recommend!

Arena Law Offices LLC: Kid instructors are used to teach. To become more aware of soft social skills. To learn empathy and compassion to promote great leaders

Hasna Osman: Nice place to learn and build discipline.

The black belt instructors who teach at J.K. Lee Black Belt Academy are extremely helpful and kind. Additionally, J.K. Lee Black Belt Academy has really helped me grow as a better person and learn ways to defend myself if I ever need it. Overall, J.K. Lee Black Belt Academy has been really helpful to me and others, is a very positive learning environment, and has helped me discover more about myself among many other things. Thank you to everyone at J.K. Lee Black Belt Academy, who have been so helpful to me.

Robert Kohn: The entire staff at JK Lee in Fox Point are amazing! Watching how they work with my kid and the life lessons that go with it, has inspired me to take up class as well.Being on the wrong side of 50 leaves one with apprehension to try something new like Taekwondo. I can attest that their instructors are great at working with people who are NOT in the best of shape.Great place! Highly recommend!

Max Barry: My 6 year old son and I started at J.K. Lee pre-pandemic and had such a great experience. Master Gendelman is a one of a kind teacher that doesn't just teach you Taekwondo but also serious life skills while keeping class fun and interesting. If you are considering Taekwondo at all or looking for your child to learn discipline or self sufficiency I highly recommend JK Lee

Pura Vida BJJ & MMA: what do users think?

Levi Johnson: Great gym. Amazing coaches, and people. Always do what they can to make you better. Having a great time no matter what

Christina Wenman: Best gym in town!! Coach Jake is awesome 😎

Robert Mrotek: Top academy in Wisconsin. The students here are spoiled and don't even know it

Courtnie Korpela: Amazing gym all around. They have everything you could want: BJJ, MMA, kickboxing, wrestling, fitness center, a kids program, and leveled classes for both beginners and advanced practitioners.

FlexBoyBrown: Great gym to be at. The environment is welcoming and if you’re looking to compete one day, you’ve come to the right place.

Nick Klein: Great atmosphere, all the staff are very welcoming and professional.

Michelle Valdez: My son was not at all happy about his dad signing him up for martial arts and boxing but after just 1 class here he is super excited to be in classes. He had a really good time. The people who are running it are really nice, I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for BJJ and boxing classes

Edwin Jimenez: It's a great environment full of all types of friendly personalities from kids to adults it's all friendly people that make you feel like part of a family.

Chosun Black Belt Academy: what do users think?

Duncan Peterson: Great place, Master Peterson always treats me like family 😉

Christopher Martingilio: I have been training and teaching martial arts for over 30 years. I've had the privilege of training with Master Peterson for almost 20 years. He is a man full of knowledge and passion for the martial arts. I've observed his teaching and interactions with students and feel that he is a model for all other instructors and schools to follow. I highly recommend Chosen Black Belt Academy!

Bushrah Bakhsh: Amazing experience for my 4 year old. Teachers were fantastic and helped him really enjoy his time. Master Peterson such a friendly and welcoming teacher. Been an absolutely wonderful time and something we would consider long term. Grateful we came across this institution

Adam Langowski: Great family environment. They have taught our son respect, given him the courage to stand up for himself, and work ethic. They also have many family and social events throughout the year that our son likes to take part in. He has a difficult time socializing, but not at Chosun.

Eric Strehlow: are dedicated to EVERYONE’S growth.My son and I went from zero to black belt here and are still learning and having fun. Come join us.

Lisa McFadden: We've had a great experience so far. I wish it was bigger and had more seating for spectators. Parents stay to watch and there's no place to sit and as I stand and wait I'm in the way of students coming and going and watching and it's just awkward.But my son is having fun and learning so we're following through on our commitment of course.

Colleen H: We absolutely love Chosun. My son has been attending there for over two years now. He has gained so much self confidence, physical endurance and RESPECT. We struggled with respect at home, toward mom. After a few classes his attitude changed so much. I am truly grateful for Master Peterson and all of his amazing instructors. Chosun continues to teach my son lesson he will use for the rest of his life.

Kevin Cherney: Our son has been training there for a number of years, starting as a Little Ninja and has also participated in both their Demo Team and STORM Team. He has learned so much more than just Tae Kwon Do there to help him develop both physically and mentally. Master Peterson and the rest of the instructors have been excellent and treat you like part of the family. Highly recommend!

Eve V: Chosun BBA instructors are passionate in teaching the arts of Taekwondo to enhance the body and mind. The effectiveness of their teaching is reflected through my 2 daughters and the way they treat others with respect and kindness. The ongoing updates and communication between emails, text messages, and Spark Member app is super helpful and efficient with our busy family lifestyle. Master Peterson is very involved and attentive to the needs of each individual and family. We feel like one big happy family at each class, event, and gathering.

Mbogne Ba: We love Chosun! It is truly a family affair at this school. Master Peterson and his staff really care about the kids and them growing up to be good humans through the teachings of Tae Kwo Ndo - courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self control, indomptable spirit.The kids learn self control, discipline and respect. They also learn valuable life skills - stranger danger, counter acts to bullying, being an upstander, and how to get yourself out of dangerous situations. My son started as a little Ninja years ago and he is now a red belt, ever so close to his black belt goal. His sisters are now little Ninjas and he helps them practice at home.We truly feel at home at Chosun and recommend it to all.Come join the Chosun family!

M C: around the area, I am very pleased that I chose Chosun in Franklin for myself and my children. We started our Taekwondo training 2 years ago and have been very happy with the curriculum and training that have been provided, as well as the camaraderie formed with other students and instructors. Master P and the other instructors have always provided an atmosphere of great learning during every class and they make the class fun and engaging.

Karen LaPorte: My son has been going to Chosun BBA for 3 years and it has been a wonderful experience for him. Through the guidance and skilled teaching of the instructors, my son has not only learned the practice of TKD and increased his physical capabilities, but also has learned the importance of character and mental strength. We've enjoyed watching him progress through more advanced belt levels and accept new leadership opportunities, and he's had a lot of fun in the process! The skills, confidence and friendships he's gained along the way have made me so glad we joined the Chosun family!

Annice Ploeckelmann: Our daughter has been a member at Chosun Academy for a year now and she loves it. The teachers at Chosun have a great way of displaying discipline and values while still making class fun. They work hard at making sure each student is successful in their training. Our family couldn’t be happier.

Jason Albers: Chosun has been so great for our daughter. Taekwondo has taught her discipline, commitment and self confidence. We are so thankful for Chosun and so proud of our First Degree Blackbelt!

Kyle Knipple: Taekwondo at chosun has absolutely changed my sons life. He used to be timid around his peers and really lacked confidence in himself. He’s been doing this for 3 years now and is just about to get his black belt. He is so much more confident and assertive than he used toBe. I’d absolutely recommend this forAny child.

Bev Skowronski: My grandsons enjoy going to class. Not only do they learn the art of taekwondo, the core values that they learn at home are reinforced in class.My husband and I recently joined and have enjoyed our classes. Great training and exercise. Master Peterson is an excellent teacher and know each students abilities. He provides opportunities for his students to succeed.

Martial Arts America: what do users think?

Kristiana Konini: Great place. My daughter enjoys class a lot. Definitely recommend.

David Michael Colorez: I’ll be 73 years old this January 2024, but because of MAA, I’m in the best shape ever.

Gina Povolo: MAA virtual kickboxing is a great workout with great instruction. It works out every single muscle so our bodies continue to burn fat for hours after class so we can STAY ON TOP OF IT during this COVID-19 crisis and not lose everything we have worked so hard to obtain! Thank you MAA!

Jennifer Skibinski: I recently attended online kickboxing class via Zoom and it was great! Got a good workout in! My kids can't wait to join me in the next one! Great way to keep them active while we all stay at home! So happy you made this option available until we can all get back to class!

Donald Hoeft: I consider myself to be in pretty good shape. In addition to being a martial artist I also compete in running races and triathlons. When Hanshi mentioned doing classes online I knew I would get good technique lessons but thought that fitness-wise it would be very easy. I was wrong! The classes have been physically demanding from both a cardiovascular and strength perspective. I've taken three days of classes this week and am actually pretty sore from them. This is proving to be a great way to stay fit.

Suzanne Grzanna: I love attending their kickboxing classes. Amazing instructors and great staff. Hanshi is the best!!

Dan D: Love coming to this place. The instructors are great and they have a passion for what they do. I've been doing the kickboxing program for about 2 years now and have seen my flexibility and strength increase significantly. The kickboxing room is awesome and has plenty of room to achieve a great workout.

Alexis Catalano: Fantastic place, great workout, nice staff. My mother and I have been taking kickboxing classes here for a few years and I highly recommend it. It's a blast!

Nikki Heat: I have a lot of memories with this place since 2007 to 2010 when i was a kid now that im a mother i want to share that experience with my son plus i know if i show up there again they will tell me how much i'v grown up. And im thanking of signing my self up again i just my need more practice again😄😄😄😄

Jodie Lane: , but I love how they motivate me and hold me accountable. When you leave a kickboxing class, the instructor asks you when you will be back. Of course, stuff happens, you text them to let them know you can’t make it, but you always want to make it…you made that commitment. It keeps you going.Kickboxing class lasts an hour. You sweat, stretch and pound the hell out of the bag. With the new IMPACT system in place, your workout intensity is measured. You get to track your own personal progress. Sometimes I am amazed at what I’ve done, and sometimes I know that I’m not at my best.I would highly recommend giving MAA Kickboxing a try. Best decision I’ve made.

Nehaya Abuain: I can't give enough stars. Everyone at Martial arts is outstanding, friendly, helpful, positive, and encouraging. My kids and I love the classes and instruction, and that's a testament to the hard work and dedication of the instructors and staff who love what they do and care. It's rare to find a place that encourages excellence in a non-competitive environment .Everyone cheers on everyone else, celebrates each other's achievements, and helps each other out. It's all positive, focused on self-discipline, focus, and of course learning martial arts. We love Marital arts!!!

Fawn Schwandt: LOVE this place. I can't seem to stay away!!! Such a welcoming and knowledgeable group of instructors. There's no judging and they're always happy to help. You can go at your own pace and will definitely see results. I would highly recommend this place to not only adults who want to get into great shape fast, but also to parents who want to boost their children's confidence. This place ROCKS!

Gina M: Best DOJO around. Master Serrano does a great job with his kick boxing classes. My husband and I not only got into great shape but also learned great techniques when it came to self defense, We have tried other programs and this one by far is the best...!!!!

Samer Sultan: Martial Arts America is a great dojo for students of all ages and abilities. My daughter started there in the Spring of 2015, she has had a great time learning Karate. The teachers at MAA are really supportive and understanding of kids, and they do their best to help the kids get the most out of the program.I would highly recommend giving it a try.

Elham Kiblawi: is the best place to be in so far, you get the attention that any student is looking for, it is not just a place to visit and leave, it becomes a part of your life style faster than you think, the Kickboxing program that they have is amazing, can't thank the instructors enough for their daily motivation and encouragement, it has been a great experience that I gained since i started with the program that is physically and mentally challenging and it is a great release from the daily pressures.I do take Karate classes there too, and it is great because it helped me improve my flexibility, concentration, focus it is more than Karate; leadership, respect, discipline, confident, self defense and other skills with the attention you get from the instructors specially Hanshi Roberto Serrano

Kari Opichka: I have taught aerobics for years, ran 1/2 marathons, and competed in triathlons and haven't found a better workout until now. The martial arts classes really challenge my body and soul.

Aaron Stelzer: The team at precision has really helped me with my overall health. I would recommend them to anyone looking to improve their health and life.

I would recommend this organization for all your fitness and self defense needs. Chris the owner is present and involved. Thank you for creating an inspiring place!

Suzanne Amos: Love these guys! Awesome Krav instructors! Really helpful fitness trainers! Fun members.

Steven Emmer: Positive:ValueThis is a fun and very friendly gym to attend, I've been going for around 6 months now and am seeing great results and learning how to properly defend myself in many different scenarios, the trainers love to see any and all people achieve their goals and beyond.

Chenxuan Li: Positive:ProfessionalismGreat place to train at. Instructors are welcoming to individuals of all levels. I truly enjoyed my time here at the gym!

Steve White: Positive:Professionalism,QualityAbsolutely love going every week, the most practical martial out there, I highly recommend this class!

tami johns: Positive:ValueI love this place and I would definitely recommend it because it teaches you what you actually need to know in life, and everyone there is super friendly. I enjoy it and look forward to it every night. It is definitely worth it.~ M: 13 years old

Ronny Driscoll: It is an extremely friendly and encouraging environment to be in. The instructors are open to any questions and are focused on your success and will cheer on any improvement that you make no matter how small. I have been attending this gym for a few months now and I noticed that it is not a gym that will place more importance on one person over another. The focus is on each individual to be able to get home safe and if they are interested, to improve their health. I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience there and continue to do so I personally think that if you push yourself as hard as you can it is all the more rewarding. God bless to those of you seeking to better yourselves.

Nathan Aarhus: Positive:ValueGreat place to release energy and pent up agression. All the instructors are great!

Andrew Povolo: A great place to train and learn how to protect yourself in real world situations.

Gayle La Roy: Great workout! Life saving skills.

Lexi Goldin: Positive:Professionalism,Quality

abhijai singh: My 7 year old is always excited to come to her lesson. She gets to learn small little pearls of wisdom about family and community and I really appreciate it. Small appreciations of kids performing at their best is always something to look forward to. The sensei encourages politeness in introducing themselves. The staff and the teachers carry themselves with pride and politeness.Our relocation from out of state and transition to this Brookfield Karate America has been seamless. Thank you Karate America

Aditya Thuse: Great workout sessions for kids as well as adults.

Shane Cohen: Best Karate Academy in southeast Wisconsin

J.K. Lee's Black Belt Academy - Sussex/Lake Country: what do users think?

Ben Anderson: I used to go here until I moved to Nebraska. Was a red belt. Was one of the best experiences of my life

Val Ulicki: As JK Lee always is, the Page Country location is as clean, friendly, and welcoming as anyone could want. The staff is knowledgeable and is willing to assist in learning this awesome martial art.

James Henkel (Jim): I have attended a lot of taekwondo schools, and run a number of them. When my children needed to have a structured martial arts school with other people, I was very careful with choosing JK Lee's. They have a very friendly and family-friendly environment, with great and enthusiastic instructors. They have multiple locations, but lake country in Sussex is the choice for my kids. They are taught confidence, leadership, physical control, and how to diffuse situations without using violence. They are also taught a lot of boxing, stick fighting, controlled sparring, and self-defense moves along with the normal kicking combinations for taekwondo. It is an excellent mix of multiple martial arts to supplement taekwondo taught at the school. It has many classes and options for classes during the week, you're not forced to go to just one, there are many different times and days available, which is great for a parent's hectic schedule. It also is a family, the taekwondo family that is at all of the locations is tighter and more encouraging than many churches I've been to. This is a great school, a great place for all belt levels and skill levels to learn instead of being used as a punching bag, and this is a great bang for your buck, you learn so much in so many disciplines that you definitely feel like you're getting a deal for your membership.

Sam Ecoff: I have trained with my two sons for over ten years at JK Lee Lake Country. Mr. Jin Lee and his wonderful family have created an atmosphere in which classmates have become like a second family, and my boys have grown into confident, caring, responsible adults and have made lifelong friends. I can't imagine a better place to undertake a martial arts journey.

Joyce Miller: I take TaeKwonDo with my family and it has been an incredible experience! It does not matter the age you begin, you just need to begin. The staff sets the atmosphere as very welcoming and not intimidating. If you are not sure, you can sign up for a “trial run” and then decide. It is not just about self defense, it encompasses strengthening, agility and definitely helps the memory!

Boots Miller: My family an I have been attending J K Lee Lake Country for almost 5 years now. It has been a wonderful experience that I would recommend to anyone, child or adult!The atmosphere is warm, encouraging, and best of all fun. Yet, at the same time, the instructors expect and encourage you to do your best and grow, no matter where you start. You will reach potential you didn’t know you had!The training addresses improvement in the areas of general health, strength, speed, flexibility, and of course, self defense.Each instructor and student is motivated to see you succeed!

Jaimie Schultz: Our boys absolutely love being a part of the JK Lee Lake Country Family. Each class gives them dedicated time with the instructor, and builds community with others. Their confidence continues to grow and the support of JK Lee in the process has been amazing!

Danielle Snyder: Positive:Communication,Professionalism

Joel Trowbridge: 100% Recommend. The Lee family does an outstanding job of welcoming you into the world of Taekwondo and making it as much fun for the students as it is educational and formative.

Dharsha Aavan: My younger brother and I currently go to Tae Kwon Do. I personally think that Tae Kwon Do has been fundamental in my growth as a person. I started Tae Kwon Do as a very shy and timid six year old, and now I'm more confident. Tae Kwon Do builds character and values, it has taught me discipline, reverence, confidence, and courage. Not only does Tae Kwon Do teach discipline, but it teaches a student how to defuse a potentially harmful situation. Furthermore, the instructors and community is very nice and supportive . I recommend Tae kwon Do for any adult and for any child.

Dan Ross: I'm very pleased with the experience my two children are having. I've never had a martial arts background but after seeing how JK Lee handles and teaches my kids about respect and discipline I'm glad we made the push to consider them for my children. All the instructors appear to be happy to there. I also am impressed with how well and how quickly the instructors took to memorizing each students names. Even with occasional larger class sizes I've never felt any kids let alone my own have a lack of individual attention from the instructors.

Scott Heins: My children have thoroughly enjoyed their experiences with JK Lee. Their growth, respect, and confidence have grown each week!Highly recommend.

Girtons ATA Taekwondo: what do users think?

Paul Muhammad: The Girtons ATA Taekwondo has such a beautiful energy and has been a gift of empowerment that keeps giving to my child and the community; so much so that my wife and I have enrolled.

Amanda Brunk-Grady: We recently joined Girtons ATA and are so thrilled we did. Our 5 year old can be hesitant to try new things, but Mr. and Mrs. Girton have been so welcoming to all of us that he very quickly became comfortable. He loves going to classes. The environment is supportive and fun, while teaching valuable skills and lessons.

Katie Czerwinski: My son started Taekwondo classes on June 1st of this year and we fell in love that day.From the first encounters through email and text, to our first trip to the studio we felt like family. The core values they teach are wonderful and beautiful for children.I could write an essay about every little detail but Google only always so many words - so I will just say if you want to enrich yours and your child's life, enroll them in Girtons TODAY.We hope to meet you soon and welcome you to the Girtons ATA strong family!!

Tori Brooks: I love this place they are really good with my child with special needs. He is also learning self control and focus....

Boss Lady: My children really enjoy classes and all the awesome skills they have learned so far from the teachers here at Girton Bayside Taekwondo

Amanda Hoffman: Girtons ATA Taekwondo has been an amazing experience for our son. Nothing but kindness and thoughtful teaching of amazing life skills. The respect that is shown for all students is beyond compare.

Mary Muhammad: Girtons ATA is the most family friendly facility for martial arts. Our little one started over a year ago and ultimately we all joined. Great place for cultivating discipline, building community, and building life long skills.

Jason Weiss: This ATA was exceptional. The discipline and respect learned through form and function. Kidd up to adults at all different levels. The promotion ceremony is professional and also traditional at the same time. I recommend anyone who is looking for self defense or even a workout to join their programs. The Girtons are wonderful people and instructors.

Dana McLaren: Great school. They work hard to include everyone and want everyone to succeed.

Megan Wilson: The girtons are amazing so good with the kids and so knowledgeable 100% recommend them for taeKwondo instruction!

Andrea Peterson: Our entire family loves going to practice. My husband and I love seeing our sons strive and be more respectful to others.

Emily Walter: in between forms/practice.

Keenan Sumlin: Fun, engaging and accommodating. I recommend for all ages.

Devin McKinnon: Update!!! My son started in late June 2022. I am proud to say I would still give Girton's ATA Taekwondo a 5 star review. I am so glad we started and made taekwondo a lifestyle! I have also started taking classes. We both enjoy learning from them. They run the class at a great pace and are so welcoming to new families. My child loves to see that he is progressing with different markings on his belt. The Girtons really understand how to work with kids and families. They help teach kids confidence, discipline, and values that we would want all kids to know. It is like I joined a parenting team when we joined Girtons ATA Taekwondo. As a mom that has way too much going on they totally get it. For example we showed up late one day, no big deal, they let him join class and still have fun. He even still had the opportunity to earn a star. They set up and enforce realistic expectations for they young children.

Kari Granada: Words can't express how we feel about finding Girtons ATA Taekwondo! We started our oldest daughter here and the love she has for it continues to grow daily and she never stops talking about it. Shortly after, we signed up our youngest and we can't wait to join class with them as parents! We are blown away by not only the teaching of Taekwondo, but the day to day life skills in class. Mr and Mrs Girton know exactly how to communicate with each and every person in class. They make everyone feel so welcome and part of the family. We didn't know we would form so many friendships and be so welcomed by every family when we joined. The atmosphere is amazing amongst both kids and parents.Not only does everyone cheer each other on, we all celebrate each other!

Diamond Wade: My son’s love this places.

Tony Czarnecki: Went for a Taekwondo tournament. The place is on the small side, but a nice training facility

Amber Kirby: My daughter has wanted to do Martial arts for years but because of a bad experience I was hesitant to sign her up anywhere else. Then the Girtons signed up with our Rec. Department. I am so glad they did. They are very professional but they are also personal. They get to know their students and their family. They also care about their community. You also don't have to sign a contract like other places. One of the other things like about them. Kids always change their minds and it is a load off my shoulders knowing that I am not stuck in a contract.

Crossover Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy: what do users think?

Jamie Re-Watson: Crossover BJJ is like a family! Over a decade ago, my kids started attending youth classes here. Professor Bob and the coaching team are absolutely fantastic with the kids. They not only focus on technique and skill but also instill important values. They educate the children on when, why, and how to use jiu-jitsu, all while keeping the sessions enjoyable. Now, after a decade, both of my boys proudly continue their journey as blue belts.The adult classes boast a wonderful community of people. Having been part of Crossover for more than 10 years, we've seen many faces come and go, but a dedicated core group remains committed to honing their skills and sharing their knowledge.For beginners, this gym is an excellent choice. The fundamentals class covers essential basics, perfect for those uncertain about grappling or "rolling" with others. From youngsters to those young at heart, Crossover caters to all ages. And let's not forget Yoga on Monday nights with Inga—it's not your typical yoga class; it's way better!

Nick Saidai: My son has been going there and loves it. Coaches are great.

ADAM MUELLER: I've been to this gym for some specialized training to help me be a better police officer. The owner has expert-level knowledge and is willing to share that knowledge to make better cops. I have also attended other training events where Bob has used his knowledge in BJJ to show how it crosses over to solid concepts that help cops control resistive people from levels of simple resistance to life threatening resistance. Thanks Bob!

Perry Wirth: Bob and Ryan are awesome coaches with a high level of BJJ skill as well as awesome instructors that will help you learn fast! If you are in the Wauwatosa or Brookfield area, definitely check out training with them at Crossover.

Joe Krukar: Top tier academy! Friendly people, fantastic instructors, and a clean, well-maintained facility. Stop in for some rolls and you won't be disappointed.

Willie Gant: Great instructors, great place to train! No egos there! Professional classes and training.

Robert Ellis: Great coaching!

cesar de la cruz: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,Valuefriendly environment, awesome coaches,

Caine k: Crossover has incredibly knowledgeable coaches. They take the time to make sure you fully understand each technique they demonstrate.

Jesse Moffet: Great instruction, great people and a great place to go if you want to give jiu jitsu a shot!

TWan: Lessoned here at least a year... Modest-sized studio that is unbelievably clean & well maintained. Great work-outs result in plenty of sweating, so thoroughly cleaned at least once daily. Serious & honest about the practice of jiujitsu. Very welcoming to families, range in young kids to older adults of all sizes. Nice variety of classes separated for kids & adults, beginner to advanced. No extraneous charges or pushing Tshirts/chachkies. Awesome & encouraging instructors who really know their stuff.

Jon Saporito: Started Crossover a year ago with my first child. Second child started a few months ago, it's amazing what a few months can do and with that said one year you're a new person. This academy is like a second home. The instructors are excellent and they have formats for kids, adults and self defense.
