Martial Arts Schools near Middleton

“Great introduction to karate! I was so impressed by how welcoming and informative the studio was. Rachel was awesome - so kind and knowledgeable.“

“Our son started in mid December and today he proudly earned his yellow belt. His New Year’s resolution was to earn a belt that wasn’t white and he practiced every single day to make it happen. The instructors are not just teaching technique. They are building confidence, discipline and resilience. They are patient. They are kind. They truly want every child to succeed. You can feel it in the way they speak to the kids, in the way they celebrate effort and in the way they gently push them to be better than they were yesterday.

This is such an incredible place for kids to grow, build confidence and develop new skills. We are so grateful to be part of this community and highly recommend it to any family looking for a positive and inspiring environment.“

“I signed my 8-year-old kid up to the program after doing a free trial. The instructor and the owner were super chill about extending the trial for as long as I wanted. It was a zero pressure environment. Their website is straightforward and distilled the vibe here; one of making sure everyone is met where they are at. I don't know how they do it, but somehow they can simultaneously be teaching my kid how to defend himself and break somebody's arm while the mood and the verbiage is really inclusive and peaceful. I didn't take any photos inside because there were kids there. But it's pretty easy to find and the mats, bathrooms, and changing rooms are all very clean.“

“This is a High Quality Martial Arts Center. The Instructors are consistently excellent and pay extra attention to beginning students in the classes. There are lessons in many different martial arts, and these are offered almost every day of the week and beginners can drop in to most lessons any time-- you do not need to wait for a particular class session to start. Just pick the style you want to learn and come and start any time you want. The advanced students are also very generous and kind and offer tips and support to beginners. I am an older, non-traditional student, and feel very welcome here. The environment is just excellent in all respects.“

“I started learning at Soyokaze Dojo a few months ago, and my journey has been great so far. As someone who was born and raised in Japan, I had never experienced anything this respectful and authentic here in the States. It didn’t take me a second to feel comfortable enough to embrace learning with an open heart, thanks to Brandt Sensei, Senpai, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere. I can’t recommend Soyokaze Dojo enough. It’s a place where you can strengthen both your mind and body in a truly respectful and supportive environment.“

“My friend and I had a great experience here! It was very interesting and helpful to learn more about Empowerment Self Defense (ESD). We felt comfortable throughout the class and it was fun too! We would definitely recommend and go back.“

“This is an amazing dojo! Zoe is a fantastic instructor and person that does a great job breaking down the kata and explaining the purpose of each movement. I was so lucky to find them, which they make very easy with an excellent website, while I was in town for a business conference. Everyone is so kind and accommodating. They helped me knock off a bunch of rust from 10 years of not training due to life and locale changes. I also got to train with Ben who is also great instructor. They have different instructing styles, which was instrumental in helping me remember far more than I thought I would after so long. Training with them makes me want to move to Madison!“

“My granddaughter went there 4 her martial art class and she really enjoyed going there and she like it. I'm so glad that I went there 2 see her.“
