From the reviews

If you're thinking about karate for your kids, Amerikick is the place! They are so great with the kids. They go above and beyond to make sure the kids feel comfortable, prepared, and included. My son was very nervous to start out, and they were super accommodating and helped find ways to ease his anxiety.

I have been going to this Karate School for over 8 years!!! I currently live in Rockford and drive twice a week to continue coming to this karate school. There are plenty of karate schools I could go to in the area, but I know their quality can't be beat.

★★★★★ — Timothy, Jul 2012

Amerikick has done an amazing job with adjusting to COVID limitations. They have taken the time to ensure the students are safe by requiring masks, taking temperatures, taping out squares for each student to be in, and taking the time to sanitize between classes.

★★★★★ — Abby, Dec 2020

I would be a member for life here if I didn’t have to move for work. I cannot say enough good things about Amerikick! This is for the personal fitness/kickboxing classes although I know they also have karate as well. Joe & Shelly are absolutely amazing instructors, they are very patient & motivating.

Your first Karate class at Amerikick Wisconsin

Nervous about walking into a Karate dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and a good sensei expects beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, punches, and kicks — not hard sparring. Step to the side whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot. What to bring: water, and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi and the belt your dojo awards you. Kumite (sparring) eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Karate is a contact sport. Ease in, train within your limits, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
