HEAR FROM OUR SATISFIED MEMBERS!
Our 5 year old daughter just started taking lessons here and absolutely loves coming to class. As a mom, it’s great to see her feeling more physically confident and empowered, and the classes are an excellent balance of learning discipline, focus, and self-control, as well as learning how to control an aggressive situation. The skills are taught in fun, safe, and respectful partner and whole class games.
Honestly so happy we have had Utopia in our lives. The coaches have made such an amazing impact on our family. They encourage not only our child but the whole family to continue to do better. Our daughter has been able to build confidence in herself and her abilities. The coaches truly help each kid in their individual growths and developments and motivate them to pursue their next desires.
Our family recently moved from Texas and my son left as a 2nd degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. Wanting to try something new and challenging, we signed him up for BJJ. We have been coming to this facility for a little over a month now, and I can honestly say we are happy with our decision. This facility welcomed us with open arms and our BJJ instructor, Coach Vern, has really went above and beyond to make my son feel like a part of the BJJ family.
My 5 year old has had an absolute BLAST joining Utopia. Coach Vern & Coach Drew are truly great with the kids, and are a good team. They instill discipline and have high expectations for the children- but they do it with fun, kindness, and are very approachable. Coach Drew always has a big smile and sets a great tone for class. Coach Vern empowers the kids to achieve greatness. We are very pleased.
What can I say? This place is absolutely a blessing! When my son and I walked out of his first class, I was in tears, so thankful for a place like this. I knew this was the right fit for our son! In the short time he has been there, I have been so impressed with their intentionality, their amazing communication, and how they care deeply about the character building of each of these kids.
Just finished up my 3rd week of BJJ classes coming in with zero experience. I really like how the curriculum gives you a lot of repetition in what we’re working on each week, not just throwing a ton at you hoping something will stick. I also like how you get various instructors depending on the day/time of the class, each instructor has their own things they point out on the techniques you’re learning.
My son is part of the amazing kids’ Jiu-Jitsu class at Utopia! The instructors were super engaging, teaching the little ones not just techniques, but also discipline, respect, and teamwork. It’s so much fun watching the kids grow in confidence and skill each week! Highly recommend for any child looking to build strength, focus, and make new friends.
All 5 stars come from the community this gym has created. If you are new or looking for somewhere new to practice jiu jitsu, I have never felt more welcome. I used to manage a gym of my own and Ive got to say, the process of joining Utopia was the smoothest and most seamless transition of which Ive been a part. The owner meets with all newcomers, and every instructor brings something different to the table so you are always challenged.
Great place to get a unique workout. Offers a jiu jitsu, judo, kickboxing, and fitness courses. they offer free trials so if you’re looking for something new do not hesitate to come give these classes a try.
My 5 year old son joined Utopia last week. He has really embraced everything. We have been so impressed with the staff and their weekly lesson plan. We are most impresssed with how it carried over to our home. He know wants to make his bed, and is more in tune with daily discipline. Thank you!
This is my 5-year old daughter’s first experience in jujitsu and she is loving it thanks to her amazing instructors! You can tell that each child’s individual needs are recognized and you really feel part of something special at Utopia!
Utopia has an extensive kids program in addition to their adult program which enables both me and son to go at the same time. They also support law enforcement with a great intro rate of $0 for beginners. Can’t beat that.
I have really enjoyed my time here so far. My son and I both joined about 1 month ago and everyone has been very welcoming. They are great with the kids and I appreciate how they emphasize life skills as much as martial arts technique. For myself, it’s been a great workout and fun to learn technique as well. The instructors and other more experienced members have been amazing at taking the time to work with me and walk through the concepts as it’s certainly challenging but fun.
Utopia welcomed me as a newbie and I feel right at home. They have a strong adult program & the ladies group really encourages community. I appreciate the postive culture & values at Utopia and am excited to develop my skills here. They do a good job with onboarding and checking into make sure you are supported on your journey. I like the foundations class, so I can build my confidence as a newbie.
My daughter just started 2 months ago but she looks forward to going every week. I really appreciate the work the coaches do in relating the content from class to situations outside of class (compassion, discipline, etc) and the ways the kids can demonstrate these skills at an age appropriate level.
Perry Wirth’s martial arts program at Utopia in Grafton Wisconsin is a state of the art master piece. Best in the nation and State of Wisconsin. Their leadership training for kids is unmatchable. The lessons our kids learn from the coaches at Utopia will stay with them their entire lives. Highly recommended.
I have never done martial arts before do needless to say i had no idea what to expect. Over the past few weeks, every coach I have worked with and ever parton of the club has been nothing g but kind and understanding. I have never felt rushed or or out of place in any of the classes I have gone to. I would highly recommend this club to anyone from a complete beginner to even the seasoned MMA enthusiast.
As an adult returning to Martial Arts, Utopia Martial Arts has exceeded expectations. Class sizes are good allowing a breath of partners and instructors are knowledgeable and energetic about the material. Would recommend Utopia to anyone wanting to try martial arts for the first time or to return to training.
Such a lovely, charismatic, and enriching environment where kids can learn to truly be themselves and guide their little bodies into true leaders. My daughter has only been there for going to be a whole month already and she’s truly evolving into the little leader she’s destined to be! Truly grateful to have come across a place like this! Not only for the self defense, but for the courage to tackle all challenges of every day life! 1,000/10 recommend!
My son was received in a warmly way by the team. They totally understand my child developing and are very helpful and nice with him. My kid has fun time while he learns better skills to be more disciplined. Thank you guys for the hard work!
Have been to several sessions now and always a great experience. Instructors are very good at walking you through the drills and being supportive. Other members have been supportive also despite being new and lacking any background in grappling. The positive culture is something they firmly believe in.
My son started in the Spider Monkey’s program and is now in the Chimpanzees class. He thoroughly enjoys each and every class. Coach Vern and Drew are fantastic instructors and role models. I highly recommend Utopia!
Our son bad just started at utopia recently, but we have already noticed improvements in his behavior. He is so passionate about having his own fun thing to do do and wants to do his best. The coaches and atmosphere are all awesome!
We have loved watching our son in the Micro Monkeys class. He loves all the coaches and is learning a lot about independence and confidence. I would highly recommend Utopia to any parents looking for ways to get kids engaged in active, healthy, fun activities.
Utopia was recommended to us by a friend. The introduction and trial process was a great opportunity to get a feel for the program and we signed up after the trial. The program is structured and fun for kids, they feel like they are playing games while gaining confidence in skills. My son is eager to practice his skills at home. The coaches are patient and offer great guidance during classes.
Utopia has been really good for my 5 year old son. We have only been going for about a month now and have already seen changes at school and home. Would definitely recommend for any child boy or girl.
My daughter has loved her experience at Utopia. We really appreciate the level of dedication from all the coaches. The team is very professional and hands on throughout class. We are all excited to watch my daughter continue to grow her skill and confidence via their programs.
I’m so glad we found Utopia and that they offer classes starting at 3-4 years old. We love their focus on not only teaching physical skills, but also social and emotional skills for development. My son is 3 and has already learned so much. He looks forward to going to class each week and showing us what he learns. Thank you!
My son has had a few sessions at Utopia so far but he really seems to be enjoying it. It has been a nice addition to our routine. I was very impressed with the initial walk-in that we had to get some more information, which led to us signing up for the trial class. After his first class, we signed up for a monthly membership. The communication with everyone has been excellent. The facility is clean and has a nice area for family members to sit and watch.
The decision on where to send our girls for martial arts was not easy or taken lightly. From what specific form to the ever more important “where” which is another way of saying “who will be responsible for the development of our children”. We are parents who want our children to earn everything, and Utopia is in alignment with that. They also develop the children mentally in addition to physically.
It isn’t easy for us to find activities or sports that will keep my 8 year old son with adhd engaged, but the staff and coaches at Utopia have been great with him since we started. It’s nice to find a place for Gunnar where he always feels welcomed, and also manages to stay pretty focused. It makes me smile when Coach Vern asks him what the best part of his day was and his response is jiu-jitsu 🙂
Absolutely love the coaches and the staff as they go above and beyond to check on how your kid is doing in class and offer other opportunities. My son loves going and has been learning new moves and well as working on goals at home and in school.
We started our 2 kids at Utopia just over 1 month ago. It has been nothing short of amazing! In such a short time they have learned so much! They enjoy being part of a team and are so excited each day when it is time to go! They have not only learned ju jitsu skills, they have made new friends. The social skills taught each class are incredible; patience, respect, focus, listening to name just a few!
Utopia offers classes for children unlike anywhere else. The coaches make genuine connections with each child while instilling a strong sense of discipline. Each class is structured appropriately to hold the child’s attention and keep them having fun with every new lesson.
I really think this is an amazing program. Kids get to be physical in a safe format and at the same time get great life lessons. Staff really seem to enjoy being around kids and helping them grow. Twice a week classes can be a big commitment so we’ve had to limit other activities, but my daughter really enjoys it.
My 3yr old son just started classes at Utopia and it’s the activity he looks forward to most all week. Class focuses on basic movements and coordination in the form of fun games. Kids are learning all the basic jiu-jitsu skills without even realizing. There is definitely discipline and concentration and I love that he’s learning it all in a safe and clean environment while having fun.
My boys started going to Utopia martial arts and absolutely love it. The staff is super welcoming, friendly and encouraging. The other kids in their classes are also super welcoming and helpful. It feels like an amazing community. They teach much more than Jiu jitsu, and I have already seen big changes in my kids’ independence and confidence.
I started my martial arts journey 30 years ago. Throughout that time, I’ve been blessed with having amazing coaches/instructors. At 43yrs old, I’m finding myself a participant in a different ball game with Jiu Jitsu. I went in, thinking that I would get destroyed. However, I was met with point by point, step by step, move by move, technique. I’ve been shown the fundamental physics of what your body can do, and what it’s capable of. The entire staff is incredibly welcoming, and knowledgeable.
I highly recommend checking out Utopia! The community is very welcoming. Their new BJJ fundamentals program is awesome! If you are a beginner or a seasoned martial artist, it’s a great way to connect, stay active, and learn new techniques.
Very accommodating for college students that can only train during break and summer. Friendly environment, knowledgeable instructors and a great community. BJJ, judo and kickboxing have all been top notch classes. Utopia also gives you the opportunity to attend and participate in MMA and pankration events.
Such a fun summer camp! Our girls love it every summer, and have met some great friends through the years! Love all the coaches and how much they truly care about my girls! Definitely recommend this summer camp to anyone who wants their kids to have fun and stay busy every day!
