August 30 · Adam EllenwoodMy 6 yr old daughter loves her Taekwondo class. First sport she has been really excited about. The staff is great with the kids and very encouraging. lots of instructors helping each class so they receive a lot of one on one time. Facility is kept very clean as well.
April 24 · Hali MooreI've been to two BJJ classes and two MMA classes so far, and I’m seriously impressed. The environment is super friendly and welcoming—everyone, from the coaches to the other students, goes out of their way to make newcomers feel comfortable. Hector, the owner, is fantastic—knowledgeable, approachable, and clearly passionate about what he does. Whether you're new to martial arts or looking to get back into it, I highly recommend Lightning Kicks.
June 25 · Liam WardUpdate!I have now been going to this school for almost nine years, and I love it more every class I go to. Come on in and join us. We take pride in walking each new or existing member through their own journey and making sure you are meeting your goals and feeling welcome. Come on in!I have been going to this academy for about three years now. I have not encountered a school that is more friendly, encouraging, and full of experienced coaches, instructors and mentors. I highly recommend Lightning Kicks to ask of my friends and family. Great workouts, great instruction, great people, and you learn some skills that may save your life. Come on in and check us out! The first class is always free!
January 03 · Cody LittleWe are so impressed with Lighting Kicks. We signed up for the first free class to try it out and were welcomed warmly by staff. Our 5 year old has always felt insecure to participate in any organized sport, so we were shocked when he needed no encouragement and eagerly joined the class! It’s so wonderful to see his development over the past month.
