At KiCK Martial Arts in Kansas City, we believe that Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and Taekwondo training will help every child and adult develop the mental and physical skills they need to succeed in life and impact others in a positive way. Martial Arts isn't just about self-defense like so many believe. At KiCK, it's about self-confidence, improved focus, physical strength, and positive social interaction.
We believe that members at KiCK have an innate ability to positively change others (and themselves in the process). We want to help your efforts in a unique way with martial arts. KiCK Martial Arts teaches our members to set goals, work hard and follow-through, all the while having fun and building community with one another.

At KiCK we have a heart for orphaned and abandoned children, that's why part of your tuition sends children in an orphanage in Leogane, Haiti to get an education. We live in a world that says that adults, not children, have the firepower to catalyze positive change. Children are to be cared for (or not) until they become adults, at which time they can make a positive impact on the world around them.
Did you know that KiCK stands for Kids Internationally Changing Kids? At KiCK Martial Arts of Kansas City, we believe that children catalyze change. Through your child's attendance at KiCK, they are making a tangible difference in the lives of children around them, and also in the lives of children in other parts of the world.
TJ and Tiffany's mission is to make sure their students understand that taking a class at KiCK isn't just about learning Taekwondo. Learning Taekwondo is an important and direct correlation between learning about who you are, the mindset of serving other people, and following the character counts program.

I've been taking my 5 year old Phoebe here for about 2 months now, and I am so excited for many, many more YEARS to come.
As a mother who has watched her 5 year old little girl struggle emotionally and mentally with being physically and verbally bullied at school, All I wanted to do was see her smile and provide her with an outlet to build confidence that was destroyed, built back up, learn some discipline and even some self defense so she can defend herself if needed. My spouse said "let's try karate. It worked wonders for me as a kid." So, we googled and found KICK and it was the best decision

Our 5yo son has been attending for a month. It is fun to watch the kids listening and following directions from the instructors. The instructors are awesome. They are very energetic and in tune to the kids level of ability. They break down all of the moves to the kids level so that can easily repeat and learn. Their are lots of games mixed in with instruction. Our son is building confidence, respect, and responsibility.

These instructors are amazing! So energetic and and kid-focused! It's heartwarming to watch them interact with the kids and work to teach them discipline and self respect as well as the skills they are so knowledgeable about. We've been to a few other places around town and nothing compares to the friendliness and compassion that these people show to the kids and parents each and every day!

Our daughter has been going here for about a month and really loves it. She had no intention of liking it as soon as we told her we were just going to go and "try a class". After that class trial, she still did not think she wanted to join but she was in a class with much younger kiddos. Tiffany suggested she try another class, more in her age range and she came home so excited! She has a new sense of pride and we cannot wait to see the developments along the way.

KiCK Martial Arts is a great organization with amazing people. My kid who has some type of ADD has been able to help him focus more and he's always looking forward to his classes. The instructors have been great with the students, making it fun while learning life skills as well. We also love it that KiCK gives back to community! Overall, it's more than a 5-star! Great team!
