A little about us:

Matt Griffey – For over 20 years, I’ve been living and breathing martial arts and have earned a 5th-degree black belt. Martial arts isn't just about moves and techniques for us, though, it's about building confidence, focus, and discipline. Watching kids grow and shine through martial arts is one of the most rewarding things I do, and I can’t wait for your child to experience it too!

Gwendolyn Griffey – That’s me! I’ve got a background as a Certified Medical Assistant and spent years working as a School Health Assistant for the McFarland School District, so I know the importance of ensuring kids are healthy, safe, and well taken care of! This experience plays a big part in how we run our programs—creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where every child feels supported.

And just so you know, we’re parents too! We’ve got three kiddos of our own—14, 12, and 5—so we totally understand how important it is to find safe, fun activities where kids can thrive and develop new skills. That’s why we created Stoughton’s Best Afterschool & Summer Camp, plus our Parkour and Martial Arts programs. We want every child to discover their passion, build friendships, and have the time of their lives while learning new things.

What makes us different?

We offer so much more than your typical after school program! Your child can explore sports, arts, leadership training, and so much more. Whether they’re into Martial Arts, Parkour, other sports, or creative activities such as crafts or building, we’ve got something for every child. We’ve ensured all our programs are led by CPR-certified staff who are also trained in leadership and mentorship, providing every kid with the attention they deserve.

We know that safety and trust are top priorities for parents, and we take that very seriously. That’s why we ensure our coaches are background-checked, highly trained, and fully committed to making your child’s experience the best it can possibly be.

We can’t wait for you to be part of the Stoughton’s Best family. Our programs fill up FAST (seriously, every year we sell out!), so don’t wait! Reserve your child’s spot today for an unforgettable summer of fun, learning, and growth!

Got questions? We love chatting with parents! Call or text us anytime at (608) 205-3232. We’re here for you!

We look forward to welcoming you and your child to our community soon!

Big smiles,

Matt & Gwen Griffey
