Enjoy Milwaukee in Winter

Milwaukee is a city that cherishes its roots; you'll see revitalized architecture throughout downtown, and a parade of summer festivals celebrate the diverse cultures that made the city what it is today. But Milwaukee is also a city that's growing and changing. From major construction projects like a brand new arena and streetcar to the revival of streets and neighborhoods around the city, there's a new energy in the air.

Marcus Campbell 2022

"There were a lot of memorable moments for me. My favorite parts of camp are always those down moments: the conversations on the side of the mat, the exhausted “good shit, bro” in between rolls, the awkward moments between classes (or techniques) when everyone is equally lost, and the mumbled words strewn about while refueling. The standout moment was sitting down to share a potluck and seeing all the love being shared. Just a group of randoes sharing food. But not just food, companionship and kinship. Fantastic."

Full Camp: $270 ($220 before 12/1)
