We love the instructors and program at Kovars at Madison! Our son has learned skills and grown his confidence in his training here. The Kovars staff has evolved so well during the covid pandemic as well. Great team and program.

The staff and instructors here are super awesome! It’s never a dull day with Shihan and Renshi Caswell and the rest of the staff! You make the martial arts experience joyful, personable, and always exciting. Thank you for what you do!

I like training jiu jitsu at this location. James Anderson and Charles Jelks are really amazing/knowledgeable instructors. Both James and Charles and super cool. They love to help you learn jiu jitsu genuinely which is a rare feat to find in instructors. This is my favorite place to train to jiu jitsu. Will be coming to this location more often for jiu jitsu and there is honestly no other place I recommend more than here for training.

My son started here at Kovar’s a few months ago. He absolutely loves coming to class. Every instructor is professional and extremely good with the toddlers/preschool age kids in his class (who are significantly harder to coach well and maintain patience with compared to school aged children)
I taught competitive sports for well over 14 years at a high level. Worked with Olympian’s and the coaches who coached them. Take my word for it - the instructors here are excellent.
Caswell has been teaching since I was a child (in fact, he was my instructor)
The very few times I have had to defend myself in the real world, I won the fights in devastating fashion and my aggressors honestly had no idea what happened to them.
From correct striking to discipline and routine, kovars is worth every penny.

My daughter loves her classes. All the instructors are motivating and very friendly. They also teach the kids other life skills, like the importance of eating healthy, doing well in school, and doing their chores.
