One of the main reasons I went with Kovars was the schedule. I like that there are earlier times and post dinner times available. When you have kids who are involved in several extracurricular activities, I need as much flexibility as possible. The coaches are easy to talk to if you have concerns. The two coaches we had/have the most interactions with were Coach Shepard (miss him) and Coach Calvin (super welcoming and funny). My kids don't like it when I make them go more than 2x a week because they said it's too repetitive but I think that's good for them. I wish they had a better system of notifying them when you child does well. I wish it was part of the account or maybe even a Google form link would be helpful.

Wonderful staff and knowledgeable of every childs name and skill. A very well run establishment.

I've trained here for years with my family. We love Kovar's!

Best vibes. I have been going to this location for a few months now and I never knew how much I would love BJJ. Highly recommend.

My son and I are new to the studio but we both could not be happier with the people there. The instructor s teach all levels but they seem to be particularly good at teaching kids. If you are interested in your kid getting into martial arts, I highly recommend bringing them to Kovar's

My son absolutely loves his karate class! The instructors are patient, encouraging, and really know how to keep the kids engaged while teaching discipline and respect. I've seen such a boost in his confidence and focus since he started. Highly recommend!

Our son recently started at Kovar’s and he is loving it. He is excited for class every week and he loves all of his instructors. He has gained confidence and is staying active!

Kovar’s has been a very positive experience for my daughter who started the program a couple of months ago. I loved watching her, the students and teachers and learned so much just from observation that I decided to join the program myself! Looking forward to continued training! I would highly recommend this academy to anyone!

When I first heard about Kovars, I was skeptical about sending my children to a dojo that was a chain. Don’t be skeptical and miss out! Kovars has been amazing for my 2 kids. They teach collaboration, self reliance, life lessons, how to protect themselves all while having fun. Shihan Sipes and Ms Berling make the program work providing encouragement, positive energy, and an environment that cares not only for the kids but the families as well! Highly recommend!

Our kid is thriving here! We can’t praise Shihan (sensei) Jeramy Sipes enough. He’s a gifted educator - he makes learning fun and keeps firm control of the class promoting discipline. We love the belt progression pace and accountability to actually earn the promotion with testing of skills but also behavior at home and school. Our kid has become more physically confident, and emotionally disciplined in all aspects of their life since joining Kovars. It’s become another amazing community in Folsom. Big shout out to Ms Berling, our kids always say “she’s the nicest”
