The classes they run
“The kids stay active, are encouraged to try new things, and are reminded every day about how AWESOME they are -- it's great for helping bring a shy kid out of his shell.”

What members say
“Master Bergquist is an amazing instructor and works incredibly well with all of the kids.”
“We home school our children, (even pre pandemic) so getting our son to socialize and learn to focus on instruction from Sense Kevin was a big win for our family.”

From the reviews
Sensei Kevin always lights up every room he enters. His light hearted approach yet confident and compassionate teaching style warms anyone up to the challenges they set out to conquer. He creates an atmosphere in his Dojo where children and adults alike want to give their best effort every single day.
I love the energy and the opportunity to take various classes until I find the one or more that I want to master. Sensei (Kevin) is a great teacher! I got one of the best workouts ever in his kickboxing class.
Excellent place to see your child grow. Master Bergquist has taught my son Mason since he was 4 years old, (now 10). His skills as an instructor, mentor, and friend are second to none. The skills and humility of his students are a great gift to society.
My son has been going to Dojo for two weeks now. We love it! Before the first week was even over, he was saying yes sir, yes ma'am, and excuse me! He is wanting to attend even on days he is able to stay home because one of us is off of work. I would highly recommend this for every child!
Your first BJJ class at Kaizen Dojo Martial Arts
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
