Coach Kevin and his AWESOME YOUTH SPORTS staff are amazing and full of high energy for the kiddos! This is the second school year that my son is enrolled in their after school program and he LOVES it. He doesn't attend every single day, but when he does he is so happy! The staff is always there, even on days like MLK Day when school isn't in session, so as a parent you have childcare so you can still go to work for the day. I would like to thank Coach Kevin and the rest of the coaching staff for all the amazing work you do with the kids. I highly recommend AYS to any parent! ?

Under Kevin Bergquist's guidance, this company goes beyond teaching martial arts; it instills life skills. The focus on resilience equips our youth with the strength to face their challenges, while the emphasis on self-expression allows them to grow as individuals. As a Vice Principal, I’ve seen the positive impact the company has had on the self-esteem of my students throughout the years. This company creates a nurturing environment that extends well beyond the dojo into the heart of our community. I wholeheartedly recommend this company for its unwavering dedication to shaping confident, empowered, and well-rounded individuals.

Signed my son up for classes and it was life changing for him. His confidence grew, his attitude was better. Sensei Kevin and his staff are amazing leaders, coaches and mentors. They offer flexible class schedules to help accommodate working parents. Convenient location in west Bradenton. I highly recommend checking this place out. You won’t regret it!

I have known Kevin since he was a kid and he has ALWAYS shown everyone the upmost respect and kindness. He mentors children and adults both in the life skills needed to survive and thrive in this world. Go forth, Kevin. You’re a good man!

Boujou Taught me karate and Coperiea when I was a child and today I still train because of it. The man who runs this gym is a good dude. He used to teach at a middle school named oasis years ago. Watching him become more and more successful over the years has always made me happy. This was the first time I ever had a opportunity to train and I swear it changed my life. Training with him will make your kids better people. They will be able to defend themselves but they will want to keep thier hands to themselves. He not just teaches the martial art its self but also the culture. With martial arts comes discipline as well. Every kid should have the opportunity to train.

Our son has been attending AYS for almost 3 years and we couldn't be happier. Great communication, affordable aftercare, and we love that his martial arts is included! You are always greeted with a smile and and a boastful good morning from Coach Kevin during drop offs ?
