What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Bethany Joy
"Outstanding coaching and leadership for discipline and personal growth. KALA Coaches are masters at teaching BJJ and Judo. Our lives have improved greatly from being members of KALA / Carlson Gracie Cedar City."
Jenn Collier
"We had been to quite a few places for our son to try jujitsu. He just wasn’t seeming to be excited about learning until we found K.A.L.A. Coach Angie is amazing with the kids and I’m happy to say the best around. She is really patient and kind, but stern when needed. She provides so much structure and fun for the kids. The atmosphere is amazing for parents, kids and even training adults. I’d recommend K.A.L.A to everyone."
Dawn Baker
"My daughter has had such a great experience here. The kids’ classes have great instruction. She loves the blend of drills, rolling, and fun games. There is a real community feel here."
Michelle Kyllo
"I was visiting from Oregon and was looking for a gym to train at on my vacation. I was so happy and grateful Coach Angie and Coach Mambo opened their doors to me and welcomed me to train in multiple classes. They are both highly decorated competitors and provide top notch instruction! Adults, teen and kids classes are fantastic with an emphasis on self defense and competition. Can’t wait to come back and train again soon!"
