Ms Sugino is THE absolute best. Paisley loves taking classes and hopefully with some schedule changes will be able to officially start regularly again soon. She has so much fun, and has also learned a lot about respect for herself and others. My Daisy troop had a field trip to KMA and Ms Sugino helped the girls earn multiple petals. My daughter was also able to have a virtual birthday party that included a lesson from Ms Sugino that the kids also loved. HIGHLY recommend Ms Sugino and her classes to help kids learn confidence, respect and to have fun!
Mrs. Sugino, the owner/ instructor goes above and beyond with each student. She teaches life skills, respect, self confidence, self defense, integrity, honesty, strength, balance, and more.
We have been coming to KMA for over a year now, and not even a Pandemic stopped us. Mrs Sugino quickly adapted & she taught virtual classes, so we did not miss a single class!
it is amazing to watch the development of her students as she teaches them!
What a great place to learn and grow. Ms. Sugino is a great instructor and has a love for Martial Arts you can feel the moment you enter the school. The classes are hard without being overwhelming.

Ms. Sugino is a fantastic instructor and really cares about your individual development. Her attention to detail and patience are phenomenal! Her school has a family atmosphere and a true feeling of camaraderie. Kyuki-Do started in 1968 and has a rich history. It’s taught thousands of students over the years. The longevity of this style speaks to the quality of the art and its instructors. Please give them a shot, you will not be disappointed..
I recently attended a session to watch my grandchildren and I was so impressed with Ms. Sugino's patience with the kids and her way of working with them to help them participate. I am absolutely thrilled that my grandchildren are part of her class. I look forward to attending future sessions to watch them grow. Very, very impressed.
Our son loved Ms. Sugino's classes. She has a way of making kids learn in a loving but firm manner. Highly recommend.
The “Quarantine 15” has been yet another horrible reality of the pandemic. Not only were we separated, friend loved ones and friends, but unstructured days, decreased motivation, and increased boredom led to unhealthy habits for families. The result, for many, has been weight gain and reduced fitness levels, which has set the stage for disease […]
Say Yes to Childhood Parenting can be tricky. We want our children to be resilient, empathetic, and able to self-regulate. However, with the busyness of life, the experiences that build these characteristics fall by the wayside, and “no” becomes an automatic response. Children are continually being told what to do and what not […]
Children’s challenging behaviors have long been the focus of adults’ pessimistic viewpoint of characteristics that don’t fit the mold of societal expectations. This rigid “deficit thinking” causes parents to complain about their child’s qualities and make them try to “fix” what is wrong or make excuses as to why they can’t do certain things. […]
As we navigate the world, we all use our senses to receive input from our surroundings, let our brains process, and then tell us how to react.

Over the last year, sports programs have had shortened seasons, if any at all. Because of that, training time for athletes of all ages has dropped significantly. Now, with sports returning to a more normal duration, young athletes are working hard to regain lost skills and recondition their bodies. The problem, however, is that lengthy […]
Parents everywhere want their children to achieve success. This is usually defined by fulfilling societal norms, whether in terms of grades, athletic abilities, or something else. And the push to accomplish these things first is putting pressure on children and parents as well. Comparisons are fueling the expectation for children to develop at […]
There’s no doubt that children’s social skills have become rusty over the past year and not progressed as they should have. With more limited interactions than usual, children have experienced adverse effects on their social development. And while many children have had the opportunity to engage in some school setting and/or activity, there were still […]
Over the past year, children have faced many disturbances in their daily lives and interactions. These things have contributed to a lot of emotional imbalance and brought on or exacerbated feelings of sadness, fear, and anxiety. Since children are still developing abilities to regulate their strong and ever-changing emotions, they need assistance in strengthening these […]
Rebuilding Intellectual Skills During the Summer Summer break is typically viewed as a time for relaxation, fun, and no schedules. However, considering the dramatic change in our lives over the past year and seeing communities begin opening back up in a full capacity now, this summer would be the perfect time to get children back […]
