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.
If you are thinking of getting yourself or children into Martial Arts, you will be doing it right at KMA of Bartlett.
Ms.Sugino is simply amazing. She makes each class fun and enjoyable.She connects with each student, she is very patient, caring and just loves what’s she does.

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.
