We have been coming to the studio for seven months now and the staff is amazing. The kids have fun as well as learn their martial arts. Sensei Ted is so focused on making sure each student gets what he/she needs to succeed. That could be extra one on one time or maybe a little coaching from a fellow classmate. He is strict and fun all at the same… time. The kids love him. Sensei Kurt is amazing.
He spends so much time making sure the kids are doing their punches and kicks correctly and making sure their forms are correct. He also makes sure their is always time for some fun and games. Sensei

My son and myself have now been with USSD for 2 months and from day 1 we have been so welcomed by Sensei Ted, Sensei Nalu and his family, there lessons with the kids are great and for myself the workout in the adult lessons really pushes me and helps with my balance and my physical strength. Even with everything being closed they are offering online lessons for kids and adults which is very beneficial for us all thank you for all that you do for your students. You are so appreciated and cant wait for the next lesson.

I would HIGHLY recommend USSD. The instructors are amazing and great with the students. The school is owned by Sensai Ted who is also the head instructor. He is down to earth and Awesome with his students and students families, along with his wife they make the school a Family friendly environment for learning. Sensai Nalo, the other instructor, is also an amazing instructor. The Dojo has high level instruction that the kids will understand and can advance their skills at a rapid, yet smooth pace. A little less than a year ago I signed up my 8 year old son. The school has helped with teaching

Our 2 sons have been taking kempo at this studio for less than a year and we have already seen tremendous change in their skill, passion, and personal development.
Sensei's Ted and Nalu are awesome instructors and they get the fine balance between pushing a student and lofting him or her up. I love the way they speak to their students with the utmost respect. They make martial arts fun but are able to maintain a level of seriousness as well. That dojo has truly become our second home and we couldn't be more grateful.
