On the Mat
All Levels
Our adult classes are structured, challenging, and supportive, with a focus on real progress whether your goal is self-defense, fitness, competition, or personal growth.
Professor Milton Regis is a 6th-degree black belt and three-time world champion, and he teaches most of the classes himself, rolling with students and giving hands-on guidance in the same system that built champions across Long Island.
Alongside Professor Melissa Regis, our team brings decades of experience to every session. What really sets Kioto apart is the atmosphere: respectful, focused, and family-friendly. We know every student by name and care about your progress on and off the mat.
