Master Instructor Sasaki is by far one of the most experienced senior karate instructors in Japan and is the chief instructor of the Japan Karate-do Maruyoshikai Organization (JKMO).

Once a year, Sasaki Shihan visits the United States, for the official JKMO-USA training Camp (Gashukku) in the Los Angeles area, during which time he graciously visits both the Academy of Karate in West Hills and in Fontana.

The pleasure of training with Sasaki Shihan is multi-dimensional. Along with his calm and comforting demeanor, he offers a wealth of knowledge that is unmatched in depth and breadth.

His style of asking instead of demanding for perfection, allows the student to progress at his/her own pace, while striving at the full personal potential. Sasaki Shihan allows the absorption of knowledge through repetition, which is always followed with key explanations that are lost to others.
