I’ve been with THA a little over 4 months now doing the kickboxing program! Best decision I ever made to go to their trial class! Ever since then I’ve been hooked! Love the environment, the coaches and instructors are amazing and go above and beyond to help us achieve our goals! Highly recommend this place over and over again!

Instructors are very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I started fitness kickboxing 3 months ago and I usually come here twice a week. Every lesson is well designed and unique which gives me motivation to come every week! The facility is exceptionally clean as well! Highly recommended 🙂

My now 7 y/o daughter started with the Little Dragons program in 2018 and is still going strong! In the fall of 2019, I was curious about and decided to try the adult kickboxing classes: Best decision of my life! The most diverse workouts instructed by genuinely enthusiastic, knowledgable, caring and motivating individuals who go out of their way to make you feel like family. In a short time, you will feel great and notice a difference too! The best part is that I can do my thing while my daughter does hers in the same venue. Thank you to everyone at T.H.A. Martial Arts & Kickboxing for making the experience a great one for both of us!!

I joined the kick boxing fitness classes with my daughter just over a year ago on a trial basis, and I got hooked! I'm still attending classes at least 3 times a week. I feel more energetic, stronger and lost over 20 pounds!!Everyone is friendly, motivating and enthusiastic. Instructors are fun knowledgeable and always challenge you to do your best.

My six year old son started several months ago and we are both loving this program. He is anxious to go every week and learn new skills; I see it building his coordination and confidence. I LOVE the teachers here- they expect attention and focus and in return treat the children with such respect. My older kids have been through many activities through the years and we've never experienced a place where ALL the teachers are so great with the kids. I really appreciate the life lessons taught at the same time- they learn about confidence, respect, gratitude, etc in a way they can understand. I wholeheartedly recommend!

T.HA. Martial Arts provide an amazing learning environment for children. They intentionally foster a safe and confidence building atmosphere aimed at developing character as well as physical strength and skill. All the staff are energetic and passionate about teaching. They are thoughtful and personal in their interactions with the children. I really can’t say enough about the value of this facility and special group of people to our community. Try it out!

The best place to train and experience friendship under supervising of professional coaches.The ambiance is a home. They gonna mail you a handwritten postal card after joining which was so impressive for me that they didn't print a typical card and just put the address on an already printed sticker, they put effort and they write something by hand for me! That made a very good feeling for me!Keep going folks and it's my pleasure to be one of you!

I signed up for the 3-week trial and saying that so far I really enjoy the adult classes is an understatement. I think this academy is amazing. The place is clean. The facility has A/C and also it's nice that there are chairs to sit and watch/wait for the next class. I find it especially notable that instructors and students alike are personable. Everyone is positive, professional and supportive. It's a great environment to be in after a long day and just to keep up fitness as well as learn and practise something new in every class.The instructors have been very attentive, and will introduce you and help break the ice by having everyone welcome you to the classes. I think it's great and helps to build the culture! Classes have an excellent mix of variety and stays interesting for me while also helps with practising and doing drills. Each of the instructors are friendly! They remember names and are good at involving you in the classes. I mainly have been taught by Master Dayo who is entertaining and informative with his teaching and ties it in practically with 'street' fighting.I think the dojang has a good professional vibe while balancing approachability and personability. Five stars!

Friendliest muay thai gym I've been too. Every class is a workout, fun, and everyone is there to help out. Also one of the cleanest gyms I've been too, and has AC

Amazing academy that is beginner and family friendly! Went for a trial class and the instructors were very friendly and understanding of different skill levels. Would recommend to anyone looking for a muay thai/hapkido academy.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. I have been training at THA for about 7 years now. I started with the teen hapkido class and I absolutely loved it, all the trainers are amazing, it is such a warm and supportive environment. Now I do the Muay Thai classes and the fitness kickboxing classes. Both are an extremely good workout and a lot of fun. The trainers at THA create such an amazing environment, everyone encourages you to do your best and push yourself. I always leave class with a smile on my face, and proud of what I accomplished.

Signed up my son for the kickboxing classes and so thankful that I found this place! Coaches here are the nicest people I have ever met. They are patient, kind, knowledgeable and helpful. My son was very comfortable around the trainers all the time. He learned a lot and I noticed a significant improvement in his behavior, confidence and technique.

The Toronto Hapkido Academy has been a truly wonderful experience. As an adult engaging in martial arts for the first time, the environment has been ideal. All of the instructors have been motivating, knowledgeable, and supportive. The classes offer a great workout and a chance to feel a little bit badass. I look forward to continuing the journey!

I am a fitness trainer, after 9 years of teaching other people I was looking for a new personal challenge, I was very luck to find THA. I can’t say enough regardless of your fitness level you feel welcome, you feel stronger with each class. My upper body strength was increase so much, each class is different, dynamic, challenging and fun 🙂

Our 7yo and 4yo both attend T.H.A and we couldn't be happier with the decision to join 2 years ago. What appeals most to us about Hapkido is the value system that is instilled within each person there. Our children learn about personal responsibility, respect, discipline and honour. The environment is warm and friendly, and the instructors are really wonderful with the kids. We're proud to call this our Dojo and will continue to send our children here for many many years to come.

My family’s experience with Toronto Hapkido Academy has been nothing short of fantastic from my very first phone call to ask for information to my daughter’s most recent class. The organization, staff, and classes are top-notch. Everything you could hope for in a martial arts school!

My family has been a part of the Hapkido Academy community for 6 years and the benefits cannot possibly be counted! I feel incredibly lucky that both of my sons have been learning this martial art since they were 4. It has instilled self value, confidence and a mind body connection that extremely useful in all they do on and off the mats. The instructors take the time to learn about each child. They have created a welcoming learning environment for all who walk in the door. The adult classes are as challenging as you would like to make them. However, there is a balance of structure and pure enjoyment!

I love this place!! I currently attend the fitness kickboxing classes. I love the convenience of the drop in schedules and the instructors are so kind - they are always willing to encourage and support members. There is a great sense of community at THA and I always look forward to my classes. It is an empowering and fun way to get fit and just boost mood and energy in general!

My 6 year old has been with this program for about one year and we are having an excellent experience. Their program includes physical and mental exercises and discipline as well as valuable life lessons. They run a tight ship! I have also enrolled in the adult program. Very impressive!

This is an amazing martial arts school!My daughter has been taking classes here for a few months, and from t he very first day we were amazed by how good the instructors are and how kind, welcoming, and fun they make their lessons. There is a very clear sense of respect going both ways, of the fact the instructors care about each and every kid learning to do hapkido, and of constant encouragement to try and persevere and continue to get better.You can see the instructors enjoy and have fun teaching these kids, and you can see the kids respond to that. It's wonderful to watch the little ones master skills they didn't have, and it's great to see them take to heart the habits and ways of thinking that they talk about at the beginning of each lesson. In short, this place is something special, and we're grateful to be a part of it. I would strongly recommend this for anyone wishing their kids practice and develop their physical abilities, and to practice focus, respect (of self and others), discipline, hard work, kindness, patience... the list goes on.Thank you! and please keep doing an amazing job!

My son has been a "Lil Dragon" at THA Martial Arts for 3 years now and, as I was telling Miss Tess yesterday, our love for this school keeps growing every day. At each and every class, and at each and every fun + fantastic event that is put on, I sit in amazement to watch what Master Dayo has built with the help of each and every administrator, instructor, student instructor, and volunteer. The sense of welcoming and of family is very evident in everything they do. I don't how they do it, but everyone who works there even has every child's name memorized by their very first class. The way each and every person works with the children in their program is inspiring - it is very obvious that they love what they do. Not only are the people great, but so are the programs they offer. I can only speak to the Lil Dragon's program and their Kids Summer Camp at this point, but my son has gained not only important martial arts skills, but priceless life lessons about self-esteem, patience, confidence, control over their body and mind, leadership, friendship and family values. My son is currently a Brown Belt in the Lil Dragon program and he can't wait until he gets his Dragon Belt and then advances to the Kids Program. At that time, my youngest son will then begin his adventure with the Lil Dragons and I am so excited for both of them to see how far they will go in Hapkido.
