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!
