About Kids Martial Arts Toronto Classes at Evoke Martial Arts Academy:

For over 20 years our kids martial arts Toronto program have provided a unique experience that blends martial arts training with essential life skills education in safe, high-energy, and beginner-friendly classes.

Many studios that offer martial arts for kids in Toronto weren’t truly designed with children in mind.

At Evoke, we do things differently. With our kids martial arts Toronto classes we use a time tested age-appropriate curriculum that is designed to target their various emotional, physical, and intellectual stages of development.

Instead of getting lost in the confusion of different styles – karate, jiu-jitsu, hapkido, taekwondo, judo, or kickboxing – our lessons blends the most effective elements into a kids martial arts Toronto program built specifically for ages 8 to 12.

Every class is centered around a strong foundation of life skills and functional mixed martial arts training; taught in a way that is relevant to their age and abilities.

Anna Maria Doumouras

This is the second year my children have attended this camp. The first year they only went for half a day but they loved it so much that they begged to go for a full day this year. Needless to say, they want to go back next year! Thank you to all the staff who made their experience memorable for the past two years, we’ll see you again soon!

I've had my 2 girls participating on Evoke's Little Dragon Program and strongly recommend it. The instructors are great with children, the classes as fun and engaging and I feel the program is also a strong reinforcement for the children to develop discipline and self-confidence. 5 stars for sure 🙂

Meghan L

My son attended a birthday party for 4 year olds recently at Evoke. The 3 instructors leading the party were absolutely phenomenal. I've never been to a party with such enthusiastic and friendly instructors...they really made the event! The space was also so bright and clean. We had an amazing time and plan to enrol in a class soon!

Lima Soudah

Professional, clean and friendly staff. I have a closer martial arts academy just facing my house but I prefered this one for the mentioned reasons.
Highly recommended!
