THE BEST MARTIAL ARTS PROGRAM FOR AGES 4 – 7:

We developed a children’s karate curriculum backed by many years of research in child education programming.

There are also separate classes for 4 – 5 year olds and 6 – 7 year olds. Our goal is to ensure your child is appropriately challenged and engaged.

Using progressive teaching methods that combine life-skills and martial arts, and over a decade of experience, our program help children become better versions of themselves.

The excitement – the yelling, the games, the punching and kicking, the vocabulary of instruction – immerses them in a fun-filled experience with a perfect balance of fun and learning.

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 🙂

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!

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!

Shehrose Rehmani

My 7 year old son loves his martial arts classes at Evoke and looks forward to it every week. I appreciate the high number of instructors to students ratio, the adaptable approach instructors take for the younger students vs older students.

We recently hosted my 7yo son's birthday party at Evoke. We were blown away by Evoke's hospitality and level of service. All of the kids that attended had a blast playing ninja group games and competing in obstacle courses. We were so impressed by the instructors' enthusiasm, patience, and professionalism. They were also so helpful with party set-up and clean-up. Highly recommend Evoke, and we will most likely be back!

My daughter is 5 years old and loves her classes. Evoke does a wonderful job teaching the kids self defense and life skills to help them excel in life.

Lessons are organize by age to make sure your children are appropriately challenged.

Lil’ Dragons are separated into 4 & 5 year olds, and 6 & 7 year olds. Older siblings will be in our kids program (ages 8 to 12).

However classes, and programs, typically run back-to-back. On some days we even have children’s karate classes simultaneously on an adjacent training floor to make attendance convenient for families with siblings.

Do kids get to fight each other or compete

There is no sparring or competitions for this age group.

We minimize physical contact and instead use karate and taekwondo movement and technique to develop excellent motor skills.

My family has been a part of the Evoke family 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.
