Hi praise for the wonderful team at Evoke. My 7 year old daughter loves the Little Dragon program and is exited to go to every single class. It's incredible to see the added boost in her confidence and focus in such a short period of time. Special events, such as the parent's night out, was also... a fun and exciting time for the kids and certainly appreciated by the parents.read more

This is by far one of the best kids parties we’ve ever hosted. We have celebrated both of our kids party here. It is an amazing experience for the kids. They are kept active with none stop games and make sure the birthday child is the center of the party! Can’t recommend enough.

I think it’s a great place for martial arts. The instructors are great and so kind. It’s a great place for birthday parties and summer camp. In general, the place is very clean and the instructors sanitize the mats after every class. The classes are split into age groups, which I think is cool.... It’s a great place to make friends. The bathrooms are clean, the mats are clean and everything is clean. It’s a great place for both adults and children to practice their martial arts.read more

My almost 9 yo had such a great time at Evoke summer camp in August. They were good at keeping kids busy and my kid was so excited to show us new martial arts skills everyday.

My son attended the Hapkido classes for a short time here. Unfortunately, we are moving very soon and he is not able to attend anymore. In these few weeks, he has learned so much that he is determined to continue with martial arts and Hapkido. He loved being in Evoke Martial Arts School with his... new friends and instructors. Besides physical strength, he also started learning discipline. As parents, we liked being able to attend and watch the classes, feeling much like being a part of the family. Thanks for everything one more time.read more

I cannot imagine my son’s childhood without his classes at Evoke. The best thing we could have done for him as parents is register him for the martial arts programme at this amazing place. He goes twice a week and has made incredible friendships, while learning the values of discipline, teamwork,... commitment, focus and hard work. We see the benefits with every single class. Even the summer camp programme is exemplary. Truly this place is one of the highlights of living in the area. Well done Evoke for caring about your Little Dragons so much.read more

Have been going here for the Muay Thai classes. The team is absolutely amazing!!! Very supportive, provide clear instructions and help for the classes, friendly and kind, and know you by name which I believe shows how much they care. The place itself is very clean, bright, and overall suitable for... the classes. I do a biweekly membership and it's definitely worth it if you can go consistently, otherwise they offer class packages too. I really enjoy going here and would recommend anyone considering a place to join here!read more

I've been going for kickboxing fitness classes for a few months now and the experience have been amazing. Was not intimidating at all when I first joined, as the instructors have all been very nice and are able to breakdown the workouts into easily digestible steps, without compromising on the... intensity. You will sweat!!!Facilities are clean and the class often comprises of people with varying fitness level. Always a great atmosphere and everyone motivates each other. If you're looking to learn kickboxing, or even try something new while getting into shape, then definitely recommend Evoke.read more
Maisie F.
I recently had the pleasure of participating in the kickboxing lessons, and I must say it was an absolutely exhilarating experience! From start to finish, every aspect of the session exceeded my expectations, leaving me feeling both physically and mentally empowered. Here's why I would... wholeheartedly give it a 5.0 rating:1. Expert Instruction: The kickboxing lesson was led by 2 highly skilled and knowledgeable instructors who demonstrated exceptional expertise in the art of kickboxing. Their ability to break down complex techniques into digestible steps made it easy for beginners like me to grasp the fundamentals quickly. Their constant guidance and encouragement throughout the session helped me improve my technique and push my limits.read more

My son has been attending classes for just over a month and really enjoys the program; he's asked a few times whether he can increase the number of weekly classes from 2 per week to more. I'm grateful for the combination of physical challenge, focus training, and the short meditation he gets at... the beginning of class. 5 stars.read more

I've been training at Evoke Martial Arts for a month and am so grateful for the experience! The team's genuine care and welcoming attitude make learning martial arts less intimidating and more enjoyable. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking to improve their physical and mental well-being.

I can’t say enough good things about the program and instructors at Evoke. There are other kids martial arts program offered across the city and closer to home, but what Evoke offers here is something I haven’t seen in other programs. They are compassionate and kind in their teachings but yet... expect individuals to focus and give their all. Evoke has built a safe environment for mix martial artists to learn and grow and to build not only their character but their phycological and physical strength. I can’t recommend Evoke enough. Both my girls have been attending since 2019. Thank you Master Dao and to the entire Evoke team & family.read more

Evoke martial arts reviews on Facebook
My son started the Lil Dragons program after doing the summer camp last year. We was 6 and now 7.
In grade 1 he was struggling with academics, anxiety, bullying as well as some other issues....
In September he started the program at Toronto Hapkido on Monday evenings. We immediately saw a change.
8 months later it’s like he’s a different boy!
- he is much happier and more playful
- much less anxiety and improved sleep
- much improved self esteem and confidence
- self motivated to practice at home and even challenged me to a 30 day push up challenge!
- grades went from Ds and Cs to Bs and 4 As!
- he talks to people of all ages with poise and respect
- most importantly his instructors are his new role models. He want to continue Martial Arts and one day be an instructor to future little Dragons
- thank you to the entire team. We owe you so much gratitude and look forward to seeing Maxi continue his journey!
Respectfully,
Samir Kassim-Lakharead more

I started Kick boxing 6 months ago, then added Muay Thai. I feel challenged in the best way with every class, my upper body strength and flexibility have increased and so has my endurance. T.H.A. is... an awesome place to reach your fitness goals, guided by coaches who love what they do!read more

Great for young kids. My daughter has been attending for a year and a half. She is always excited for her belt tests.

I've been at other martial arts schools over the years and THA is by far the best. Master Dayo, Ms. Tess and the other instructors are excellent and help you learn in a relaxed and fun environment. ... My wife, 7 year old son and I all are members and we'll eventually get our 3 year old to become a Lil' Dragon soon.
If you've ever thought of trying martial arts, you have to give The Toronto Hapkido Academy a try.- you'll love it!read more

My family has been part of the Evoke community for over 10 years. Not only have my children learned the many skills provided by the Hapkido curriculum, but the classes are led by a remarkable staff... who that incorporate important life lessons.
I can’t say enough about how much my two sons have gained from their many years of studying Hapkido at Evoke Martial Arts. It has helped with their balance, their fitness but more importantly their confidence and the ability to respect themselves and others. I highly recommend Evoke Martial Arts as a place for young and old to study Hapkido, Muay Thai, or kickboxing.read more

I started Hapkido ten years ago as a middle age adult, having never taken any martial art before. While athletic, I had little flexibility and the training that the senior belts were doing looked... impossible. Four years later, with hard work and encouragement, I was awarded my black belt.
I can’t say enough good things about Master Dayo, Miss Tess and the rest of the staff. I can honestly say that they, and the people I’ve trained with along the way, are like family.
Regardless of your age or athletic ability, I encourage you to give Hapkido a try. It is honestly one of the most rewarding things I have ever done.read more
