Evoke is amazing! They are so friendly and experienced! They have enough staff to go around and correct the moves for each kid which is so helpful! My daughter has grown confidence we have never seen before! Highly recommend!!

I know the place for about nine years. Somehow I missed to leave a review earlier! My kids going there learned patience, respect, social skills in addition to their martial art techniques. They gained self confidence and experienced deep friendships. Our lives were much easier when it came to teenage... emotions!read more

We love this program! All the staff is super-friendly and knowledgeable. Besides burning a lot of energy, our son is quickly improving his self-esteem and self-regulation. The keywords and actions they work on, like patience and discipline, are very helpful. Thank you Evoke Team!

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 daughter had an amazing time during March break. She loved the obstacle courses, the mission impossible race, and the pizza party. Everything was well organized and the coaches were great with the kids. Evoke is a wonderful place to go and exercise as well. The fitness kickboxing program is great and... helped me get back in shape. Thank you Evoke Martial Arts & Kickboxing for everything!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

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.

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

After attending the first of 2 kickboxing trial classes at Evoke, I felt so good that I decided to sign up right away! I am not a person who is motivated at a regular gym without instruction. Here, the academy and the instructors have such good, positive energy. They understand your endurance levels and tell... you to put in as much effort as you can while also making sure to gently encourage you to test and push your limit each time. I saw results in just 3 classes in being able to hold my plank longer than my first class. Love that every class focuses on improving kickboxing technique and has different combos and burnouts. In my 5 weeks here my endurance, fitness levels and breathing has improved. Also happy that my sciatica that used to affect me often while walking, had completely gone away in less than 2 weeks.I should mention that they take the time to personally check in via text to see if you’re ok when you miss a class. The camaraderie is instant here amongst members and staff. 🙂 Thanks, team, for being so wonderful!read more

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

Time management was excellent, everything was ready when we arrived.Best birthday party experience. Highly recommend!!My daughter also attends the Hapkido Kidz class at Evoke! When she first started, it was really challenging for her. But the teachers at Evoke were so encouraging and supportive that very soon she started getting comfortable in her classes.

Thank you so much for your wonderful lessons and teaching these important life skills with so much determination!Highly recommend their classes!read more

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

Why some are skeptical about Kids Karate
The challenge with many kids karate Toronto classes is that they aren’t organically organized to be age-appropriate, or they simply focus on the art of Karate.
We step up and fill in the gaps. There are also separate classes for 4 -5 year olds, and 6 – 7 year olds; making sure your child is appropriately challenged.
What’s different about Kids Karate Toronto classes at Evoke?
Our age-appropriate lessons incorporate movement from martial arts disciplines like taekwondo, jiu-jitsu, hapkido, and karate.
It is designed to help enhance motor skills and athletic performance in children ages 4 to 7
What does your child get from our classes?
Social skills, life-skills, and physical skills. We complement their classes with lessons that offer more than just punching and kicking.
There is nothing more satisfying than seeing your child unleash their potential and becoming a better version of themselves.

For the past two decades Evoke martial arts has been the leader in age-appropriate kids karate Toronto classes in the GTA.
About Kids Karate Toronto classes at Evoke:
Our Lil’ Dragons program offer more than cliché themes like focus, confidence, or discipline.
We curated a kids’ karate Toronto program that not only provides constructive fun and martial arts skills, but also offers invaluable tools that help them unleash the best versions of themselves in every class they attend.
With a nurturing team of experienced and well-trained instructors each lesson your child attends is always a ton of fun, safe, and beginner-friendly.
What sets our Lil’ Dragons karate program apart is not so much of the “type of martial art” we teach, but how we teach kids. We are confident that you will love what we do.
Your child’s unwaning focus, athletic potential, and unshakeable confidence starts here.
We have tried other kids Karate Toronto schools. This is the only one our son took well to and loves! He’s enthusiastic and looks forward to them every week. Several of his friends have joined the classes as well. They’re all 5-6 years old and we have nothing but good things to say about the classes, the instructors and the staff. Watching my son progress over the past few months has been very satisfying. Highly recommend Evoke to anyone who’s children are interested in martial arts!.
