I was an advocate on getting my 5 year old Son into Martial Arts, I've researched a lot and thought…read morethat Taekwondo was the chosen one. This year once the kids started school here in Oakville, I called "Rising Sun" and spoke with Master Danni, he was very pleasant and helpful and invited us for a free week trial. On the first day, they treated my son as if he belonged there already and on the second day we signed up for their One Year Program. My Son is So excited and said that he wants to become a Black belt and even if it takes him Ten years, he will get it... So glad that he is enjoying it and I know a huge reason for it is this establishment. Thank you Master Martin and Master Danni, looking forward to a Great Journey ahead!!!!

There is a lot that I can say about training here. I have learned much about compassion, survival…read moreand loyalty. Long story short: "Trust Classical Training". By this I mean: trust the pushups, trust the kata, trust the drills, and trust the critiques. If you are looking for a school that goes above and beyond the fighting aspect, HERE IS THE PLACE TO GO. As Health Science and Kinesiology graduate, I can vouche for the benefits of children, youth, adults, and even our Elders training here at CMAC. Physical, neurological, psychological and the list goes on. Being apart of this school is a journey worth any and all struggles. The beauty is that we struggle and work through things together. Especially the girls here, we got us a sistahood built on Respect, hard work and Love. It doesn't matter if we don't get along outside, because the dojo is no place for ego and aggression. We train hard, we hold it together, and we have each other's back. No woman gets left behind at the DaPo. Ohana After all of these years, It's an inspiring feeling being able to train under someone like Sensei and Ms.Samson.

From the owner: Dapo Martial Arts trains kids, teens, and adults in Mississauga, ages 4 to adult, across four…read morestyles: self-defence-based Karate-do, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Arnis/Kali, and Tai Chi Chuan/Qi Gong. Kids ages 4 to 7 train Karate-do and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu; ages 8 to 12 add kickboxing and sparring. Teens carry that training into Arnis/Kali and find a discipline that shows up in their schoolwork. Adults are the only group with access to every program, training to get stronger, sharper, and steadier under pressure. Arnis/Kali is Filipino stick and blade self-defence, taught alongside our striking and grappling programs. Tai Chi Chuan and Qi Gong are taught as one class, for adults only, building balance and steadiness rather than speed. We also run a dedicated Women's Self Defense class weekly, and deliver introductory martial arts and self-defence sessions at schools across the Greater Toronto Area. Over 60 students have earned a black belt here — reserved for students 18 and older, reached in about four years of consistent training. We can't give you a belt. Only your own work can. Free trial class.

Just there for self-improvement, perfect! Everyone is full of motivation and is completely unjudgmental. Both of the coaches are amazing people who have personally helped me through a lot, even when I wasn't the best to them. They have made me a better person, as well as teaching me how to manage my anger in better ways. I 100% recommend this gym as I have been going consistently for more than 4 months. I love Valhalla MMA and everyone who is in that building. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's success, as well as the newcomers who want to improve themselves. THANK YOU VALHALLA MMA!

Steve runs one of the best, if not the very best, combat based martial arts schools in Toronto…read more Everything he teaches is realistic and just requires dedication and your own creativity in order to make these fighting strategies work. We started here with just my son taking the initial lessons. But, after I saw how great Steve was with the kid's classes, I decided to join and I'm glad I did. Steve blends most every practical martial art out there into a complete system that encompasses ground fighting, "stand up" and weapons training. And the best thing is Steve is certified by the most recognized big name martial artists out there Like Dan Inosanto ( one of the most famous senior students of Bruce Lee). To get this type of quality instruction elsewhere you'd definitely spend 3 to 4 times more...easily!
