Martial Arts

Thank you to everyone who came out to the fundraiser for Michael on Saturday. It was a successfull day, raising a little over $1,000 towards the trip to Japan. We really appreciate the support...then again, it is not surprising considering how great everyone at our Dojo has been over all the years Michael has been studying there! Couldn't have found a better place for him to train...Gorge Karate Dojo is the best!!!!

Jindo offers a unique experience in martial arts training. Of course there is the necessary discipline and instruction of martial arts. However, Miss Lisa also provides a safe and positive environment for children and adolescents to be themselves and not only train but opportunities to socialize and to encourage each other inside and outside the training area. Jindo has been a part of my life since its inception and I am a proud parent of two Jindo students. The lessons learned can be utilized in life outside the facility. #1 best martial arts and life training in this area.

Barrie Jiu Jitsu is a great place to train. They work all aspects of self defence and fighting (striking, clench, throws, grappling, joint lock and controlling, and submissions). The warm ups are intense and guaranteed to get your cardio up. The classes are well organized and fun. I would recommend this dojo over most others for jiu jitsu or MMA in Barrie.

On vacation but not on vacation from training with Western Canadian Regional Championships almost here. Looked for a gym in Barrie that wasn't the typical box gym and came across this gem, Barrie Iron Gym. Super welcoming, helpful, friendly staff and lifters! Everything I needed and more. Thank you #barrieirongym for letting me come in and train. Barrie residents you must go check them out if you're serious about getting strong! #powerlifter #masters3powerlifter #notstrongforagirljuststrong #centralregionalpowerliftingchampionships

I now have done two six week programs with ChicBoxing. The classes are fun and relaxed but hard work. You will definitely be smiling while you are sweating. We are new to Barrie and this has been a great place to meet some wonderful women. Go and check out a class. The instructors are great and the owner Sara is warm and very caring. The extras she brings to the table are exceptional. Meredith in Barrie

Thanks to Jake for teaching my children self-confidence and respect. We have been part of this club for over 10 years, and highly recommend it.

Amazing reality based self defense. Learned more in 1 hour then I learned in 6 months at another location! Would recommend this place to everyone. If you are looking for true self defense and combatives this place will not disappoint. My wife even did 2 hours of women's self defense and loved it!

When I started classes at master chong's I never imagined that I would meet so many people that have changed my life for the better. My goal of course was to get my black belt and I did but I never imagined that I would get to become an instructor and have instructing as my first job. Since I've started they have helped me become more confident in myself. I wouldn't go to any other school.

Never been but looks cool, but not cool enough for 5 stars. (4/5)

This gym is the best!! They’re very affordable compared to everywhere else in the area and accommodating to people with busy schedules. I had ZERO experience with any martial arts whatsoever when I started. They accept every and anyone who walks in the door and meet you where you’re at in terms of fitness, abilities, interests, etc. It’s a small gym with a community feel to it. Great for people of all ages and body types. I highly recommend giving it a try—first class is free so why not?

To say that I was nervous when I first joined TK Olympic would be an understatement; I hadn't trained in years, I was switching Taekwondo styles, and I was more than a bit out of shape. None of that mattered though as Master Darren, Master Leanne, Miss Lorraine, Miss Juliana and Master Jordan all welcomed me with open arms. They've been amazing at making me feel like part of the TK family and at motivating me to constantly improve. It has only been a short time but I've already lost a ton of weight, my skills have improved and I feel more confident. I don't think I would have been able to do it without them. I look forward to every single class and as soon as one finishes, I'm already counting down until the next! My only regret is that I didn't join sooner!

Brantford’s only choice for MMA great local gym with a family atmosphere.
