Martial Arts

Friendly, respectful, and fun! Our son has been taking classes here for a while now and we are so happy to find a group that promotes such healthy mental and physical attributes. Many thanks to Mr. Dan! I would recommend this dojo to anyone of any age or skill level.

Great value! Friendly atmosphere!

In an modern society where role models are now found in popular TV its refreshing to find a group that focuses on, and places value in, respect, personal conduct, accountability, and responsibility to self and others. There's far more to this dojo than just self defense, and getting into shape, typical to what most people think of when karate is the subject at hand. "Getting into shape" should include the whole person, not just the gut and gun show. 9 1/2

My friend and I wanted to try Jiu-jitsu for the first time, and we loved the entire experience at Isshindo. Everyone was extremely patient, friendly, and knowledgeable. The instructor was everything you could want as a new person starting a martial art, or as an experienced practitioner, because he could meet people at their level. He taught in an efficient, interesting, and fun style. Moreover, Jiu-Jitsu is an incredible art and I highly recommend it! Also a super good workout.

My son is a part of the KimNik tiny tigers program. My favorite thing about this program is gram is that every week has a valuable lesson for children. Whether it be about sharing, listening or asking for help and karate is always built around that lesson. Sensi always walks around and ensures the children are getting some one on one time and there are always a few older children there to role model and help. The program balances fun and learning perfectly for 3-5 year olds

I have been training with Master Mostafa for almost two years now. First met him when he and his teachers came to my son's birthday party four years ago with almost 40, 6 year old kids to teach and train them at my son's "ninja" party! The kids had a blast and Mostafa and his crew kept them all interested and having fun! I personally now come for private or semi private lessons in the morning twice a week, much too early for my liking but the only time I can find to exercise .. notwithstanding no one else is moving in my house or neighbourhood and the sun has not yet risen, I am happy to get up and go as I look forward to the workout with Mostafa! He keeps the sessions changing and is motivating and encouraging and truly cares about all of his students! He has an amazing ability to connect with young and old alike and get the best out of all of us! Highly recommend Golden Glory for personal or group sessions!

Here is a school that emphasizes leadership skills and personal growth to go along with the traditional martial arts curriculum, which covers many subjects: self defense, jiu-jitsu, MMA, weapons, and more. In time you will realize benefits in all aspects of your life. Recommended for all ages.

Exceptional leadership, top-quality program , and the best teaching and coaching style with children! Osu Sensei!!

Incredible. Family atmosphere, fighting workout for all levels

Best martial arts school ever.

Was visiting Nanaimo from out of town. This boxing gym was one of the reason I stuck around the city for so long. Loved coming back and working out with the local guys. Such nice people. They are a blast to be around. Also, I was quite impressed with the activities they had going on for the kids! Montreal may be a boxing mecca, but the kids aren't having as much fun as with Barry and the guys at Nanaimo! Hats off - see you soon.
