Evolucao Thai MMA School

Evolucao Thai has the best martial arts program available in Toronto. They offer so many different classes - there's something for everyone here. I've gained the confidence and essential life skills within the walls of this academy. The instructors are top notch and I highlight recommend checking out coach Mauricios Muay Thai class, very detailed and extremely fun. Life changing.

Whether you are looking for BJJ, Brazilian Muay Thai or MMA this is the best gym you will find. But don't just take my word for it... look at all the champions they produce. I have trained and know many people within GTA and Mauricio is the top person to learn from, bar none! Plus the gym has a great attitude and very inviting to all questions... Make sure you drink tons of water and go try one class, you will be hooked. Get it?....: )

I love the entire team at Evolucao Thai. Their coaches are friendly, experienced and and amazing teachers. The members are welcoming regardless if you have martial arts experience or not. This is one of the few places where I can train in Budokon Mobility in Toronto. I highly recommend this dojo to everyone.

I had such a great time training with Mauricio and all the guys at Evolucao Thai. I was encouraged to try all the classes on offer including MMA and kickboxing. I loved the atmosphere, teaching philosophy and something that is often underreported on, cleanliness. Mats were always cleaned before class and that makes for a pleasant experience. Whenever I am back in Toronto I will be training there. I’ve trained around the world and this is the place to be. Thank you for the training professor! OSS

Great training! The environment is welcoming and the people are friendly! The academy caters to everyone of all different fitness levels, looking to learn martial arts. If you're looking to lose weight, get in shape, learn a new discipline or become a pro fighter, head coach Mauricio and his team can help you get there!

I met Coach Mauricio 7 years ago and thanks to him ....... my life was and is being transformed! I should mention that as the oldest student here , I always felt a sense of safety and respect and that value extends to all the students and instructors who train here . Obrigado Evolucao Thai

Years ago I was making the transition from kickboxing to MMA, I had a few years of competitive experience and knew what I was looking for. In my search I came across two gyms that fit the bill, Evolucao was the first that I visited. I never went to check out the second gym on my list because after attending my first class here I knew this was the place to be. When I first came in I was warmly greeted by Mauricio (the head instructor) and given a mini tour of the gym after signing a waiver (at the time the gym was located on Dufferin). I told Mauricio that I had experience and was looking to compete, he heard me out and had me spar two of his best students to test my ability. Both students easily outclassed me but even so Mauricio saw potential; he's the type of guy who sees the best in everyone. Most gyms would have you go through a tier system and work your way up regardless of claimed skill level, not here, at Evolucao Thai it's straight to the point. The reason I knew this place was special was because of the energy of the class, everyone got along, the more experienced people helped others learn things they didn't know and no one was ever harassed or put down, any criticism was constructive and polite. There aren't separate groups for beginners and advanced students, I think this is a good thing as it allows new students to learn directly from the more experienced ones and gives them a look at the skills they will eventually develope in action right before their eyes. It also creates stronger bonds between members of the gym and opportunities for new friendships and connections across the board. All the coaches are competent and kind and serve as great examples for all students, promoting healthy balanced lifestyles. They understand that not all students are looking to go pro yet treat all with the same respect. Whether you're looking to become a champion or just have some fun while learning a new skill, Evolucao Thai will show you the way. As Mauricio says: "we don't learn to fight to cause others pain, we learn to fight to learn the truth of ourselves and how to make our dreams our reality".
