Judo (the "gentle way") was developed by Professor Jigoro Kano in 1882. More than martial art, it is a form of physical, intellectual, and moral education based on the principles of maximum efficiency with minimum effort ("seiryoku zenyo") and mutual welfare and benefit ("jita kyoei"). Derived from jiujitsu, modern day judo techniques consist of throws ("nage waza") and grappling controls ("kateme waza").Today, judo is an Olympic sport and is practiced in over 195 countries around the world.

With far less than 10% of the world’s Jiu-Jitsu student base actively participating in tournaments, why base 95% of your training around competitions & point scoring systems that greatly limit your study of the art?

Being successful in a BJJ tournament setting calls for the practice of specific tactics based on the rules of the game. This shift in training focus many to neglect the “Martial art” aspect of the Jiu-Jitsu in place of better competitive results .

Our Mississauga martial arts academy offers quality training all aspects of the art but what makes us different than most academies is……

Core Jiu-Jitsu’s primary goal is to ensure students for all age’s , fitness levels get complete training in the arts of Jiu-Jitsu, building skills applicable to any situation

Unlike many BJJ and Grappling academies we realize not everyone training Jiu-Jitsu’s #1 focus is on being a the top competitor. We do offer a highly successful program for our but it is not something we force on everyone that walks in the door.

Jiu-Jitsu is a complete self defense system and martial art with many elements. The programs offered at our Mississauga BJJ academy ensure you have a chance to learn to learn what you need most.

In academies focused mainly on Intense competition training, those looking for the other aspects of the art often slip between the cracks quitting due to injury, a lack of progress or just being burnt out from the grind of hard training.

Jayna started this program because we felt she was very shy and quiet and would not speak up and express herself. What she is learning in karate is helping her be more positive, greater self-esteem and she speaks up when needed to communicate effectively with others.


Karate has taught me how to defend myself and others. In karate I have to be patient and work very hard to get my next belt. I have to pay attention to Sensei and focus on kata so I can learn and get better. Karate helps me pay attention in school. - Michael "As parents we continue to see Michael grow in confidence and self esteem as he progresses through his Karate program. Michael is starting to understand that hard work and dedication is required in anything you do in life, and I believe this comes from his exposure to Karate." - Michael's Dad


Because it is the best dojo around with the most flexibility/variety in classes for adults. The instructors are excellent and they make you feel like you belong and are welcomed.


"The benefits of Jacob we've seen is confidence because he can say his speech in front of people, speak up in show and tell, and say hi to me at school. Jacob shows independence by remembering to read his book, doing his homework, and playing with his little brother. He shows respect by listening to Mom and Dad, and taking turns with ipads and toys. Jacob always has a smile and he is very excited to grade for his ORANGE BELT!"

Recently one of our neighbours had mentioned how respectful Christopher was. When the parent asked Christopher who taught him that level of respect he immediately mentioned us, his parents, but quickly added "I learn a lot about respect at Karate too!" We have always tried to teach Christopher respect, it's nice to know that by him participating in Karate, the Academy of Martial Arts promotes the same values that we try to instil in him each day.

Since I started attending the Academy of Martial Arts, I have had such a great experience. There is such a positive attitude as soon as you step through the doors and everyone is nice. I've been focusing on becoming a black belt more than ever before, something changed and now its more of a need to come to the dojo than a work out, because I want to achieve getting to black belt level. I am a lot more confident than I was before, especially when shouting my kiai, which I used to be shy of shouting in the dojo. I am not as nervous to present my kata in front of the class if necessary because I know that being there will give me a new set of improvements to make my kata better. I am trying very hard to improve my fitness level because I am still learning. Warm up is when I struggle the most because of push ups but part of why I come is to improve on upper body strength. I try my best to make it to the dojo at least two times a week because I don't want to let go of my goal and since I had joined for a team for the tournament I now come about four times a week. I find it a good way to bond with other people in the dojo as well as improve myself. Every time I come with a positive attitude and I am ready for what each class throws at me. I am happy to have found the Academy of Martial Arts because it has a great experience and a hope to a lot more.

At Mississauga Martial Arts Centre (MMAC), the ITF style of Tae Kwon-Do is taught to children and adults in a fun but disciplined environment. Tae Kwon-Do promotes respecting and helping others and is a guide for the formation of an outstanding character. This well respected art is well-suited to all personality types. It makes the very aggressive child more calm and respectful towards others, while making the timid child more outgoing and self-confident.

All beginner classes are taught at a no contact level and focus on learning strong fundamental techniques. Students then use this knowledge as a foundation to build upon as they continue their training on their journey to black belt. While our training is strict, our members feel a sense of support and comradery in the family environment we have worked hard to create. Students are encouraged to push past their boundaries to continuously grow and develop. This sense of accomplishment nurtures the student’s self-esteem and self-confidence, which becomes evident in all aspects of their daily life.

At MMAC, we embrace the traditional mindset in which Tae Kwon-Do is much more than an “activity” that a student participates in once in a while – it truly becomes a way of life. The principals of respect, hard work and perseverance learned in class are carried by the student into their everyday life, extending the practice far beyond the Do Jang.

It takes a significant amount of training and dedication to achieve the level of black belt, averaging 5-7 years in total. There is a maturity and sense of responsibility that comes with reaching this level. We are proud to say that our students that have accomplished this goal have proven to have earned it by training hard and giving back to the sport by helping to teach junior level students.

In order to truly benefit from the program, students should train a minimum of twice per week. Regular training helps to create consistency and commitment with the student and increases their engagement and connection to the art.

We offer several beginner classes per week for children ages 3 and up, as well as beginner classes for adults of all ages. We welcome anyone interested to come visit us for two free, no obligation trial classes to see if Tae Kwon-Do is the right fit for you and your child!
