Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do & Krav Maga

Expérience fantastique: I trained here in krav maga with my father for a year and can honestly say I am grateful for the time I have spent. Raymond is a dedicated instructor who helped me push myself in a way I couldn’t have done on my own. It’s a great facility, everyone was very courteous and kind. I’d recommend it to anyone who’s looking to improve their physical fitness, self-confidence and self-defence skills.

Expérience fantastique: Having studied different martial arts when I was younger I had been looking for a way to get back into it for some time. I wanted something that would have real-world applicability and everything pointed to Krav Maga. Being an Internet warrior like everyone else I did some research.. Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do & Krav Maga was clearly the top choice. Our instructor, Raymond Wong, is among the best of the best - no matter your level of experience, he's got an approachable, grounded demeanour and tells it like it is. Safety in training and awareness of your own physical condition & that of your training partners is also something Raymond emphasizes as paramount. Krav Maga is not about "fighting" - it's about keeping yourself (and those you care about) safe in a potentially dangerous situation. With carefully crafted lessons day-by-day, week-by-week, you won't just be repeating the same things over & over. You will hone your skills using interesting variations on what you've learned, over time. Krav Maga will make you think differently. You will start to gain a real understanding of what can happen in a street scenario and develop the tools you need to quickly deal with a threat to your safety. Another amazing benefit is the massive energy boost I get after our 45-min training sessions - even on days where I was feeling tired beforehand, I feel rejuvenated afterward! Raymond is a fantastic instructor and takes the time to offer individual advice on where you need to improve. Evelyn & Leo are always wonderful to talk to, as well.. you can tell that this is not just a family business, but a way of life. They run a tight ship and a clean, safe facility. The other students (varying ages, men and women) are fantastic also - no egos, just everyone helping one another to learn. BTW I don't live anywhere near the studio (35 min on a good traffic day) but it's definitely worth the trip to Oshawa to train with the best instructor around. If you are on the fence, it's time to get off the fence - try Krav Maga at Leo Wong's. You'll be so glad you did!

Expérience fantastique: I started attending Krav Maga classes here a few months ago. I am so grateful that I can learn how to defend myself in a safe and respectful environment! Everyday, there is more news about violence in the city. Despite that, attending classes here has empowered me tremendously. Thank you so much.

Expérience fantastique: I joined Leo Wong's Krav Maga class a few months ago and have completely enjoyed the classes. Raymond is a great instructor, directions are easy to follow and it is a full workout.

Expérience fantastique: I consider myself very lucky to have had the opportunity to gain some training through Raymond. He is very realistic in his approach and pays close attention to technique so you can establish good habits.

Expérience fantastique: Leo Wongs, if you've been downtown Oshawa anytime in the last 49 years then you’ve seen the sign. There’s a reason this place has been so well established in the community and has lasted when other training facilities haven’t, they are the real deal. I’ve been training Krav Maga here and my only regret is that I didn’t start training here years ago. Raymond is an incredible teacher and he REALLY knows his stuff. It’s evident he’s been doing it his whole life and after every class I’m so amped I only wish classes were longer. The practicality of Krav is amazing and I always feel more confident and strong after every class. The facility is very clean, Master Wong and Mrs. Wong are very friendly and the students are all amazing and helpful. If you are serious about learning something that very well may save your life in a tough situation then look no further. Train Krav Maga. I love it. Oh, and if you’re concerned about how “expensive” it is or sounds, well bottom line you get what you pay for, is your life not worth it? (And it really isn’t that expensive considering what you get in return) No matter your age or fitness level training Krav Maga is for you.

Expérience fantastique: Overall this club is excellent if you Want to learn a practical martial art that could potentially save your life. I have been going to the club for just under a year now for Krav Maga and the experience has been consistently good. The facility and equipment used is in good shape and support learning well. Raymond is an excellent instructor who is very straightforward in his plans for the daily lesson. He does generally have an idea of what he wants to teach each week. He very much embodies what a Krav Maga should be with his realistic outlook on scenarios. He doesn't try to dodge around reality. Which is what you want from a martial art instrucutor. He is still friendly overall but is still going to tell you how the situation is with no filter It's a family run business and the family is very friendly and welcoming. Overall if your willing to commit to a weekly schedule (1 hour for 2 days a week with a choice between Monday Friday wednesday) and want to learn Krav Maga. This is definitely the place to do it.

Expérience fantastique: My daughter (11) and I (40) both were looking for a way to get some exercise and of course be able to defend ourselves. With 49 years in business, family owned and operated and all of the credentials, Leo Wong's was a no brainer. For us, we couldn't be happier that we joined! My daughter is loving the Tae-Kwon-Do classes. Where can you get 49 years of experience instruction for your child(That's right, Leo still suits up to teach the students)? Since starting in January of this year Kyla has learned so much and gained great confidence in herself (and I feel better as well). For me and Krav Maga, well I can't say enough about training with Raymond. He brings it every class, pushes me to be my best and also makes the classes fun along the way. There was one class where we were doing sit ups against the wall and I was feeling pretty good....Raymond sat beside me, did sit-ups beside me and really gave me more motivation to push myself harder. I'll never forget how it felt to have my coach with me every step of the way. Let's just say, I've recommended a friend to join me and we are absolutely loving our training! Last but not least, don't tell Leo and Raymond but my favourite has to be Evelyn. She takes the cake when it comes to being organized. She is clear and direct and I often spend time with her (and Leo) chatting after class. I'm overdue on writing this review and if you are reading this review and are looking for a family friendly place to get in shape, try something new and of course feel confident that you can defend yourself, look no further. Remember, the only way to plan for a bad day is to ensure you are prepared. Come on and join Kyla and I. We'll see you there! Ian and Kyla Garnett

Expérience fantastique: The best decision I've made in a long time! From being greeted with open arms (from day one and before & after every class) in a family-friendly atmosphere and from a family-run business to being pushed, just a little bit more, every class, by an amazing instructor. Raymond's clearly skilled and knows what he's doing but he also knows how to break it down and teach it, always providing context and real life scenarios. He's got a keen eye and takes the time to know where each student is 'at' with both their physicality and their skillset so he can push you to work on what you specifically need to while ensuring everyone's safety. I was not expecting the individualized training and feedback in a group setting and it has made a real difference for me. I knew nothing and no one when I arrived and I've learned so much and feel welcomed every class - in addition to becoming stronger and more flexible every week. I can't say enough about how much I look forward to these classes!

Expérience fantastique: Very disciplined and friendly training facility. Instructor is skilled and down to earth. Spends one on one time with everyone and makes sure everyone gets it before moving on the next stage. Very passionate about what he does and teaches, hard to find that everywhere. If you are looking for a training facility, this is the place to be!

Expérience fantastique: This establishment is of high quality, disciplined and self-motivated instructors. I have tried many different self-defence classes before and this school is definitely one of my favourites and most effective.

Expérience fantastique: I have been coming here for over two years, have always had and am still having an amazing experience. Raymond makes sure that everyone trains as if it is a real incident and at the same time makes sure that everyone is safe. I highly recommend Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do & Krav Maga to everyone who wants a real life experience in a training environment.

Expérience fantastique: Starting Krav Maga this year with no martial arts training. Raymond has done a tremendous job training me and my class mates. Raymond is an amazing teacher always pushing you in the safest manner. I highly recommend everyone to experience this place because you will not regret it. Krav Maga has been an amazing experience and I cannot wait to continue this journey.

Expérience fantastique: As a woman, I was in search of a way to effectively defend myself, while also adding some high-intensity physical activity to my week. I was also very nervous to join any type of group physical activity, being quite overweight & low in self-esteem. Even so, after just 1 class I knew that I had found the perfect fit, learning Krav Maga with Raymond! His no-nonsense approach drills right down to what's important, so each class is packed with maximum reward & everyone is so supportive & encouraging! I already feel stronger & more capable & I look forward to many more years of improvement, under Raymond's instruction!

Expérience fantastique: My son been attending Leo Wong's school from 1995 & still going he start with Tae Kwon Do with Leo & when Raymond add the Krav Maga into the school he went into that part of the school . Any one that would like to be training with top instructor's this is the school for you.

Expérience fantastique: I have always been interested in the combative arts and the practice of Krav Maga at the Leo Wong TKD and Krav Maga School was a natural fit. It was also more than I had bargained for. Since joining, I have experienced weight loss and body toning form the cardio body conditioning employed throughout every class. The no nonsense instruction with an emphasis on safety focuses on mental and physical preparedness. The instructor is knowledgeable and a multi-disciplined martial artist with a life-long dedication to his craft. His dedication inspires a great deal of loyalty among the school’s membership which for some has spanned decades and for others generational instruction for their loved ones. Self-defense is about discipline and confidence which the instruction at the Leo Wong’s TKD and Krav Maga School gives you in spades.

Expérience fantastique: It has been an amazing experience to watch our daughter gain confidence and skills with Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do. We are so happy to be supporting a local family that has been a part of the community for so long - and we look forward to more of the family participating in training soon!

Expérience fantastique: I have been taking Krav Maga program for 4 months now, at Leo Wong's and Raymond is the real deal. A highly skilled and personable instructor who does a great job of ensuring that his teachings have a high degree of real world usefulness. I am fortunate to train under such a skilled and capable instructor. One of the bonus in class is that Raymond play music and that give you more energy to workout. I'm highly recommend this class to who wanted to get fit and learn self-defense at the same time (Leo Wong Tae Kwon Do & Krav Maga) is the place to go.

Expérience fantastique: This is one of the best martial arts schools around. Raymond pushes his class hard and as a result we can do things we never thought was possible before. Raymond is very professional and knowledgeable in Krav Maga. I've been going to this school for a year, looking forward to many more years to come.

Expérience fantastique: My son has been going here since just after he turned 4. He's almost 10 now and just got his purple belt, working hard 2-3 times a week for the last almost 6 years. It's a wonderful family-owned business that cares about both the students and the martial art versus other places you might come across that are "black belt factories" that hand belts out long before kids have truly earned them. Even when my son missed an entire year due to COVID, they worked hard with him to ensure he was practicing at home and to get him back up to speed when he finally returned. They have also taken proper measures to ensure that kids can still train safely during the pandemic. I did a boot camp and one-year of Krav Maga as well and loved it. I would have continued Krav and did another boot camp if my schedule would permit. Raymond, Leo, and the rest of the team are wonderful and patient with the kids, and Evelyn puts her heart and soul into making sure the company runs like a well-oiled machine. I would highly recommend Leo Wong's to anyone looking to get their child into martial arts. And if you're looking for a good workout that will actually teach you some useful skills as well, including how to defend yourself against an attacker, Krav Maga is loads of fun and a serious workout!

Expérience fantastique: I have 2 teenage daughters who wanted to learn self defence. I went to the Wong’s. When I spoke with Raymond’s mom to register them, she got me to sign up my younger daughter and son. LOL - love Mrs. Wong! It’s a great family business, it’s clean, and the instruction is excellent. You know Raymond and his father practice the art. Now our family is connected to their family. Have fun and get fit from professionals. (And Mrs. Wong says people who train with her son succeed with their Police Services applications, so if you’re training with a specific goal, Leo Wong’s is the best.) There’s construction in front, so park off Athol St at the back.

Expérience fantastique: First of all, Raymond is a great instructor! This is the place to send your kids for their Tiny Tiger program or their Krav maga program for adults. The school follow a strict Covid protocol to ensure everybodys safety.

Expérience fantastique: My son started Tiny Tigers over a year ago and he is always so excited to go. Raymond and the others all really care about the kids and it shows! They make sure parents are well informed about progress and even share pictures and videos on a regular basis. Tiny Tigers is a great starting class for children wanting to learn martial arts. I am so happy that we started taekwondo at Leo Wong's.

Expérience fantastique: We put my son in Tiny Tigers at 4 and although he may have had a rough start, Master Raymond kept working with him and now my son looks forward to going to every class. Great vibes from this family owned Dojo. Generations of families train here and it's easy to see why. Master Raymond and his family really care about the progress of their students..

Expérience fantastique: We signed our daughter (4 yo) up for Tiny Tigers and she absolutely loves the class. The facility is clean and organized with great communication and the instructors are excellent. Our daughter is already looking forward to coming back from Christmas break. We drive from Bowmanville to Leo Wong's and will continue to do so for future classes. Thank you Leo, Evelyn and Raymond.

Expérience fantastique: The instructors at this school are excellent. They are professional, patient and set the students up to excel.

Expérience fantastique: I take Krav Maga at Leo Wong's and Raymond is the real deal. A highly skilled and personable instructor who does a great job of ensuring that his teachings have a high degree of real world usefulness. I am fortunate to train under such a skilled and capable instructor.

Expérience fantastique: My twin daughters have been attending here for more than a year now. They are typically very shy in school so we wanted to expose them to group classes and at same time learn self defense. I have notice a huge improvement with their self confidence and are now always very eager to participate in group activities. Their school teacher also confirmed that. Thankful for their Tae Kwon Do classes and instructors for that. I'm glad we took them here. I highly recommend this place.

Expérience fantastique: Two generations of our family have trained with Leo Wongs TKD. The atmosphere is positive with professional instruction. My son began training at five. I have notice a change in his self confidence and ability to listen and follow instructions . It is a good feeling when you child is eager to go to class and tell all about the things they have learned. I have strongly recommended Leo Wongs TKD to all my friends and their families. We are very lucky to have a school like this in our community.

Expérience fantastique: Wish I could give more than a 5 star review. My husband and I go to the Krav Maga classes lead by Mr. Raymond and his team and Our two girls are also in tiny tigers. The studio has a warm and friendly atmosphere and your always greeting with a smile from Mr. & Mrs. Wong. Mr. Raymond knows his stuff and is very passionate in what he does. I wouldn’t go anywhere else, the studio is simply the best!!

Expérience fantastique: I have been training in the Krav Maga program at Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do for over ten years. I was looking for an activity that involved stretching, flexibility and core strength to help with a chronic injury. (Yes, you read correctly. Martial arts to help with an injury). I was nervous because I had never taken martial arts before, and wasn't sure how it would work with my situation. Their response was "We have all walks of life training here, you will be fine"....So true. I felt so welcome that I regretted not signing up sooner. It wasn't long before normal life tasks started to become easier. (You'd be surprised how learning to do a side kick helps you to get into a pick up truck easier. I'll explain after class one day). Exercises can be modified or switched depending on anyone's situation. Beginners should not be intimidated, you work with other beginners until you are ready to advance. That being said, you will be pushed hard and get a great workout incorporating self defense, bodyweight exercises, sparring, heavy bag, pad work and weapon defense techniques. I can't say enough good things about this school, it is my second home. I can't live without it. Sign up. I'll see you in class. Dan

Expérience fantastique: Wow 47 years of pure excellence! My experience with Leo Wong's started with a 6 week women's boot camp a few years ago. I luckily made it through those 6 weeks with Raymond. I must tell you if you are not mentally and physically prepared to bring your A-game - forget it! Raymond is the toughest instructor around. He will push you past limits you had for yourself. Isn't that exactly what we want and need in an instructor? I had always thought about taking their Krav Maga classes but frankly was too chicken. I could only imagine the intensity Raymond would bring to such a training. It wasn't until a few years later that a traumatic event happened to me that I reached out without any hesitation (the very next day) to the only place and person I knew who could help me overcome such an event. I immediately enrolled as a member. The kindness and caring I received from them was extremely touching. I also witness this before and during every class, Raymond remembers any injury's you may have and is ready with tweaks so you don't hurt yourself. Don' waste anymore time thinking about it like I did, you need this skill in your life! This Krav Maga 3rd Dan Black Belt instructor will exceed your expectations and you will exceed your own in the process. Thank you so much Wong Family!!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been attending this school for over two years and I’ve been extremely satisfied with the quality of the training I’ve received. I study Krav Maga but the school also offers classes in Taekwondo. The lead instructor Raymond Wong is a 3rd-Degree Blackbelt Instructor in Krav Maga and a 3rd-Degree Blackbelt Instructor in Taekwondo. He is the top-ranked Krav Maga instructor in Canada and has been training Taekwondo under his father Leo Wong since he was a child. He has competed for over 20 years around Canada and the United States. He is a certified law enforcement trainer as well as a Krav Maga instructor trainer and certifier. The school has been running for over 47 years. Whatever can be said about the quality control across different Krav Maga schools, this school is the real deal. The school is always kept very clean. I attended class during Ontario’s Stage 3 lockdown and the staff was very strict about enforcing the rules and regulations imposed by the provincial government. Everything was constantly being cleaned and disinfected. Everyone always wears masks and practices social distancing and proper sanitation, even during training. The entire second floor is a large training room. The whole room is matted and contains many heavy punching bags and water bags for training, as well as a variety of other training tools including pads, medicine balls, etc. There is a mirrored wall at the back of the room. The room also contains a stereo and sound system sometimes used during training. Windows provide good airflow to the room. The floor and equipment are always kept very clean and constantly disinfected. Classes usually last around 45 minutes and begin with an energetic warmup based on fighting techniques, bodyweight exercises, and dynamic stretches. After warming up we transition into our main workout. Before COVID-19 we would develop our skills and techniques doing pad work with partners and then sometimes spar afterward, but since the pandemic started the workouts have been modified to allow for social-distancing. Although the training is hard, demanding, and as close to real fighting as possible, safety in training is always emphasized as the top priority. There is zero tolerance for a lack of concern for the safety of other members. Raymond does a great job at making sure everyone warms up properly and never pushes anyone beyond what they are able to do. He always encourages students to take care of themselves and provides alternative exercises if they are unable to perform an exercise. In this way, he is able to push his students to fulfill their potential but not push them beyond their limitations. Everyone is expected to perform, be a good training partner, and do their best, but not to be reckless or careless in training. There is a strong emphasis on practicality in training. There is nothing fancy or flashy about the techniques or the workouts. Krav Maga focuses on basic, fundamental self-defense techniques that are easy to apply in real-world situations. After training under Raymond at this school, not only do I feel prepared for a fight, but I know I am prepared and able to defend myself. Raymond is always sharing his wisdom and mindset with us to make us better fighters. I feel not so much that I’m learning Krav Maga but learning how to fight, and the difference between my skill level now and when I first started training is night and day. The culture and learning environment of the school is very inclusive, positive, and welcoming. There are people of all ages and abilities from different walks of life who train there. The Krav class includes teens and people in their 50s and 60s, along with many women as well. There is no “macho” atmosphere to the school. Everyone is humble, respectful, and willing to help each other learn. In conclusion, I would recommend this school to anyone with a desire to learn self-defense and better themselves. Studying martial arts here has been a wonderful experience and has had an extremely positive impact on my life. Hope to see you there!

Expérience fantastique: When I was young I was fortunate to have belonged to a track club that was run by a number of world class coaches. Many of my teammates went to the U.S on scholarships and some made it to the Olympics. 20+ years later I recognize the same Calibre of coaching at Leo Wong’s Tae Kwon Do and Krav Maga. If you want to learn self defence this is the place to go. If you just want to get in shape this is definitely the place to go. The idea of defending your self and your family taps into your primal fears and is a very powerful motivator. They are gifted trainers and instructors I highly recommend Leo Wong’s Tae Kwon Do and Krav Maga.

Expérience fantastique: Best school in the GTA! Great instructors and great students. More like a family than a school. Techniques taught here are 100% legit. Amazing school overall!

Expérience fantastique: I have enrolled all 3 of my children at Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do. They are very professional and family oriented. My children are 4, 5 and 6 years old and have all started at the age of 4. They are trained appropriately based on their skills, not age. I drive past many other Tae Kwon Do gyms on my way to Leo Wong's because they are dedicated, motivated, and particular about the skills my children have adapted. The precision and accuracy of each form my children learn amaze me and make me proud. I am glad we have found you and would highly recommend to anyone. Wouldn't take them anywhere else.! Keep up your awesome efforts the Wong family.

Expérience fantastique: very good and right approach to children, my daughter enjoys training. would highly recommend this place.

Expérience fantastique: Very well run family business. Excellent way to get in shape.

Expérience fantastique: Before coming here I took a few months of krav maga at another establishment. After transferring to the krav maga class here that is lead by Raymond. I immediately noticed the difference in intensity and professionalism. If you truly want to learn krav maga, there is no other place to go to.

Expérience fantastique: Great school! I participated in both their Boot Camp classes & Krav Maga program. By far some of the most intense workouts, yet most importantly learning valuable self defence techniques. Great for your self confidence and to help anyone who’s experienced trauma in their life to regain their inner and physical strength. Amazing staff who’s always there to help and that provides a sense of belonging to a family, not just a team. And Raymond will push you beyond limits that you never even knew you could push through! Just awesome!

Expérience fantastique: Love this school! A friend introduced me to the world of Krav Maga, and I'm very happy that she brought me to this place. Raymond is an excellent teacher who pushes you while also being accommodating. So far learning Krav Maga has been great with this family run business, and it's always good to see Evelyn behind the front desk!

Expérience fantastique: I started going to Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do & Krav Maga back in 2016 when I went to my first boot camp. I just finished my 4th boot camp with Raymond and he never disappoints. The boot camps he runs pushes me further than I could ever push myself and for that I am grateful. I lost pounds and inches but more importantly in that six weeks I gained self confidence, strength, mental clarity, energy and muscle, which to me is a bigger achievement than what the scales could ever tell me. Thanks for teaching me great training techniques and keeping me accountable.

Expérience fantastique: This is a great school. My son (5 years old) is in the tiny tigers program. Excellent instruction from Raymond. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to see their child gain focus, confidence and a greater physical ability. The school has been here for a long time. This experience is reflected in the instructional ability and quality of student output.

Expérience fantastique: Tiny Tigers & Krav Maga My son joined the Tiny Tigers program just under a year and a half ago at 4 years old. Watching him learn and grow in the Tiny Tigers has been amazing. He's learned so much. He has improved his balance, strength, agility and most importantly, his focus! Taekwondo has taught him discipline and respect. I've watched him grow from a shy, cautious kid into a confident leader, even at only five years old. Joining Krav Maga was the best thing I ever did. It has helped me learn to push myself both physically and mentally and step further outside of my comfort zone more regularly. Raymond is an incredible teacher, leader and motivator. I look forward to every class and even though I'm sometimes exhausted at the end of the class, I am immediately looking forward to the next one!

Expérience fantastique: I am honored to have joined the Krav Maga program at Leo Wong's. Raymond Wong cares deeply for his students but pushes them hard to be the best that they can be. I highly recommend you that you join our team!! It's never too late to start a new journey in your life!!

Expérience fantastique: We are so very happy our Daughter found this place and asked us to sign her up for Krav Maga. Right from the beginning it has been an awesome experience and an amazing atmosphere. Our Daughter has some social anxiety and was always worried her training partner may not show up but the students and the instructors are so amazing here that this is one place she shows up and is happy with no anxiety. It's one big family/team environment with everyone helping and pushing each other to be better. She always leaves happier than when she showed up. We have noticed a huge difference in her strength, stamina and agility in the short time she's been training here. Thank you so much to the Wong family, Master Raymond and Master Carl.

Expérience fantastique: My son started Tiny Tigers Tae Kwon Do at this gym when he was 4 years old. He has trouble focusing and remaining engaged on a normal day. After only a few months of classes, I can already see an improvement in his focus. He loves learning how to apply his strength in a controlled manner, while learning new moves and meeting new friends. The instructors and owners are so very welcoming and friendly and treat everyone like a part of the family. The gym, lobby and changerooms are also kept extremely clean, as well!!

Expérience fantastique: My son started training here at 4 years old and he loves it! It’s helped him develop his sense of discipline and respect. He’s also increased his physical strength and athleticism. I would highly recommend this facility. Their instructors are awesome and it is a family owned business which creates a very welcoming environment for those enrolling young kids.

Expérience fantastique: This place is awesome, started my kid here at 4 years old. Now he is 5 and loves going here. Now i have two of my kids here and the thrid one is definitely joining next year. The instructors here are A +++. The facility is very well kept, the staff is always welcoming and friendly and parents can watch their younger kids train which is amazing. My kids show these instructors a lot of respect and the instructors do not treat them like kids, and do not tolerate any nonsense in class which i like. The discipline is amazing and my sons confidence has grown since coming here. Thank you for the wonderful job. I cant say enough good stuff about them and we travel 20 min to get here but its completly worth it.

Expérience fantastique: Great place, awesome staff.

Expérience fantastique: Joining their Krav Maga program has been the best decision I have made so far. It's become the best outlet I have for my anxiety and stress levels, while being the most intense workout i've ever had. Raymond, his family, and staff do their very best to treat you like family and make you feel at home. The instructors strive for excellence in their teaching through practical techniques and drills. I'm proud to call myself a member of their school, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who has anxiety, or needs a boost in self confidence.

Expérience fantastique: Honestly, this place is the only place I can go to too feel happiness. Everything these people do are amazing. It gives you a super good workout to make you feel better about yourself and build your confidence and also mentally. Every time I show up there I leave with a smile no matter how bad my day was. The people are amazing. The work is amazing. I'd highly recommend Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do and Krav Maga classes.

Expérience fantastique: I was recommended here by a friend and really did not know what to expect. I was reluctant to join any Self defense class due to the in your face type of atmosphere. I never experienced this at Leo Tae Kwon Do the instructors are very respectful and extremely committed. The all around staff is welcoming and classes for Krav very practical. I would recommend anyone to join and benefit.

Expérience fantastique: This review is long overdue! I enrolled my son in Tae Kwon Do at Leo Wong’s 3 years ago. He had just turned 4 years old. He was a shy and anxious child which made me worry for his upcoming Junior Kindergarten enrolment. In a few short months of joining, we saw a noticeable change in our son. His confidence grew, he was no longer anxious to participate in group activities (I.e. T-ball league, playing with other kids at birthday parties etc.) and his first day of school was a breeze - he was social and made so many new friends. Fast forward 3 years and it is now my 4-year old daughter’s turn to follow in her brother’s footsteps as she begins her Tae Kwon Do journey. The owners and the instructors at Leo Wong’s are passionate about what they do and are 100% invested in seeing your child succeed - not only in Tae Kwon Do, but in their every day lives. They teach discipline, respect, self-regulation, self-defence, patience and focus. I would highly recommend Leo Wong’s to any parent or grandparent who is considering enrolling their child in Tae Kwon Do. It will be a worthy investment into your child’s future! A big thank you to the Wong family! Your hard work and care for these kids does not go unnoticed.

Expérience fantastique: Love this place for so many reasons. You are not a dollar sign, you're part of a group. They genuinely want you there, learning and participating even after you've paid your membership. You are never treated like a punching bag. They don't run the class on a punch clock. Start time is firm, but if there is something that needs to be taught and the class needs some extra time then that's what we get. Safety is continuously reinforced, and you are going to get a good workout. The material you will learn is real world applicable, real defense. Raymond is an awesome instructor, who keeps the lessons real, gets in the on the drills regularly and does the everything he asks the group to do (pushups and situps etc). Women are encouraged to join and are treated like everyone else. Oh, and this place is super clean. This may sound ridiculous, but it always smells clean, the floors are always clean, the mats are always clean. Finally, the equipments is quality and never in disrepair.

Expérience fantastique: Leo Wong’s Tae Kwon Do is an exceptional martial arts school in Durham Region! Our 3 children have been a part of the school for the last 5 years and we can’t say enough great things about Master Raymond and his staff. Raymond has been an exceptional influence with our children through the teaching of his craft alongside his fantastic team of instructors. We are very grateful to have found Leo Wong’s Tae Kwon Do and will continue to be customers and ambassadors of the business for many years to come!

Expérience fantastique: Excellent training, good workout, great students, best instructors, respectful environment. That's just some of the Pros, I tried hard to think of any cons, but couldn't - except there's no free beer

Expérience fantastique: We were looking for a martial arts school to enroll our daughters in and found this family run business a perfect fit. The Wong family are very kind and welcoming. In an under a year, the girls have progressed very well. The teachers have instilled discipline, focus and drive in our girls and they are always motivated to get to class. A great place for kids interested in learning Tae Kwon Do.

Expérience fantastique: Leo Wong’s Tae Kwon Do & Krav Maga is the best martial school ever. We are blessed to have Master Raymond Wong as our lead instructor. He has abundant knowledge and deep understanding of Krav Maga, and he is more than happy to share it with the students. Raymond has a lot of energy and it shows through the teaching consistency in every class. Every martial arts instructor should see how he runs the class! Most importantly, he teaches us to ALWAYS finish the fight, which can be implemented in every aspect of our life. If you want a real training, here is the place to go!

Expérience fantastique: There are so many good things to say about this studio, the instructors, and the students. I have been doing Tae Kwon Do for a substantial part of my life. Starting out I really enjoyed it and if I did not do Tae Kwon Do, I would probably be a very different person. Training at Leo Wong’s Tae Kwon Do has allowed me to learn valuable skills such as a great work ethic, always trying to improve self-discipline, courage, and the ability to stand up for myself and what I believe in. The instructors at the studio are all wonderful, they connect with the children, help them when they are in need, and make sure that the training environment is always safe. The instructors are there to help the students achieve their goal on becoming a Black Belt. I received my black belt on my 16th birthday, and I could not have been more proud of myself, because with all the training and help from the instructors, and through perseverance, I was able to achieve my goal. Now I plan on going for my second den in Tae Kwon Do. I am also a student in their Krav Maga program. I have learned many important defenses for the real world. In this program you are trained to deal with many different types of real world situations. You will feel better about yourself after doing this program. You will feel a lot stronger after each workout. I have been doing Krav Maga for over a year now, and I am always excited to see what drills we will be doing each day. I would like to personally extend a special thank you to Mrs. Evelyn Wong, for continuing to support my training even when things were tough. This establishment has had a very large impact on my life and I hope it does for you too.

Expérience fantastique: I have studied a few martial arts, but Krav Maga is by far the most straight forward and to the point. It is a great workout that keeps both your body and mind active. From the time I walked into Leo Wong's I felt welcomed and everyone is friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. Raymond is a great instructor that knows his trade better than any instructor I've had. He teaches a program that is progressive and easy for anybody to get better and better at over time. He keeps training interesting with different training techniques and exercises every class. All the instructors pay attention to the class and are very helpful in correcting mistakes and making sure everyone is learning the right way. Most importantly of all, they preach safety in training and taking care of the person you're working with. They help you work around injuries so you can still participate and learn. I recommend this school to anybody who wants to learn new skills and get some good conditioning at the same time from an instructor that actually knows what he's doing and can do everything he asks you to do.

Expérience fantastique: Joining Leo Wong 's Tae Kwon Do and Krav Maga school over a 3 years ago has been one of the best decisions I have taken in my life. Krav maga doesn't just provide the most intensive workout I have ever attended, it prepares you for the worst. The level of awareness I have gained from these classes have made me a much more prepared person. Now I feel much more secure when walking by myself and I feel that if I were to find myself in an unpleasant situation, I would have the tools that could make the difference between going home that night or not. Raymond is truly a great instructor and I couldn't have chosen a better place to learn self defense. Raymond keeps the class highly interactive and dynamic, while teaching you simple moves that anyone can use to defend themselves. I personally know of someone who has avoided being a victim of an attack by using the techniques taught here and that should make every member of this academy proud. Knowing that everything you have practiced in class can be implemented in real life makes you feel that with every lesson you attend, you're investing your time in improving yourself. Thank you Raymond, Evelyn and Leo for making me a more confident and prepared person. Look forward to the years to come :)

Expérience fantastique: There just simply is not the space to explain all that this club has been to me. For me it has been a life changer. It has instilled confidence in how I live my life. Learning from a true Krav Maga master I am doing things I never thought could be possible. One thing that strikes me is the team work we learn, depending on our partners to see us through a hard class, working hard but keeping each other safe, and watcing out for each other and sceeming to us to finish, never stop. We never leave anyone behind, we all finish. If I were to change anything? I would have started much earlyer in life. I now walk with pride knowing that I have been part of something that has made me a better person. I say thank you to all the staff at the school and to all the great freinds I have made along the way.

Expérience fantastique: I enrolled my son in this school and couldn’t be happier! Mrs. Wong took my phone call inquiring about the program and she is to thank for us enrolling in the program. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about tae kwon do, very inviting when choosing a school! It is a very positive atmosphere and all of the instructors truly care about their students. I am very impressed with the morales and values presented to the students and my son enjoys going to every class!

Expérience fantastique: I have been training at Leo Wong's Krav Maga School for 5 years now and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Raymond Wong is a first rate instructor and teaches techniques in easy to learn and remember steps. The work outs are a great way to stay in shape, and you learn excellent self defense skills as well. This is a well run family business and you couldn't find a nicer family than the Wongs.

Expérience fantastique: I originally joined to improve my overall physical strength and stamina. The fitness aspect and combination of learning self-defense techniques made sense logically and could help me in real life situations. We are coached by an outstanding intructor Raymond. He pushes you beyond your limits and helps you strive to be better. Not to mention your peers create a motivating atmosphere. Get ready to build confidence in yourself mentally and physically.

Expérience fantastique: I have been training here for 2 1/2 years. Originally, I signed up for a bootcamp class. I enjoyed it and signed up for Krav Maga. I am so grateful to have found this place and the people here. Mr. and Mrs. Wong are wonderful people and Raymond Wong is the absolute best instructor ever. Not only is he highest ranked in the country in Krav Maga, he is so good at teaching the discipline. Some people are really good at what they do but can't teach and some are really good at teaching even though they aren't the best in their field. Raymond is both. It isn't just changing my body, it's changing my mindset. I will happily continue to train here for years to come. I truly value my Krav Maga family.

Expérience fantastique: I joined Leo Wong’s Tae Kwon Do and Krav Maga School in September, 2018 and am I glad I did. Lead instructor Raymond Wong is a fantastic teacher and passionate at what he does. His method of instruction is hands on and he is very meticulous. He demands a lot from his students but with strict regard for safety. Raymond has a team of assistants that monitor and assist throughout all classes and they are very good at it! I joined Raymond’s 6 week bootcamp and was worked extremely hard. I’m ex-military and have to admit, this was up there with training I did years ago. Raymond pushed us to our limits and did all the drills along with us. He walks the talk! This is a family run business and you can tell they care deeply about all their students. They give feedback and positive reinforcement on a consistent basis. I highly recommend Leo Wong’s for anybody who is looking at getting in shape, improving their physical fitness, building confidence and having a very effective form of self defence in Krav Maga. My only regret is having not joined Leo Wong’s years ago, better late than never!! Not seeing a method to add a second review on Google, (or none that I can find anyway, lol), I just wanted to follow up on my first year completed with Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do & Krav Maga. Raymond and his team of instructors are second to none when it comes to professionalism and truly caring for their students success. Make no mistake, you will be pushed to your limit and beyond. However, this is what makes this school unique. You will train hard but with safety and technique always as priorities. As students of this school we are very fortunate to have Raymond as the lead instructor. He will push you hard, but this is what we/you want. To be good at something in life you have to work hard for it. This is so true of this form of self defence and how Raymond instructs his team. There are no shortcuts here. Follow directions and do what is asked of you and you will be amazed as to how you can perform both mentally and physically. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking at improving their physical and mental well-being along with a very proven form of self-defence. Raymond's Mom and Dad are always present at reception. They truly care about their students, always positive and very kind. It is very nice to see a business care about their clients as they do! The dojo is consistently very well maintained and clean. They have top quality equipment and is always in good repair. As a side note, even though the school is located on busy King Street in Oshawa, there is plenty of free parking directly behind the school situated off of Athol St. W. just West of Simcoe St. S. I am looking forward to continuing my journey with Leo Wong's!! Thank you for all you have done for me and the rest of your team!!

Expérience fantastique: Krav Maga is not a sport. It's an effective martial arts discipline that lacks the fancy choreography and complicated moves featured in other disciplines. It is tried and tested in real world situations- not just in a ring. Classes at Leo Wongs Tai Kwon Do are energetic and informative. Chief instructor- Raymond Wong- is committed to offering the best training available. No matter what level you are at, everyone trains hard. Students build confidence in themselves knowing that they can defend themselves in a variety of situations. If you are looking to learn an effective method of self defense, and to improve your fitness level, then consider Krav Maga Oshawa!

Expérience fantastique: Awesome experience. Raymond is an amazing teacher with a wealth of knowledge that is second to none. Having already experienced martial arts for more than 15 years it was interesting to experience a new form of self defense and learn how to incorporate new techniques. If you're looking to learn self defense and increase physical fitness then I would highly recommend Raymond and the team at Leo Wong's Krav Maga

Expérience fantastique: This school and the family who own it are exceptional. Raymond pushes you to your limit while always being diligent about safety and injury prevention. The classes are diverse and challenging; there’s something for everyone no matter your skill level. The passion and dedication of the family is what keeps me coming back year after year. I honestly can’t say enough good things about Leo Wong’s, do yourself the biggest favour and inquire about training here, you won’t regret it!

Expérience fantastique: Leo Wong's Tae Kwon Do and Krav Maga is the best place to learn valuable and realistic self defense techniques for anyone of any age. I have been a student now for 9 years training in both Tae Kwon Do and Krav Maga. This club is very welcoming, the instructors and other students are very nice. Everyone is one big family. Raymond and the other instructors take a great passion in teaching their students to give them the best experience possible. Every class is different and a great workout. Thanks to everyone there for making these years (and many more to come) so enjoyable.

Expérience fantastique: Love the school, love the instructors. The training is hard but rewarding! If you stick it out and work hard, you move up and learn the real life saving stuff in the advanced class. Honored to train with police officers and other professionals that know the real life applications of this stuff. No regrets!

Expérience fantastique: I started training this year at Leo Wong's and it's one of the best decisions I have made. I couldn't decide where to start training and did my research for places so when I decided to contact Leo Wong's TKD & Krav Maga school, my inquiry for further information was responded to quickly and efficiently. Evelyn is great at answering any questions and even took the time to offer to meet with me off hours due to my tight schedule. This not only made my decision easier but solidifed my decision which I couldn't be happier about it. Raymond is a great instructor who takes training seriously with an exceptionally high regard for safety which is of the utmost importance. Raymond and his team of trainers are highly skilled and really helpful to ensure techniques are being used effectively while also considering the individual needs. They take the time to ensure you have proper form to perform techniques while ensuring safety to avoid any injuries. I am enjoying learning new skills that not only will come in handy in dangerous situatuons to protect myself but it encompass a great attitude of respect, tolerance and patience. And to top it all off, it provides a great workout! I am looking forward to continue training with Leo Wong's TKD & Krav Maga for as long as I can. Thank you for giving me insights to a whole new world of self defense.

Expérience fantastique: Leo Wong's TKD and Krav Maga....what can I say except this is the best martial arts school in the country. I had taken the time to read all the reviews before deciding on writing my own regarding the training I have received at Leo Wong's TKD and Krav Maga with Raymond Wong. One review bothered me when someone said they don't do nay real fighting etc. This person obviously has to common sense as you would NEVER put a civilian to train at first with the Navy seals. Would you? You would get your A** Handed to you... Raymonds approach to his all of his level one students is to focus and MASTER the basic fundamentals first. You need to crawl before you walk and walk before you run...right .... Raymond is a very strict work hard no excuses type of individual and pushes you to new limits every class. Even though all the students in the level one class is ranked all the same he teaches us to respect our partner with safety in mind but to train like our life is in danger. I decided to join Leo Wong's TKD and Krav Maga because I have 2 beautiful girls and a loving wife. With all the bad in the world i wanted to have the best training I would get for real life situations that may occur to protect myself and my family. I have been training with Raymond for almost a year and it has been the best experience I've had. Raymond will never promote you to the next level if you are not ready for it unlike other schools that will give you your next belt bc they need the fees or YOU FEEL you deserve it. You have to EARN your stripes and this is probably why Leo Wong's TKD and Krav Maga is rated as one of the best in the country. It is an absolute pleasure to work and train under Raymond Wong. If you are looking for a martial arts school that will teach you properly and push you to achieve and surpass your goals then I would highly recommend Leo Wong's TKD and Krav Maga in Oshawa to take care of you. I want to thank Master Leo,Evelyn, Raymond and the other trainers for all they have done in making me physically and mentally tougher for the real world. All the best for the future and look forward to many years of training at this amazing school. Sean D.

Expérience fantastique: Great atmosphere and people all around, I have been with them for quite a while and they won't disappoint. They will push you to you max and even then some!

Expérience fantastique: This place is legit! Run by a family who's dedication and passion for teaching the art of Tae kwon Do is unmatched. My son has been training at this school since he was 5 years old (he's 9 now) and I have no doubt that his confidence and discipline is attributed to his time a Leo Wong's. Went to a few other places before we luckily found this place. If you are having second thoughts about your son/daughter joining, drop by and watch a few classes, within minutes you'll see the difference in quality between Leo Wong's and other local programs.

Expérience fantastique: Leo Wong's is a very friendly, professionally run, family operated club. The club is very clean, and the classes are fast paced and challenging. It's the best workout I've had in martial arts.

Expérience fantastique: I have been a student of this school for 14 years. It's my second home and Ray is like a brother to me. If you really want the best and most realistic self defense training, this is the school for you. Having the highest standards and quality instructors is key, Raymond is the highest rated Krav Maga world wide 3rd Dan black belt in Canada and his teaching and instruction definitely show it. Very proud to be a student here but more importantly very happy to be a part of this family. Thank you, Raymond, Leo and Evelyn for the years of tremendous training and amazing atmosphere. ☝️

Expérience fantastique: So many good things to say about this school. Lead instructor Raymond truly has a deep understanding of Krav Maga and displays the highest quality of skill & instruction that is well used in real life situations. He is a master in teaching different age groups and skill levels, while helping you grow and realize your potential and lets you go at your own pace with high regard to prevent injury. The values and good character he instills in his students is what makes him authentic, genuine and well respected. Training with Raymond has blessed me with the knowledge of life skills to keep me safe & a positive mental attitude that can never be taken away from me. Also headed by Leo & Evelyn - who are exceptional at what they do, this school is truly special as it has a positive atmosphere where everyone is treated like family.

Expérience négative: Absolutely horrible experience I talked to the lady over the phone I'm a single father and I wanted to see how much it cost to be able to get my two daughters into their classes the lady told me it's $1,500 up front for the year no payments I could start giving the money and once I was able to get to the $1,500 Mark then my one daughter could start taking classes. Complete rip-off not only do they not accommodate single parents on a budget the lady was just extremely rude and once she found out I couldn't afford to pay $1,500 she hung up on me. I guess this place is only for rich people and not for the average person making under 50 Grand a year

Expérience fantastique: Not only a great family owned establishment but the best martial arts school I have ever been to.

Expérience fantastique: Young or old, Leo Wong’s Tae Kwon-Do / Krav Maga is one of the best martial arts school to join in all of Ontario. I have been at Leo Wong's since 1995. The instructors and members at the martial arts school are very supportive that they treat you like family to a point where you don't want the class to end.

Expérience fantastique: Great martial arts school!

Expérience fantastique: Fantastic atmosphere. Motivating and experienced instructors!!

Expérience fantastique: Currently in the Bootcamp for Women. I love it. I work hard every single class, and have already signed up for Krav Maga in October. I have a lot of respect for the instructors, Especially Raymond Wong and for Mrs. Evelyn Wong who handles the administration with professionalism and respect. My Son is currently a Camo belt but started 3 years ago in Tiny Tigers. My husband has recently passed his Krav Lv 2 and enjoys it immensely. It has even cone in handy in real life situations he's encountered. And next September my daughter will start her path in Tiny Tigers as well. Highly recommended!

Expérience fantastique: I generally do not write reviews but in this case, I had to write one for Leo Wong’s Krav Maga Worldwide School. I chose Leo Wong’s school because I’ve always had an interest in Krav Maga. Also, I was looking for a way to be active and get back in shape. Having an athletic background for over 20 years and training my body to be ready for the physical requirements of “organized sport”, I was looking to fill the void. Leo Wong’s Krav Maga Worldwide has filled this void. Leo Wong operates the only real Krav Maga Worldwide School in Canada! Excellence can only be measured by comparisons & nothing compares to Leo Wong’s Krav Maga Worldwide training. I have been training with Leo Wong’s Krav Maga program for the past 6 months. The lead trainer Raymond Wong is very detailed and highly skilled. The training is a challenging & rewarding experience. He ensures that students understand & focus on the fundamentals of Krav Maga in order to lay the foundation for their future growth. It’s a great atmosphere and the training is AWESOME. There is great diversity as students are of all ages & comes from all walks of life. It is surprising to see that half the class are women. Everything you learn is practical and designed for self-defense combat in the modern world. The training simulations techniques I’ve learned are invaluable. It’s not easy; you must be mentality prepared to work HARD! It will be the best workout of your life, hands down. It’s a phenomenal workout every single class, men & women work together, have fun, while getting in shape & learning valuable self-defense skills. Don’t miss the opportunity to train with the best! The instructors Raymond, Carl, Jason, and apprentices are fantastic. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend trying out a class.

Expérience fantastique: The Krav Maga class is learning great self defence in a high energy workout! Highly recommended!

Expérience fantastique: Great school! Very caring! Their tiny tigers program is exceptional and the Krav Maga for the adults is top notch. Would recommend to anyone looking!

Expérience positive: I took Krav Maga, it was ok. There weren't any clear levels so it was difficult to know where you were in the ranks.

Expérience fantastique: A great martial arts school! I've been training here in Krav Maga for over a year, and have learned a lot of practical self defence. The instructors know what they're doing, and the classes are always exciting and challenging.

Expérience positive: What you can expect is a good conditioning workout, rather unrealistic basic defence, and basic striking. This is not hardcore military style Krav Maga. This is a watered down civilian version. You will be training with women, kids, and grown men. To accommodate everyone, it has been watered down. You'll find few women/kids willing to train with a 7kV shock knife. Very little actual combat, mostly smashing pads. Some of the better clubs you actually defend against a knife attack, you are fighting for your life, full aggression against a guy in protective gear. You will not get that here, you will go through a scripted rehearsed basic technique with no actual experience fighting or them resisting. Also, you will pay $49 for the 'seminar'. The staff are good, place is clean, but this isn't real military training.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing family establishment with world leading coaching techniques. A great place to learn confidence and general self defense.
