I have met 4 of their boxing coaches each of them is knowledgeable and encouraging. The gym has a great vibe everyone is super friendly and helpful. I find the 60 minute classes give me an amazing work out plus introduction to techniques. I love the flat fee which allows you to attend as many classes as you like or just use the facilities to do your own work out. I have also tried the yoga class which has an excellent instructor. Wish I had joined much earlier! Oh and I am pleased with the personal results.

I feel incredibly lucky to be part of DMTK and cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Because of the unprofessional coach and environment we decided to cancel our month to month…read moresubscription that we paid extra for. The cancellation process was very difficult and the owners were very rude throughout it. There was no one there to help us and even after we sent the cancellation email, they still charged us. We disputed the charge and a month later they cancel the dispute, and recharge me. When I asked for my contract they showed me a photo of it on small phone with crossed out black highlights over much of the writing. They were very rude and insulting throughout this process and I have been scammed. I will never recommend this company to anyone, they act like thieves when it comes to money.

I have trained in over 8 different gyms around the world (US, Canada, Brazil) and I have to say…read morethat Lin MMA is probably in my top 2. Probably top BJJ school on my list but not top MMA school. In my opinion, the BJJ here is top notch and the instructors are fantastic. They have a game plan scheduled out for the entire year and the drills and techniques are done so that you can learn and get a great understanding and grasp of the moves. Professor Lin is a black belt BJJ artist who is easy to get along with and holds the respect of the entire class. The instructors are top notch and champions. The decor of the gym is more BJJ oriented. There are 3 big areas for classes along with heavy bags along the edges for the Muay Thai/Kick Boxing classes. There is also a small gym with free weights. Everybody who trains here are extremely respectful of you and if you are a beginner, you won't get thrown to the wolves like some of the other gyms that I've trained at. As a beginner, you will get brought along slowly until you have enough understanding to defend yourself against more advanced guys. There are beginner and more advanced classes. The new guys to this sport will be placed in the beginner classes before graduating to the more advanced classes. They are open on Saturdays which is a great thing because I like to train as often as possible. If you do end up getting hurt, there is an incident report that they file for their records. I ended up tearing the meniscus in my right knee while rolling so that pretty much ended my training here because I was sent back to Brazil for work so am training in Brazil now. Price-wise, this is a little more expensive than what I usually pay (compared to US prices because in Brazil, I pay pretty much next to nothing). I was only signed up for 3 months because I was on vacation during this time and wanted to continue training but as a monthly fee, it was a little pricier than what I had wanted to pay. However, I definitely have to say that I got more out of training here than I ended up paying for so that is a plus! Now, I have trained at Rev MMA and I have to say that the BJJ at Lin MMA is significantly better. The guys at Rev are less respectful of you and will go all out on rookies. Also, Lin MMA is cheaper!! Rev MMA is associated with Carlos Newton which is probably why they say they can jack up the prices. I have only trained at these two gyms in Toronto but can say that Lin MMA is probably the best in Toronto. Thank you Professor Lin and all of the coaches. If I am ever back in town for an extended period, I will be coming back to continue training after my knee heals up.
