Very great vibes and super welcoming! I'm a 3 month in white belt and a member at Toronto Bjj, and…read morewanted to get some training in while visiting family in the area. Found you guys by looking up the affiliated gyms from the Jiu Jitsu for Life Team. The culture was great, with lots of quality instruction and I really appreciated all the higher belts taking time to explain small details and it seems like they genuinely care for your development (especially as a first time visiting practitioner). I loved the hour of rolling and open training to just get lots of rounds afterwards. We worked on sequencing arm bar from closed guard today as well as defending the position from the stack counter. Definitely a really great detail to pick up and to try to incorporate in my own game and development. Hope to visit more often!

I'm very disappointed at the way they operate at this facility, when I signed up I purchased all…read morethe uniforms and without hesitation got the most complete membership they offer. Turns out the schedule they give you and the schedule posted online is barely followed. I was paying 68 biweekly to train alone basically expecting there would be a class but wasn't. Most ethical gyms understand when a member has to move 80kms away that they cannot train anymore and cancel their membership so long the member can provide proof that they moved. At matador they will send a collection agency that has lots of complaints for harassment after you with an inflated number and threats to take legal action. I am reviewing this matter and will figure out a way to settle this. But I will use every platform I can to share my experience. I should ask for my money back for having to workout alone because the scheduled given wasnt followed. The more the collection company harasses me the more I will expose it. Would never recommend this place, maybe the instructors but not the business itself.
