Tina Takashi’s Dojo is the real deal. Ottawa hit the jackpot with this family bringing top-notch martial arts training for both kids and adults. No further explanation needed—just look them up, and you’ll see exactly what I mean. Trust me, you’ll be lining up for Tina and her family’s autographs! 😏

I quit martial arts 15 years ago and knew the family a bit. Signed up our daughter last year, and after watching her do it for a month, I thought, “Yeah, I could do this again,” and signed up myself. Great place, great people, top-notch instruction, would recommend for anyone interested in learning martial arts, it’s never too late to start! Now, if only these old bones could stop hurting…

I recently joined Tina Takahashi Martial Arts and am beyond impressed! The instructors are not only skilled but also incredibly patient and motivating. The class options are diverse, ranging from Judo and Jiu Jitsu to Muay Thai, which keeps things interesting and challenging. I love the welcoming atmosphere—it’s a great place for anyone, regardless of experience level. Plus, the focus on discipline and personal growth has positively impacted my confidence and fitness. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to start or advance their martial arts journey.

We are so happy to have found the best martial arts school for our son. From the beginning they made everything very easy transition and accessible. The instructors are top masters of the arts and we would not want our son to learn from no other. The family oriented environment is so welcoming and the base of teaching is designated to grow with your child. Our son improved his listening skills, obedience, help at home and gained a lot of confidence. Thank you sensei for this great opportunity!

Unbelievable experience. We have had such an amazing time at this dojo. My children love every minute of it. They are listening so much more at home and are more confident and in better shape. I highly recommend going and if you want to try it out… Do a birthday party here like we did and see how amazing it is.

I met Tina and Sean at a Judo Canada Event and it was amazing getting to work with them. The Takahashi Family’s textbook “Mastering Judo” was instrumental in me obtaining my Shodan. I used it as much if not more than the Kodokan Judo textbook. I even went as far as importing a copy from the UK as I couldn’t get a print copy in North America. It was a honour to get Tina to sign my copy and I will treasure it forever. If you ever get the chance to train at the Tina Takahashi Dojo I would HIGHLY recommend you do!

Went through the 2 week trial, and if you’re serious about martial arts, there is no other place to look. Instructors are world class, as are the owners. Every style they teach is covered extensively, clearly, and efficiently. This is not just a gym; it’s a school, it’s a place to better your physical, and mental state. Do not come here if you plan on wasting time, they take their craft very seriously, and if you put your 100%, they will give you theirs. Never have I been to such a quality driven dojo, and we are lucky to have a place such as this one in Ottawa.

This is the best school I’ve ever seen in Canada. Those who write negative review weather lie or couldn’t handle intense training programs. This is the school for those who wants to achieve high goals and really see the result not just training for fitness purposes. I highly recommend this school for everyone who’s serious about sports and not doing this for fun.

I would like to thank you for the incredible level of hospitality. After being there only twice it already feels familiar and comfortable. My kid and I both left with a feeling of gratitude. I’ve always wondered how can you tell if a training centre or dojo is more than likely a serious reputable place, and right fit. It has dawned upon me. Is it a place that says practice if you can or is it a take it home with you or you go home place. I left feeling the latter. Love it.
