Desantos Martial Arts
Whether you're 3 or 73 (or anywhere in between) looking for fitness, fun, discipline, or self-defence, we have a spot for you at DeSantos Premier Martial Arts! All instructors at DeSantos Premier Martial Arts are students of our grandmaster, "Kwan Jan Nim" Veronica De Santos. Our instructors are caring, motivating, and feel deeply invested in the success and empowerment of our students.

With two convenient locations in Toronto's east end, we know you'll find a place with us where you can belong. We also know that children at this age learn by doing and the martial arts skills we teach in this program are not taught with mastery in mind. We are simply refining their gross motor skills.
Services
Founder and Grandmaster Veronica De Santos is a 7th-degree Black Belt who has been teaching martial arts for three decades. Through her hard work, experience, and all that she has given back to the martial arts community, she has earned the title of Kwan Jan Nim - a Korean term which means Master Instructor or Master of one's house.

I’ve been going there for almost 5 whole years now and the whole time I’ve thought of Desantos as a family away from home. This is the place to be as I’m going for my black belt soon and the whole time I think greatly of this establishment.

I went here for years, loved it. Great for birthday parties, bonding. They’re like a little family in there and will be happy to take you in.

This is the place to be. Took me a while to decide where I wanted to learn Martial Arts, but after a few trial classes it was clear that I'd found the one. I've been attending for 3 months now, going at least twice a week, sometimes more. The staff are very welcoming and engaging. Having never taken a class before, I was able to jump in with higher belts who are committed to helping each other improve while also getting individualized training as per my abilities and experience. Highly recommend.

De Santos is the best martial arts school! The staff and instructors are all qualified, professional, friendly, inclusive and supportive. They have multiple classes throughout the week for each belt level, making it easy to commit to the program.
Several of our family and friends have all joined after hearing our positive reviews. These aren’t just… classes for learning cool martial arts moves and self defence - De Santos teaches you a way of living life to your best possible capacity, meeting the world with strength, courage, and integrity. We love De Santos! Go check them out! &
