My son had a Ninja Birthday party at Winning Circle a few months ago and the kids had a fantastic time! My son and I also recently started taking classes here, and I have been very impressed with the professionalism and knowledge of the instructors. Perhaps even more importantly, I have noticed the dedication that Master Elamam has for his students. These classes have helped my son to focus and work hard towards a goal, plus he comes home with a big smile on his face! I believe that Taekwondo at Winning Circle will help him to respect others, build confidence, and succeed in multiple areas of life. We highly recommend!

“Before finding an After School Program for my 2 kids, i spent a great deal of time researching for the right place in Kanata. From the moment we walked in, we knew Winning Circle was different. The instructors were very welcoming, the facility was clean and spacious, there were smiling kids everywhere having fun and their program was very structured. Both my wife and I felt a very strong family oriented atmosphere and were comfortable right away. This is their 3rd year in the After School Program and both the kids love it. I would highly recommend Winning Circle to any family in Kanata. It’s definitely the place to be.”

“Both of my kids Emma (11 yrs) and Jacob (8 yrs) have been enrolled in the Winning Circle Martial Arts Program for the past 4 years. Ever since they started Tae Kwon Do i have seen a huge developmental change both mentally and physically with them. They are doing great at school, their attention span has tremendously improve and they have much more confidence in themselves . The kids love their classes and cant wait to get there every week. It’s the best thing i did for my children.”
