I’ve been training with Sensei Gregg Skoryk for just over 20 years now. Initially, martial arts was just something to do, to keep me moving and energized. Years later now, it’s turned into a life journey of unexpected experiences and friends. Martial arts, it turns out, is so much more than simply defending yourself. It teaches you about yourself, about life and how to use what you have learned daily within your family, work, everywhere. This realization would never have been possible without Sensei Skoryk who has dedicated his life to the art. He’s so humble and yet so skilled, wise and experienced. He’s always pushing each one to greater heights. He’s everything you would want in an instructor, not to mention all the great people who attend this space. From children to adults, there is something to be learned and gained for each one. If you or your children have ever thought about a journey into martial arts, I feel that this is the place you would want to be.
My Wife and I have been training with Sensei Skoryk for over 20 years now in the Tai Chi Program and I have been training in the Karate Program for 25 years. You will not find a better Martial Arts Instructor and School in the KW area.
I started my training with Sensei Skoryk in 2008. After achieving my blackbelt, due work and life obligations I had to move away. Honestly there is not a day that goes by I do not think of this dojo, Sensei Skoryk and my peers. Everyone at the dojo was patient, positive and great to work with. No other dojo or teacher since has been a match. Sensei Skoryk has a way of explaining all the concepts and philosophies that only makes sense and complete understanding. He is patient, kind and will always be my sensei. I highly recommend this dojo and Sensei Skoryk!
I have trained in a number of different martial arts at several dojos throughout Ontario. However, on discovering Classical Martial Arts Centre in 2006 I have been training nearly exclusively here ever since. More recently two of my children started training here and the change in their physical and mental wellbeing as a result of training has been tremendous. The dojo is well laid out, comfortable and welcoming. The training programs which are centered around Goju Ryu Karate, Kobudo or Tai Chi but bring in numerous other martial arts and styles complementing one another. As a result every class is different and you are always learning something new or improving upon your techniques. The training is suitable for all levels of fitness and interests, from the beginner to the experienced. Sensei Skoryk is very knowledgeable in martial arts having taught for decades, is an inspirational teacher and true martial arts professional. Highly recommend checking out this place if you are considering training yourself or for your children.
I highly recommend this Dojo to anyone seeking a traditional and comprehensive Martial Arts experience. Since 2015 I have been a student of Sensei Skoryk and I have always been impressed by his depth of knowledge and his patient and skilful ability to transfer that knowledge. Sensei works with students ranging from children to seniors, from all backgrounds and physical abilities. Anyone looking to take control of their health and emotional well-being will be satisfied with the training at Classical Martial Arts Centre.
