Watch Your Child Build Strength—Inside and Out!
Muay Thai teaches kids the value of listening, learning, and following through. Through structured training, they develop self-discipline that carries over into school, home, and everyday life.
Every class challenges kids to stay engaged, follow instructions, and refine their technique. This improved focus translates to better concentration in the classroom and beyond.
Learning new skills and overcoming challenges builds self-belief. With every punch, kick, and combination, kids gain the confidence to step outside their comfort zone and take on new challenges.
Every Class Helps Your Child Grow Stronger—Mind and Body!
Kids learn fast, and Muay Thai gives them the perfect outlet to channel their energy in a positive way. Even after just one class, parents notice improvements in focus, coordination, and confidence. With every session, they build on their skills, becoming stronger and more disciplined.
At 10th Planet Etobicoke, we go beyond teaching punches and kicks. Our program helps kids develop respect, perseverance, and self-control—qualities that shape them inside and outside the gym. When you enroll your child in our Youth Muay Thai program, you’re giving them the tools to succeed in all areas of life.

How 10th Planet Etobicoke’s Youth Muay Thai (6-9) Stands Out

Building Strong Values Through Muay Thai
In today’s world, kids face more than just peer pressure—they’re constantly exposed to online influences that can shape their attitudes and behavior. Giving them a positive, structured environment is more important than ever.
At 10th Planet Etobicoke, we do more than teach Muay Thai—we help build character. Through expert coaching, hands-on learning, and teamwork, kids develop respect, perseverance, and confidence. Every class reinforces discipline, goal-setting, and leadership, setting them up for success both on and off the mats.
With the right role models and a supportive community, your child will grow into a strong, focused, and well-rounded individual.
Keeping Fitness Fun and Engaging
Let’s face it—between processed foods, screen time, and less outdoor play, kids today aren’t moving as much as they should. Staying active isn’t just about burning energy; it’s about building healthy habits that last a lifetime.
Our Youth Muay Thai classes make fitness exciting! Each session is packed with high-energy drills, interactive games, and skill-building exercises that keep kids engaged without feeling like a workout. While they’re having fun kicking, punching, and moving, they’re also improving coordination, strength, and endurance.
Beyond just getting a great workout, kids develop a love for movement, setting them up for a healthier and more active future. At 10th Planet Etobicoke, fitness isn’t a chore—it’s something they’ll look forward to every week!
Practical Self-Defense for Real-Life Situations
No parent wants their child to face danger, but giving them the tools to protect themselves is essential. Whether it’s handling bullies at school or staying safe in unfamiliar situations, confidence in self-defense can make all the difference.
At 10th Planet Etobicoke, we take self-protection seriously. Our Youth Muay Thai program teaches kids practical techniques to defend themselves while also reinforcing awareness, assertiveness, and smart decision-making. They’ll learn how to handle physical confrontations effectively—while also developing the confidence and self-discipline to avoid conflict whenever possible.
Knowing when to stand their ground and when to walk away is just as important as the techniques they learn. With the right skills and mindset, your child will feel safer, more secure, and ready to take on the world with confidence.
Where Learning and Laughter Go Hand in Hand
We get it—kids learn best when they’re having fun! That’s why every class at 10th Planet Etobicoke is designed to keep young students active, engaged, and excited to come back for more.
Our Youth Muay Thai program blends skill-building with fast-paced games, creative drills, and high-energy challenges that make every session an adventure. While they’re kicking, punching, and moving, they’re also developing discipline, respect, and focus—without even realizing it.
Beyond the fun and fitness, our gym is a welcoming space where kids make real friendships and become part of a positive, supportive community. Whether they’re learning new techniques or sharing a laugh with teammates, every class is a chance to grow, connect, and enjoy the journey.
Real Experiences from Our 10th Planet Etobicoke Community
See why families love our Youth Muay Thai program! These are real stories from parents and students who have experienced the positive impact of our training. From building confidence to developing discipline, our community shares how 10th Planet Etobicoke is helping kids grow—on and off the mats.
This place is my go-to for my fitness and to surround myself with a full room of like-minded and dedicated people. I first started in a women’s group but I ended up joining the beginners for both genders and I appreciate how safe, respectful, and inclusive everyone is. And learning self defence is so fun and empowering
We started our son about 10 months ago and we have had the most wonderful experience there. He does both jiu jitsu and Muay Thai there. He started the gym as a very shy and sensitive little guy and now he is outgoing and very confident. Coaches Mike, Johnny and Quincy are absolutely amazing. He loves going there 6 times a week. We ended up also signing up for the adult classes ourselves. I hadn’t exercised in 8 years and coach Quincy took me under her wing and I fell in love with Muay Thai. It has turned into my favourite part of the day and I’ve made friends along the way as a bonus. I look forward to every class now. I’ve seen my own progress and it motivates me to keep going. I absolutely love this gym.
This place has become like a second home for my entire household. I started trying out something more physical (As a mid-30s desk jockey) and now both my kids and even my wife are loving both the classes and the community you'll find here.
The benefits you get from training here ripple throughout your life.
The Staff go out of the way to try and make this place great.
Highly recommend making this gym part of your life.
I am from another city and I was down for a few days. I had a very good experience people were great.
MICAH was good to explain, very detail oriented. We did lots of drilling for the first part of the class and for the second part we did lots of rolling. The gym, and the changing room was very clean.
I would definitely recommend this gym to everyone.
10P/EMA is amazing! It’s become a complete family affair as my kids, husband and myself are all taking classes. The staff and coaches are friendly and knowledgeable and have built a strong community in the gym. It’s been great to see our boys develop and progress in both BJJ and Muay Thai in just a few months.
For any females shy but interested to try out a martial arts class, I highly recommend the women’s Muay Thai class taught by Coach Quincy. She is highly skilled, patient and keeps every class fun and encouraging. We’re constantly learning new skills and techniques and we have a wonderful group of women who lift each other up and support each other’s development.
Anyone looking to try or get back in to martial arts should definitely come to 10P/EMA!
