Adult Programs

"I love a man who smiles when he fights." - Winston Churchill

Do you think your girlfriend or your wife feels confident at night walking down an alley arm in arm with you?
When you're out in public, do you find yourself wondering what you would do in an unexpectedly heated situation?
Wish you could finally get a six pack without having to grind your way through boring machines at the gym?

Most of us will never be in an Ultimate Fighting Championship or have to face someone who has left us no other option but a physical confrontation. And most of us can't count every calorie we ingest and take supplements we can't pronounce. But everyone has felt afraid, unsure, and perhaps even weak at some point. Whether it's in traffic, in the street, a nightclub, or even at home, most people have uncertainties about their ability to properly handle themselves in confrontational situations.

Let’s face it, we’ve all felt that way before.

Some bullies don't care about the ramifications of their actions. And some people simply get off on beating up on your sense of self.

At Revolution, it doesn't take long to develop the necessary tools to feel more confident, more self-assured, or to be stronger, fitter and tougher.

And it most definitely beats going to the gym three times a week and plodding along on a treadmill for 45 minutes staring at red dots. At Revolution, our adult programs are geared towards either a) being able to truly defend yourself in a physical confrontation, and/or b) getting into the best shape of your life. We have no interest in boring patterned movements, breaking useless boards, and earning meaningless black belts. We want to help make you get stronger, physically and mentally, as well as more confident while having fun, relieving stress and forming real friendships with quality people.

At the same time if you’re looking for an escape from your day, then stop by for a bit. Try thinking about work, family problems or school issues when you're in class--it’s practically impossible once you step on the mat.

We're not saying you're ever going to have to use anything you learn here, but wouldn't it be nice to know you had the skills just in case?

Let’s face it—you never really know, do you?

You've probably wanted to do this for some time now, so what are you waiting for? What’s holding you back this time?

Looking to finally change your life? Is it time for a revolution? Some people make excuses, others make it to class.

Which one are you?

Testimonials

"My athletic training has spanned more than 35 years. Never have I experienced a more qualified, thoughtful or demanding instructor. Joel is the consumate teacher because he is the consumate student of his craft. At Revolution, Joel creates an environment that will take you to the outer limits of your abilities. These limits are where we test our true nature and give us the confidence to take on life's most difficult challenges."
- Bill Sodomsky, 52, Thornhill

"Jiu Jitsu Classes with Joel Gerson are fun, educational and great workouts. Mr Gerson's teaching skills are superb. He has an amazing ability to explain and demonstrate the techniques in a way that is clear and exact. He is the real deal!"
- Al Green, The Sports Clubs of Canada, Group Fitness Director, Founder of downtown's Toronto's famous Body Alive Studios.

"I'm 37 years, university educated, a married father of two young children, a business owner, a musician, and I'm a Mixed Martial Artist. I've been training with Joel Gerson for over two years and I would unequivocally recommend Revolution MMA for anyone looking to improve their fitness, ability to defend themselves or looking for stress-release. I have belonged to health clubs, continue to play ice-hockey, but I have not found anything that remotely comes close tomatching the physical and mental workouts of jiu jitsu and kick-boxing. The members of Revolution are extremely congenial, without attitude and everyone works together to improve their respective skills."
- Mark Brunswick, Big Advertising Inc, Partner

Whether you’re looking at learning a new skill set or improving your level of fitness, Revolution Mixed Martial Arts and Fight Superstore is the right choice.  All of the instructors and students are extremely friendly and the encouragement you receive from both will motivate you to new levels!  Joel and Hovig are both excellent instructors who are able to encourage the beginner to learn the basics and ensure that more experienced students are challenged as well.   - Dan H.

...I took private Jujitsu classes with you about 3 years ago before leaving to Denver. I just wanted to say thank you for the precise instruction you gave me. Even today, after training with Brad Gumm(UFC) and Duane Ludwig(UFC), I find the details I learned with you on the basic foundations of grappling still serve me very well. It really is the reason why my armbar is now virtually inescapable, and I win most of my fights with the variety of chokes I first learned with you. These days I'm still working on my blue belt under Dave Ruiz(Machado Gold Medalist) and Brad Gumm. I still cant believe that this incredible journey all started with 10 privates at the Samurai Club. Thank you once again and best of luck in your teaching and career." - Fuad Abasi

"Feeling uninformed and untrained in grappling, Joel showed me the basics and together we built a strong foundation. This allowed me to feel ALOT more confident about the sport. Having a karate background made me realize how useless my skills were if I ended up on the ground. The problem is, most fights end up on the ground! Joel has provided me with knowledge and another set of skills so that I could be competitive and finish the fight. He is passionate about his sport and his passion rubs off on you as a student...I love it! Thanks Joel!"
- Dr. Perry Lichtblau

"Joel has helped me become a much more well-rounded martial artist. His extraordinary knowledge of techniques is matched by his ability to teach them. Anyone wanting to learn about the full spectrum of martial arts and self defence should take the time to train with Joel."
- Shannon Drown, Black Belt in Kempo Karate, Kickboxing Instructor

"We just wanted to take this opportunity to say how gratifying it was to work with you in the self defense course. There are so many unsavory situations one might find one’s self in these days that it seemed like agreat idea to learn how to respond to the crisis situations. We all found the course both enlightening and confidence building. The instruction was very adapted and many aspects of it related directly to our current employment. The statistics are scary; one in three women and one in eight men will be violently attacked, raped, or sexually abused in their lifetime. Thank you, Joel for giving all of us the courage and know-how on how to protect our well beings. There are really no words that can express the thanks we owe you, not only for ourselves but from our friends and loved ones who can now rest a little easier knowing we are prepared if evera dangerous situation occurs. We appreciate your professionalism and your patience, your friendship; you are a sincere person and a pleasure to work with." Thank you once again, The Staff at Sears Home Central
