Ottawa Academy of Martial Arts

Amazing energy, and beautifully setup gym. By far one of the nicest places I've trained in Canada.

Shady people running a shady business that will take advantage of good people. They preach about being better but forget to look at themselves in the mirror. They will steal your money and then some so please avoid this gym at all cost.

If you want to learn Jiu Jitsu the good way, that’s the place! Great coaches and kind people!

I visited for the week from my home gym in Winnipeg. Hammer, Eric, Justin and all the other instructors/students were very welcoming and helpful. Looking forward to visiting again!

It's my second home since 2014, it has the best instructors in the city and outstanding training partners. Family oriented team and competitive.

Great atmosphere, instructors take their time to teach the technique in a fashion even a novice like me could understand. The training was helpful while also being very intense. The students I rolled with were quick to offer me advice and I never felt belittled for my lack of knowledge. Very welcoming atmosphere. I look forward to going back.

Ali was fantastic in providing information prior to doing the trial and for the sign up process. The different senseis for the tiny tigers program are patient, they ensure the kids are active and having fun while starting to instill the fundamentals of martial arts and some discipline. The most important thing for me is that my son really likes it and wants to go back frequently.

We moved to a new neighborhood and found ourselves unable to secure a spot for our kindergartener in the after-school program at his new school. OAMA to the rescue! Their sign-up is flexible, they do a very safe pick up in a van (big thrill for a little kid who's only ever walked to school) and the staff and teachers just couldn't be more warm and welcoming. We thought we were just getting ourselves out of a pinch, knowing nothing about martial arts- but it turned out to be so much more and was the #1 factor that eased the transition for our son with a big move and a lot of changes. Our kiddo is continuing with lessons and we're so grateful this resource is here in the community.

One of the best martial arts school in ottawa no cap. Everyone is so friendly especially the coaches you guys should come train and you'll see.
