Connor is a great observant and knowledgeable striking coach. He will give you advice and solutions on how to fix and improve your striking technique. His classes are very beginner friendly and I have always felt welcome. The classes are also very small so you can get a lot of attention from the instructors.

I really like working with Connor on improving my Boxing and Kickboxing. He’s super professional and pushes me each training session! Nothing but good things to say about my experience with Connor! He’s a great coach!

I started training with Connor and Yaz in October 2021.
As someone who travels the world spending a lot of time in different gyms I can confidently say teachers like Connor are hard to find.
His attention to detail and ability to make complicated concepts easy to digest and implement is unmatched.
It is really cool to see everyone in class improve so quickly. I look forward to every lesson!

This man could teach a bird how to box.
Seriously though a very patient, calm and education teacher who works well with all age groups!

Worked with Connor and Yazzy both in a class setting and privately for about a year. The classes always felt well constructed, had a good variety of techniques and drills that applied directly to sparring. I still use a lot of the techniques he coached in my training today. The private sessions were also well formatted with a focus on weaknesses and areas to improve. Would highly recommend for newcomers and experienced alike.

Connor is a great coach.

Ive met and been around a lot of mma/boxing coaches

but what makes Connor special is his ability to empathise and connect with his clients.

Fighting is an art form and Connor is one of the few people who does not let his ability to fight get to his head.

If you're looking to learn boxing or any form of martial arts, id highly recommend Connor.

Hes a cool guy overall, in and out of training and you will 100% enjoy your time with him

Connors classes are great. You learn to really box and spar technically without taking all the physical damage you would typically get at other boxing gyms. Everyone is great to work with even if you come in as a beginner!

Connor is a great teacher. He brings a lot of knowledge and experience and does a great job of motivating you. He's as dedicated to the craft of teaching as to martial arts and it really shows.

I enjoy and look forward to every lesson

Connor is an excellent striking coach, having done both group and private classes with him. He is exceptionally skilled and was very patient, kind and present during our sessions.

I have done private lessons with Connor as well as his group classes. Not only are the classes a great workout and a lot of fun but I really felt like I was learning effective techniques rather than just working out.

Connor is an awesome trainer for all levels. Lots of patience and he makes training fun and exciting. He has put a lot of tools in my kit that’s for sure. I highly recommend him.

This guy knows what he's talking about.
Learn self defense and get fit in the process.
I highly recommend!

Very friendly and welcoming classes. Connor is a great instructor and makes me feel comfortable with my skill level. Very easy to follow his instructions and he is always pointing out ways for me to improve my technique. It’s a great feeling to learn new skills and build confidence.

Connor is an outstanding coach. He devises custom teaching solutions for his students, helping them improve on weaknesses and refining their game. His drills are thoughtfully devised to bring the training as close to real sparring as possible. And he is constantly inventing new ones. There is no one-size-fits-all here. In all my years of martial arts, I have never encountered a coach that bring this much professionalism, intelligence and experience to the table.
I trained with Connor for about a year over COVID, and I can honestly say my striking skills have improved tremendously. Movement, timing and especially confidence has been elevated significantly. I recommend him 100%, and I have already sent a few people his way.
I look forward to training with him again!

Connor is an excellent instructor who is passionate about MMA and teaching it well. He is confident, patient, firm and nice and this all becomes readily apparent when training with him. I’ve had the pleasure of training with Connor for a few years now and I’ve enjoyed all our sessions. He is also excellent with kids and teens. My sons enjoy training with Connor and look forward to their weekly lessons. I highly recommend Connor and his classes.

Connor is an outstanding boxing and MMA coach. I have had the pleasure of training with Connor. He is very professional with great communication skills and teaching ability. He is very detailed in his instruction. He always has a great lesson plan that has built upon his last session with you. Connor also has specific programs that are tailored to each individual’s specific strengths and needs.
To top it off Connor has functional MMA experience as a fighter that gives him the experience advantage most martial art coaches in Toronto don’t have.
I definitely recommend Connor Rideout as a first class boxing and MMA coach!

Great boxing class, coaches were very knowledgable. I would highly recommend this class to beginners and even advanced strikers.
