Rideout MMA - Boxing & Kickboxing Club

Connor is an awesome coach. He's attentive, knowledgeable, and patient. I ask a ton of questions, so it feels great to have a coach who is willing and able to take the time to answer questions.I struggled finding a coach/gym when I first moved to Toronto. Most gyms I visited had disinterested coaches who spent most of the time on their phones. But Connor really cares for his students and their progress.He understands there's no one-size-fits-all type program. As a southpaw with an unorthodox style who has built up tons of bad habits over my time in karate, I'm extremely thankful to find a smart coach who is both willing and excited to fix the dents in my boxing and kickboxing.His classes are unique and engaging. His thoughtfulness, intelligence, and passion for martial arts make him one of the best coaches anyone could find.

Connor is an amazing coach! He's professional and organized, knowledgable and detail oriented, positive and motivational, and you can feel that he truly cares about his students and is passionate about their growth.For a new boxer (like myself) walking into a gym with experienced boxers can feel intimating but Connor has created an environment where boxers of all levels can come together and feel welcomed.His classes are well thought-out and packed with fun and challenging exercises to keep you engaged all class. His instructions are clear and he alway gives lots of analogies so that everyone can understand. He also takes the time to give personalized feedback and tips to each student with a strong focus on technique. I always walk away having learned something new.Highly recommend his classes!

It's well known that Connors ability to break down technique into simple steps is unparalleled. Whether you're a beginner improving your straights or more experienced and looking to improve your footwork, Connor will patiently explain what you can do to add more penetration to your punches" (or kicks). He's friendly

Highly recommend! Connor is a very technical trainer and I really appreciate that. Whether you want to refine your technique to avoid inquiry or to learn the right way for beginners, his classes are great. Personal training focused on individualized growth and strength has been amazing!

Amazing gym! Connor explains all the movements with a lot of patience and make sure everyone is being assisted. Best teacher/trainer I had in a very long time. The gym atmosphere is easy going and everyone is very friendly. Great experience overall!

Connor is a fantastic trainer. Encouraging, easy-to-understand lessons that give tangible benefits each week. Good for anyone from newbie to more experienced.

Had an awesome one-on-one boxing lesson with Connor! He focused on technique and provided personalized recommendations. As someone with experience in martial arts, I highly recommend his training. Great session!

Connor was an absolute beast of a trainer and has a way of making you feel comfortable, breaking you out of your shell and training at the best of your ability no matter what skill level you are in boxing. He made me feel super welcome and encouraged to get back at it! Can't wait to get back to Rideout MMA

Connor has been the most understanding and hands-on coach I’ve had. Connor also has fun drills and warmups as class is starting so if you’re new and need to break the ice with new people at class, it’s notintimidating and awkward jumping in as someone new. Connor also is great at sharing his knowledge whenever you have a question. Thanks to Connor for the opportunity and definitely come check out his classes :)

Connor is an awesome coach and mentor! He works diligently with everyone in his classes and adjusts his coaching style to fit the needs of all his students. I have been training with Connor for quite some time and my striking has improved tremendously due to his attention to detail and his tailored approach.Whether you’re highly experienced or putting on gloves for the first time, I would highly recommend Connor to take your training to the next level!
