Gain valuable knowledge
Master skills & discipline
Self defence & get healthy
No matter where you are in your journey, we offer a class for you, young and older.
Health, strength, discipline and fun family time is all part of our class structure. Alone, or with other family members, join us.
Tigers (ages 4-7)
We love working with young children and contributing to their development. Master Gee’s Tigers classes are designed especially to meet the needs and abilities of children aged 4-7. From time to time, we will accept three-year-olds who are truly ready to begin training.
Our fun-filled, encouraging approach to martial arts helps our Tigers build confidence while they develop fundamental physical, social and emotional skills.
Master Gee’s has an excellent safety record. We don’t allow students to engage in physical contact with each other until they have gained control of their kicks and punches and learned how to block (defend) and roll safely.
Juniors (ages 8-12)
For children aged 8-12, our Juniors classes develop a full range of martial arts skills and techniques. Our curriculum focuses on children’s physical skills as well as their emotional and mental well being.
Experienced instructors guide Juniors to learn and practice a variety of punching and kicking moves and sequences. Juniors practice various self defense techniques and learn how to use safe and non-confrontational approaches to protect themselves. Each Juniors class also includes a group discussion on the essentials of good character.
Teens & Adults (13+)
Master Gee’s Adult classes are offered for all students aged 13 and older. Teens are treated with respect and encouragement and expected to demonstrate maturity and commitment.
We’re delighted when a parent decides to enroll in our martial arts classes. Not only are they making a commitment to their own health and wellness, they’re acting as positive role models for their children. Sharing the training experience together is great for family bonding. It’s also economical: we offer special discounts for families of three or more students.
What makes our training approach unique?
Master Gee’s Black Belt Academy is the first choice in Burnaby for families who want to grow stronger together. As a family-run business for more than 43 years, we’re living proof that “The family that kicks together sticks together”.
Our school is the longest-running professional martial arts academy in Burnaby. We’re grateful and proud to be voted #1 by our community year after year.
We teach multi-style martial arts for real life and all ages that serves the best combination of fitness, skills and self defence.
