Established in 1980, UMMA Martial Arts has grown to be one of the largest Muslim martial arts organizations in Canada, offering innovative programs that focus on the mind, body, and soul.

Under the guidance of Chef Instructor Sh. Abdullah Sabree, UMMA Martial Arts incorporates Islamic principles to enhance its martial arts curriculum.

The school's philosophy is encapsulated in the quote, “Know the nature of self in order to defend self,” emphasizing the importance of self-awareness in martial arts training.

UMMA Martial Arts offers classes for all ages and fitness levels, including Kids Tae Kwon Do, Teen & Adult Tae Kwon Do, Weapon Classes, and Sisters Tae Kwon Do. The school's unique approach to martial arts education includes incorporating salaah (prayers), dhikr (reflection), akhlaq (good character), and mustaqeem (balance) to help students strengthen their spiritual relationship with themselves and others.

In addition to its regular classes, UMMA Martial Arts also runs the UMMA Impact Program, which is dedicated to helping the community and non-profit organizations. A percentage of each LIVE membership sold goes towards providing healthy food to food banks, promoting the importance of proper nutrition for a healthy body and mind.
