These terms govern your use of the DKM Academy website and your participation in classes, training and events at our facility. By using this site or training with us, you agree to them.
Last updated: July 28, 2026
These Terms & Conditions form an agreement between you and DKM Academy (Diyako Martial Arts Academy), 398 Steeles Ave W, Unit B1, Thornhill, Ontario. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use this website or participate in our programs.
These terms should be read together with our Privacy Policy and our Waiver & Assumption of Risk.
Submitting a booking request is a request, not a confirmed reservation. A class is confirmed only once a member of our team contacts you. Free trial classes are limited to one per person and are offered at our discretion.
Class times, programs, instructors and schedules may change without notice. We will make reasonable efforts to communicate changes in advance.
Membership fees, day pass rates and any promotional pricing are as displayed on our Membership page at the time of purchase and may change for future terms. Fees are payable in advance.
Unless otherwise stated in writing, memberships and passes are non-transferable and non-refundable. Unused classes do not carry over and have no cash value. Cancellation, freeze and refund requests are handled in accordance with Ontario's Consumer Protection Act, 2002, which governs fitness and personal development services contracts, including any applicable statutory cooling-off period.
Missed classes are not credited. Please give reasonable notice if you cannot attend a booked session.
Participants must follow all instructions from coaches and staff at all times. Contact drills and sparring are permitted only when a coach expressly authorizes them, using the required protective equipment.
We do not tolerate violence outside of supervised drills, intoxication, harassment, discrimination, unsafe behaviour or misuse of equipment. We may suspend or terminate access, without refund, for conduct that endangers others or disrupts the training environment.
Techniques taught at DKM Academy are for training, fitness and lawful self-defence only. Misuse of what you learn is your sole responsibility.
Combat sports training is physically demanding. You confirm that you are medically fit to participate and that you have disclosed any condition, injury, pregnancy or medication that could affect your safety. You should consult a physician before beginning any new training program.
Nothing on this website — including blog articles about fitness, weight loss, confidence or mental health — is medical advice. It is general information only and must not replace advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
Participation in boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai, conditioning and related activities carries an inherent risk of injury. By participating, you voluntarily assume those risks. Full details are set out in our Waiver & Assumption of Risk.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, DKM Academy, its owners, coaches, staff and contractors are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising from your use of this website or participation in our programs. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under Ontario or Canadian law, including liability for gross negligence.
We are not responsible for personal property that is lost, damaged or stolen on the premises.
All content on this website — text, photography, video, logos and branding — is owned by DKM Academy or used with permission, and may not be copied, republished or used commercially without our written consent.
You agree not to interfere with the operation or security of this site, submit false information, or use our forms for spam or unlawful purposes.
Photos and video may be taken during classes, seminars and events for training and promotional purposes. If you do not wish to appear in our media, tell a coach in writing and we will accommodate your request and remove you from future material where reasonably possible.
These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. Any dispute will be dealt with in the courts of Ontario.
If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in full force.
We may update these terms at any time. Continued use of the website or participation in our programs after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
