At Naru, we believe in more than just learning martial arts—we believe in transforming lives. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) offers a unique journey that challenges you physically, mentally, and emotionally. Whether you're an adult seeking a dynamic workout, a teenager looking to develop confidence, or a parent wanting your child to learn self-defense and discipline, BJJ has something for everyone.

At Naru, we believe that sports should be accessible to all children, regardless of financial circumstances. As part of our commitment to the community and to providing opportunities for children to benefit from martial arts training, we are excited to offer a Reduced Membership Program.

This initiative is designed to support families who may find it challenging to afford the full cost of training. Each school year, we will offer 7-8 children the chance to train at a discounted membership fee of up to 50% off, or possibly more depending on individual circumstances. In some cases, children may even be eligible for completely free training.

The reduced fee will be based on the family’s financial situation, and we encourage parents to reach out confidentially to discuss this option. Our goal is to ensure that every child has the opportunity to train, learn, and grow through BJJ, without financial barriers.

We invite parents to contact us directly if they are interested in learning more about this program and whether their child may qualify. All inquiries will be handled with respect, discretion, and sensitivity.
