True North Martial Arts

I’ve trained at True North Jiu Jitsu Academy and can confidently say it’s one of the best gyms around. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely care about each student’s progress, whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced practitioner. The environment is welcoming, clean, and very respectful, which makes it a great place for both adults and kids. Classes are well structured, challenging, and always focused on real technique and safety. You can really tell this academy has been built with passion and years of experience. Highly recommend True North Jiu Jitsu to anyone looking for high-quality training and a strong community.

This is the place !! If you want to teach your kids to excel at life in a safe and kind envoronment this is the place to go! And if you want to get into a really healthy hobby as an adult without running into guys with egos or attitiudes like some other clubs this is a really great and family oriented club. I just cant say enough good about True North Jiu Jitsu. An amazing environment to learn !

A couple of months ago, I decided to try Jiu Jitsu, mostly out of curiosity and with a half-closed mindset. I honestly didn’t think it would become a long-term passion but I couldn’t have been more wrong. After finishing my very first one-hour class, I already wanted to come back the very next day. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, patient and supportive. The coaching style and the overall gym environment are on another level, everyone is welcoming, friendly, and genuinely encourages one another. I now train regularly, along with attending kickboxing classes and my son is also registered in Jiu Jitsu. As a busy mom, I really appreciate that I can bring my kids with me while I train, the gym even has a lounge area where they can relax during class. Highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a supportive, empowering training environment.

I started my jiu-jitsu journey at at True North Jiu Jitsu Academy for 7 years, and overall it was a great experience. The owners and instructors genuinely care about their students and work hard to create a respectful, welcoming environment on the mats. Training is well structured and challenging without being overwhelming. I appreciated the academy’s proven success in developing high-level MMA fighters. It’s clear that their approach to jiu-jitsu translates extremely well to real fighting and MMA contexts, and that level of technical depth benefits everyone in the room, not just competitors. You’re learning jiu-jitsu that actually works. Add their focus on overall health with yoga, sauna, cold plunge and strength training programs. You have a one stop shop for health, fitness and self-defense.

True North Jiu-Jitsu Academy was an incredibly welcoming and friendly place. I took my children there yesterday to try it out, and they had an amazing time. The atmosphere was comfortable and positive, the people were very kind, and everything felt well organized and supportive. There were snacks and drinks available, which was a thoughtful touch, and overall it felt like a beautiful community. My kids left smiling and excited. We will definitely be returning!
