Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in St. Norbert.
About 9 minutes north on Pembina. Black-belt coaching, no contracts, free trial open.
St. Norbert to 1455 Waverley.
St. Norbert is Winnipeg's southernmost neighborhood — a historic community where the Red River winds through and Pembina Hwy is the main arterial north. The drive to Socius is nine minutes: Pembina north past the U of M, west on McGillivray, south to Waverley. The route is clean and mostly residential past the U of M campus. Vista School and Pembina Trails Collegiate families from the area train alongside members from Richmond West and Fort Garry. No parkade, no meter: free on-site spots at the gym.
Why Socius is the St. Norbert choice.
Small-group attention
Capped class sizes mean real coaching feedback every round — not a faceless mass intake.
Black-belt coaching
Multiple black belts on the mats with 15+ years of experience each. Structured curriculum, beginner-friendly.
No contracts
Month-to-month memberships, no gimmicks. Train because you love it, not because you're locked in.
