I know what you mean, most really good clubs charge around $100 a month. Way too rich for my blood. Sometimes you have to look hard to find the smaller/cheaper clubs. There is a Gracie Jiu Jitsu place in my town run by a black belt that is $100 a month. I searched for others and found another Gracie Jiu Jitsu place that charges $50 a month run by a purple, which is fine for me since I am a beginner anyways. There was no advertisement and it wasn't even listed in the phone book. I would suggest to look at some of the different Gracie's websites and see if there is any affiliated schools in your area. Sometimes they have them run by the lower belt ranks for pretty cheap monthly dues. Check out others like Machado or whatever for affiliated clubs in your area. Good luck.
