“Love this place. I go everyday that they are open to workout or rain. Trainers are all encouraging and helpful and I started seeing results with weight loss as well as improvement in different boxing/defense techniques”
“I joined FCF at the start of July 2025, since then I have enjoyed the welcoming community the team creates and the coaching i have received to make sure I don't get hurt. There is no ego in this gym, just a lot of good people trying to be a little healthier each day.”

“This gym is extremely clean and the vibes are extremely inspirational. Everyone is inviting and the energy is palpable. I can hardly wait to reach my personal health goals with my new gym family! And being open 24/7, the only one standing in the way of my success is me. Loving the support system!”
“CrossFit on 18th is an excellent gym. I was in Kansas City visiting for a few days and did two drop in classes here. The coach and owner was extremely welcoming and made sure to check in with me about my CrossFit experience and if I had any limitations before we started. Both days the workouts were challenging and well programmed. The gym is in a very cool brick building that gives a semi industrial vibe while still being bright and open. The equipment was clean and well taken care of and the space was utilized perfectly. I will return to this gym anytime I am visiting KC. If you’re in town and looking for a place to drop in you should definitely check out CrossFit on 18th!”
“This place is more than just a gym… it is a community. Everyone there (staff and members) are so kind and so supportive. I genuinely look forward to going to workout there everyday. They have the best workout splits of any gym I’ve gone too because they are challenging but also structured to really see results! I feel so much stronger in just the short time I have been there. So if you are looking to build community, strong muscles, and improve your overall health check this place out!!!”
“Absolutely loved visiting Goddess Maker Fitness! Such a welcoming, empowering, and safe space for women. I took a Vibe Dance class and Elizabeth was AMAZING — high energy, encouraging, and so fun. Even with my limited dance experience, I was able to move, groove, and actually keep up without feeling intimidated. The whole studio has such a positive, uplifting vibe. Left feeling confident, sweaty, and happy. I will 100% be back!”
“I just started going here and already love it! All the coaches are super friendly and have made an effort to learn my name right away, which makes such a difference. Everyone working out is really encouraging and positive — it honestly feels like a team or little gym family. I actually look forward to coming in, which says a lot!”
“KS Athletic Club has something for everyone. The CrossFit, SWEAT, and strength classes are outstanding because they can be scaled to any fitness level. The coaches, community, and accountability make it a place where you can be honest about your goals and actually achieve them. The youth speed and strength programs are excellent as well.”
“Out of towner dropping in here for the week. Super friendly and solid programming. I caught them on their test week. - still solid workouts. Clean gym with up to date equipment. They have a 5:30am class which was helpful on the not too early but not too late side before getting ready for the day.”

“This is one of the best things you can do to improve your strength and agility. I have been going for 7 years now and Lars and his coaches have been positive and encouraging every single day! Yet they are always striving to make you a better athlete. Another thing is that the coaches get to know every kid personally, not just some kid they coach.”

“I was in constant pain with achilles tendonitis for 2-3 years. Ortho sent me to PT, which didn't help, so he recommended surgery. Before that 'last resort' option, I saw Travis and Bri. Within 2 weeks of training with Bri, I was pain free! Bri excels at diagnosing the cause of the pain instead of just treating the symptoms.She also takes the time to make sure you're doing every exercise correctly, keeping me safe and building strength smartly. She's knowledgeable, kind, and incredibly supportive - she truly wants me to feel strong and confident. She's my fitness cheerleader and has been a life changer!”
“Going to a new gym is never easy, but Gary was remarkably kind and helpful when I clearly looked confused. Overall, I had a great experience and would recommend. The next time I'm in town, I'll be back. 🙂”

“This gym has helped me gain confidence with my lifts! I do the Strength and Conditioning classes and I really enjoy getting a good lift and then finishing with group cardio. It’s a dynamic class where the coaches are very knowledgeable and ready to help. Everyone is encouraging and it’s just a positive and fun way to get your workout in!”
“We’ve had a great experience here with our daughter, who plays volleyball. Since she started training, we’ve seen a big improvement in her hitting and her kill percentage, and her serves have become much more aggressive.
What stands out the most is the confidence they’ve helped build in her. They don’t just focus on strength—they really take the time to teach proper technique, like how to attack effectively and use your core and full body to generate more power.
It’s been awesome to see her grow both physically and mentally. Highly recommend to any athlete looking to improve their performance and confidence”
“I rarely write reviews but City Gym deserves it! The staff and trainers are all incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Everyone is so nice here! Their classes are awesome and have pushed me to try new ways of working out, especially with a focus on functional strength.”

“I’ve been going to FHF on and off since around 2018/2019, and I’ve come back to them through so many different seasons of life. I started pre-COVID loving their Tabata classes.
Coming back postpartum was humbling in a way I didn’t expect. I remember not even being able to do a sit-up, and the coaches met me exactly where I was. They helped me rebuild strength safely, with real attention to form and modifications.
Life has pulled me in and out of routine over the years, including a demanding job that knocked me off track (again 😅). But every time I come back, it feels like picking back up somewhere supportive instead of starting over.
Now with a 4-year-old, I also really appreciate how family-friendly it is. It’s one of the only gyms I’ve been to where I can bring him with me comfortably, and he’s welcome in the space. That mix of strong coaching, real community, and flexibility through every stage of life is what keeps me coming back. 🫶🏻”

“I’ve been to multiple anytime fitness locations, this one and the one in Gladstone are my favorites. It’s spacious and the Coaches/Trainers are friendly and inviting. Always say hi and bye to me, and open 24/7!”
“This gym is the best. Great coaches, great leadership, great people. If you want to surround yourself with people who make you better, this is it.
This gym is great for developing skills and building confidence for both beginners and experienced athletes. I have grown as an athlete from expert coaching and encouragement. I also had the opportunity for my highschool age daughter to join here this summer as a beginner. It was an amazing experience for her, not only for developing skills but also for her confidence. Top notch coaching and a welcoming environment made her feel like she belonged. She takes the skills and confidence she developed here with her to the school weight room and sports.
I bring my younger kids with me here often and I am so very thankful for the positive influences we all get to be around- People are clapping, cheering each other on, pushing each other to be better and so welcoming of all people at any skill level. The people here are great examples of what hard work, integrity, and community is all about.”
“I stumbled upon Core Strong Fitness almost 4 months ago and I've been going regularly ever since. I really like the variety of classes, they are both challenging and fun. It took me a little bit to get used to using the TRX straps since they were a new experience, but I can really tell that my balance and core strength have definitely improved as well as my overall strength. The coaches are incredibly encouraging and meet you at your fitness level while still pushing you to your next potential. They are diligent in correcting bad form to prevent injuries and maximize results. I have to say that I've never before looked forward to going to the gym. The atmosphere is fun and I feel great and usually have a smile on my face when I leave each class.”
“I’ve been doing CrossFit since 2017, at Matters since 2022. The coaches and athletes at CrossFit Matters are outstanding. They are all highly committed to maintaining technically safe and efficient standards of moment and a drama-free, fun, supportive community. If getting to see your people helps motivate you to go to the gym (even when you’re tired and the couch is calling), then this place is perfect. The coaches are all experts, each with different strengths and styles, and they can help you succeed at any level - whether you’re very dedicated and want to compete or if you’re seeking a balanced approach to mental health and physical fitness.”
“My favorite gym to come to when I’m in the KC area. Everyone is very welcoming, the owners are great and they just expanded so they have ample space. Pro tip: go to UPC coffee after class for coffee and a breakfast burrito. ?”
“Sitting at a desk all day for work and eating poorly had taken its toll on my body for many years. At 58, when I finally decided to do something about it, I started walking and changed my diet and was able to lose some weight. But when I hit a plateau, I knew it was time to get serious. The thought of joining a big box gym and spending the next year waisting my time with no plan and no results, had me searching for the right fit in a trainer who could motivate and encourage me with the right fitness plan, but also someone who was knowledgeable in putting together the right nutrition and supplement plan to get me on the right path for long term success.
Matt Terry and Body Solutions has given me exactly what I was searching for! I feel blessed to have found Matt whose knowledge and expertise in fitness and nutrition has me feeling better than I’ve felt in decades. I’m still new and just finished my first 90 days of the small group training class. So far, I’ve lost an additional 12 lbs. and 5% body fat, while gaining muscle and I feel great. If you’re looking for someone you can partner with, to put together a complete fitness and nutrition plan, I highly encourage you to reach out to Matt Terry and Body Solutions.”
“A home away from home!
I moved to Kansas City for three years for school. I started going to this gym right away and I’m so grateful I found this place. The owner is so kind. He knows everyone by their name and greets you with a smile. All of the staff members are amazing. They are friendly and really get to know you. The place is always so clean and the equipment is well taken care of. During a stressful three years, this gym was my sanctuary. I cannot recommend this place enough.”

“I’ve been going since August of 2023! I love the energy in the room and the gentle pushes all of the coaches give when they see me lifting too easily or seeing me almost give up shouting out encouragement!”
“I usually avoid writing reviews, but this center deserves credit for maintaining a good environment consistently. Members wipe down equipment after use and staff reinforces rules without sounding rude. Their functional training zone has enough space to move around comfortably, which is rare in crowded gyms these days.”
