Warriors Academy KC

6 months in and not a single complaint, great place to push yourself and meet awesome people! The instructors care about your goals and help you every step of the way

I’ve trained with my fair share of coaches and instructors. The staff here are world-class. Don’t believe me? Google them, or better yet just come try a class. To have access, in KC, to this level of training with coaches of this caliber is rare! No BS self-defense with their Krav program , competitive BJJ team, also a top-notch kids program for BJJ, coaches really take the time. It’s completely worth it. I won’t train anywhere else

Great place to train. I hadn't trained in kickboxing for many years, but was welcomed. The place has very good, patient instructors that are happy to work with you. If you are interested in this, I highly recommend it.

Warriors Academy is without question the place to be for self defense training! The coaches truly care about their students and teacher real life scenarios. It is a tribe of people that can become family if you let it. I have some great friends that have built a bond through hard work, sweat and struggle. Come check them out and change your life - it is worth it!

This is a great place to workout and learn self defense. They will meet you at the level you are at and work with what you have. I love learning and trying new skills in class. I’m so thankful they kept working with me when I couldn’t do one single push-up or burpee. Now 3.5 years later my health is better in my fifties than when I was in my thirties and forties. One of the best things about the academy is the instructors. They are professional and will push you to do your best. I can tell they really care about their students safety in and out of class. I’m healthier and have more confidence and skill than when I first started. And for that I’m forever grateful to the best instructors in KC.

I travel regularly for work and look for places to roll away from my home gym. I stopped by Warriors Academy while on a visit to KC, for a Jiu-Jitsu class. The instructor and students were very welcoming. The instructor was obviously very knowledgeable and allowed for, what I believe to be, an appropriate amount of time to drill the techniques he was teaching. We also spent some time rolling after the techniques part of the class, the atmosphere was great, awesome training partners and a great facility. If you're considering starting in Jiu-Jitsu, this would be a great place to get started. I'll definitely be back when in town and hope to be able to comment on some of the other types of classes. Thanks Warriors Academy KC!

I have been taking Krav classes for over a year and have never regretted signing up. My confidence has grown and I am in better shape both physically and mentally since starting. The instructors are really great. They have patience with me when I am struggling with a new move but will also push me out of my comfort zone when needed. Everyone I have met there so far is is extremely nice and welcoming.

Absolutely the best martial art gym in KCThe instructors are all amazing and this is the place to learn how to defend yourself, get into shape, and have a TON of fun on top of it. Coming here is one of the best decisions I've ever made for myself.

Even though I don't live as close as I used to, I still train here and when my toddler is old enough, she will train in BJJ & hopefully also kickboxing here. I trust Chip as a BJJ youth instructor and hope he'll still be here when my daughter is 5.I moved from KCMO to Independence and I live very close to 2 martial arts schools in Independence and I will be staying with WAKC and not training at a closer place. Coach Frass cares about his students and helps us with not just self-defense but also mental wellness and being in shape. Dani, Bryan & Benda are also A+ coaches and people that I look forward to having teach my daughter how to defend herself and in Dani's case how to be a confident woman. The MMA program is well managed by Coach Tyler and there is a good group of guys and women in MMA. There are people of all races that train here and we have a lot of women that train at WAKC so it's a good place to meet different kinds of people. Also, on the social tip, I am able to speak my mind to people at this gym freely and be disagreed with respectably and in these days and times, people are ostracized for having the wrong opinion so this is a breath of fresh air.

This academy has the most helpful instructors I have ever encountered. They take a personal interest in your growth. They are not only excellent at teaching you active self defense skills but also passive skills that help make you more aware of your surroundings and be able to identify potentially dangerous situations. All skill levels are welcome here and receive scalable training. We always have a wonderful time training together and helping each other get better. Would highly recommend!
