Great facility, large mat space, incredible coaching/instruction, and fantastic culture. Being a woman in a male dominated sport can be challenging but the decision to train here feels easy. The members are respectful and make me feel safe and the large women’s locker room with a private shower are such a huge bonus. Tough training that makes you want to keep coming back.

Undoubtedly the best Kids Program in the area. Trust me, we tried them all before landing here. Carlos is a fantastic coach. Holds the kids to a high standard. The older kids are leaders in the room which translates to being leaders in life. The younger kids aren't shunned for chasing butterflies, rather, prompted to rejoin the class and partake in the activities. Plenty of coaches, every kid gets attention. 10/10

I recently finished the onboarding class which was absolutely incredible. Coach Sean is a wizard when it comes to teaching jiu jitsu and getting you to understand the smallest details that make the world of difference. This place seems like a family, like you’re gaining a family that really cares about you and wants to see you succeed. I feel so much better physically and mentally because of this place and the great coaches that share their knowledge with me. I highly recommend Gracie Humaita jiu jitsu to anyone looking to learn jiu jitsu from the best!

The staff at this school are truly wonderful teachers. Everyone is so friendly and passionate about sharing their art . I love that the school has a fundamentals course so students aren't just jumping in with no working knowledge of what it is they are doing in a live fire environment as we have seen elsewhere. I wish I had the option of giving this school a ten star rating!

This gym will make you feel right at home from day one, doesn't matter if you are brand new or a colored belt. Great instructors too, and one thing that is different in a good way is that they work alot of wrestling and takedowns. Everyone here starts standing up and will give you a good roll. Also this place really never closes too there are always someone there training even on holidays. 100/10 would recommend 👌

If you want to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and no nonsense self defense - this is the place to go. My husband used to train with the owner, Mike, 10+ years ago and wanted to get back into the martial art. He asked me if I wanted to do it with him, so I thought “why not?” I had zero martial arts background and had no idea what to expect. I was immediately welcomed with the most kind, competent instructors and have been hooked since the first day I stepped on the mats. The community of people at this gym is unmatched. Sean, Mike, and Carlos all provide unique skill sets for a well-rounded game. Sean teaches all of the curriculum classes and is an excellent source of knowledge and expertise for Gracie jiu jitsu. All of the black belt instructors know the Gracie family personally and have trained alongside them. There is a strong emphasis to respect our training partners at this gym and we all take care of each other. I could not be more grateful for all of the skills, knowledge and relationships I have been able to build thus far at this gym and look forward to continuing my jiu jitsu journey.

If you want to learn Jiu-Jitsu and learn how to be a better human, this is where you want to be. If you are overwhelmed with the idea of walking through the door, let me ease your mind. We are a family here at GHKC and we want you to come join us. The instructors have created a great on-boarding program for new students that will ease you into the fundamentals of Jiu-Jitsu and teach you how to train safely. I walked through that door in 2020 and I can honestly say it was the most impactful decision I have ever made. The training I have received here has been top notch. The instructors have dedicated their lives to the art, and you can see it in the way they teach. If you keep showing up, you will get good at Jiu-Jitsu, make great friends and your life overall will improve. Come join the family!

The best jiujitsu gym in Kansas City. I travel for work and I’m always visiting new jiujitsu gyms when I’m traveling across the country. Gracie Humaita Kansas City is one of the best gyms I’ve ever had the privilege of training at. The instructors have created a culture of safety, high performance, and effective technique practice. In other words, if you want to learn REAL jiujitsu, be surrounded by athletes, and have a safe environment to do it with great students - look no further I appreciated the friendliness and how the students and instructors welcomed me even though I’m from a different school and lineage of Jiu-Jitsu. I was impressed with the workout and the caliber of students they have created. Whether you’re a guest or wanting to try Jiu-Jitsu for the first time, this is the best school in Kansas City to take lessons from. Thanks for having me

Feels like I've actually found a purpose in life. All the coaches are kind and intuitive and every student I've met has been a delight. I'm not gonna stop coming anytime soon and I strongly recommend GHKC for your combat sport ambitions. If you know you have grit and a non-quit mindset and you enjoy pushing yourself to new levels then this is the place for you.

I’ve attended many different schools throughout the country for drop in classes and intro classes, and this one is the best i’ve been to. it’s chill, welcoming, and when i was going through financial problems i was always told “don’t worry just come to class”. they genuinely believe and teach that as long as you come to class not only will you get better you’ll improve your life outside the gym, and you’ll bring that back to the gym. Can’t wait to move back and get the kids back in. They don’t want your money, they need it to keep the business running, but they really want you to be a functioning member of the family.

I’ve been training at GHKC for over a year now and love it. It has the best community where new white belts are supported and the instruction from black belts is outstanding, as is the teaching from brown, purple, and blue belts as well. I’ve made great friends and learned to love the journey. There’s lots of availability for classes in gi and no gi, and opportunities to roll after every session. The ownership is constantly renovating to improve the facility. GHKC is also very balanced between self-defense and competition philosophies. Everyone is welcome. Sign up for the onboarding if you’re new for a great intro to Jiu Jitsu. It’s the best stress management I’ve found, and well worth the investment.

We are in the program designed around younger kids and kids new to Jiu-Jitsu and we couldn’t be happier. They allow you to come in and experience some classes before you commit to ensure it’s the right place for your child. My son was so scared the first lesson and Sunny(one of the instructors) engaged him and got him on the mat and the next thing you know he’s all in. Carlos does a great job teaching the kids, he also is great with the newer students . It feels more like a community versus just a class. Very much like a community. I would recommend them to anyone and frankly I trust them with my children so that shows how good they really are.

Professor Graeber is UNBELIEVABLE!! He is an INCREDIBLE instructor, and his passion for teaching is amazing! His students are super talented, and his level of detail on techniques makes it so easy to learn. And from the moment I walked in, he treated me like family.

In short, come for the top-tier instruction, stay for the quality community of some of the most respectable and passionate men and women in the area. I shopped around a few schools in Kansas City before i settled on Gracie Humaita. What made this gym special was the chance to train with highly skilled instructors in a school with ties to the founding Gracie Family, all in a no-nonsense and open environment. I was immediately welcomed by everyone, from black belt to white, which made my transition through the first days of the sport so much easier. Every class we bow onto the mats, shake hands, and introduce ourselves. While this may seem obvious, it made all the difference for someone starting out in martial arts, and is definitely an atmosphere of mutual respect and encouragement this academy has worked hard to foster. In every class, I am guided by instructors and training partners who are genuinely engaged in my success, which is something I see repeated for every student at our academy. Coaches always take the time to personalize instruction to an individual student's needs, and most importantly, follow up down the line on any questions raised in previous classes. Instruction is dynamic because our coaches come from different backgrounds and add their "flair" to the standardized core curriculum : one class you may be learning collar chokes from a krav maga expert, the next youll be rolling with a black belt who trained with the greats, or breaking a crazy sweat with ab workouts in between drills. There's something for everybody here: bjj instruction in a small class environment, kids classes, self defense for the street, self-discipline, personal growth, and so on. The students come from all walks of life, so there is definitely a place for everyone here!

When I was in the Army infantry I had a strong sense of brotherhood, comradery, and friendship. I haven't gotten that anywhere else since I have been out (for about 7 years now) but found it again at Gracie Humaita. From the first day I was at the academy I was treated with respect, the students thanked me for training with them, and they took an interest in learning my name. That impression has stuck with me and inspires me to want to do the same and build closer bonds with the students and instructors. Mike is the head instructor and is an awesome guy. Very personable. He gave me a warm welcome the first day I was there, remembered my name the next day, and has treated me like a personal friend ever since. The instructors clearly have a passion for BJJ and will talk to you about it for hours if you let them ;) I wouldn't have it any other way. I am treated like family at the academy and I look forward to training each and every time!

The instructors here are highly skilled, but also very humble. Unlike some other gyms, there are no egos on the mats at this place... It really is a place where anyone can come in, learn a martial art that can actually be employed in a real situation, and become a better person in the process. Michael Graeber and his team of instructors are absolutely awesome. I'm a busy person with a demanding job and 3 kids. I'm also not as young as I used to be... But I look forward to training each and every week. The instructors take great care to make sure each and every person in class gets something out of it, and they're always happy to work with you if you're struggling with a technique. It's obvious they take great pride in helping you get better... Doesn't matter if you're a high level brown belt or if it's your first time. This is a quality of a gym that will be around for a long time. One of the best decisions I've made in my life was getting started with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu... It's made me a more confident business person, a better father and a better husband. Michael Graeber and the rest of the instructors at Gracie Humaita KC have given me so much in the way of knowledge around this martial art. There are a lot of places to train in KC, and I can honestly say this is one of the best.

A few months after I began training, I remember telling a fellow student that I had been to other gyms for YEARS and not felt as close or as welcomed as I felt at Gracie Humaita after just a few weeks. I've been attending for about 8 months now, and the academy feels like a second home. The people are like family. I can't recommend it enough. All the instructors have been kind, patient, and demonstrated both concern for my safety and well-being, as well as an investment in my success. I've seen them show this same attention and concern toward every person that walks in the door. These folks are not only skilled and dedicated to the craft, but they truly have hearts of gold. P.S.

I was visiting Kansas City for work for a few days and I wanted to find a place to train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu so I visited Gracie Humaita there in town. I was received a very warm welcome as the instructor and students were very friendly. Each student had introduced themselves to me, something I have not seen in a long time. Because I took an hour ride on a city bus to get there, I had plans to take a bus back to the hotel but the members of the club would not hear of it and instead, I was given a ride home by one of the students.The place had good energy and the training I received was top notch and professional! Will certainly visit there again once I am in town.

This Gracie academy instructs you very well in practical self-defense. But there also some real intangibles from this experience that you start to develop: it builds character; it instills real confidence, and brings clarity of thought to your personal and professional life. In less than nine months I have lost more than 40 lbs in this journey as well.

Our kids started last December, quickly followed by my husband. We wanted our kids to train martial arts for defense and safety purposes, and also to learn self-discipline and participate on a team. I've been blown away at the boost in confidence and ability to focus/remain controlled at school, the friends they've made, and the way this place treats everyone like family! My husband has lost 40 pounds in six months. I started the women's class recently (NOT something I would typically be into, but after watching our whole family benefit, I had to try), and it is a welcoming and safe environment for a total beginner to learn at their pace, be challenged, and find a group of people all striving to be their best. I feel more empowered when I'm out running alone now, and it's a workout like no other! If you're on the fence, all I can say is try it once and you'll be hooked!

Our whole family just loves Gracie Humaita Kansas City! We drive in each week from Fort Leavenworth, about 50 minutes each way, to attend stellar classes and to be a part of this fantastic community. (There are BJJ classes offered less than a mile from our house, but they can't compare to Gracie Humaita.) Our children, ages 4 and 5, are gaining confidence, physical strength and will know how to handle any bullying issues down the road. (What peace of mind for a parent!) The women's class that I attend is wonderful, and I recommend it highly. This is truly a gem in the middle of downtown!
