After being away for some time, returning to this academy has reminded me why it’s so special. The moment I walked back in, the coaches and teammates welcomed me with such warmth that it truly felt like coming home. This isn’t just a gym, it’s a family. Every class pushes me to grow, not only as a jiu jitsu practitioner but as a man. The coaches pour so much into their students, and the community here lifts you up both on and off the mats. It’s rare to find a place where the level of training is world class and the people make you feel like you belong. If you’re searching for more than just a place to train, if you want a second home, a family, and a journey that will change you, this is the only place you’ll ever need!

My son is in the younger kids for Jiu-Jitsu… and I couldn’t be happier!!! Everyone is GREAT! My son is 5 and everyone has such patience to catch him up to speed! Carlos is amazing! My sons brags about his teacher all the time! He looks forward to it being Wednesday every single day! This place is so personable and very organized. You will not regret your decision on coming here! Amazing!!!

Great facilities that are always improving, large mat space, plenty of classes, students at all belt levels, and an extremely welcoming environment. Different classes ranging from a Self Defense focus to a Competition focus. I have been coming here for almost 3 years now and have loved it. I began in late 2022 just looking for something new and ended up falling in love with it. I have met a ton of great people through this gym and couldn't imagine my life without it! I highly recommend anyone in the area to stop in and check it out!

Great school! The instructors and community are fantastic! I started my jiu jitsu journey a little later in life and I am 59 now. Sean, Michael and Carlos provide a safe welcoming place to train while at the same time pushing you to be your best. I would recommend this school to folks of all ages as you won't be disappointed.

Frequently Asked Questions

IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?

Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at Gracie Humaita Kansas City. It's the best way to experience our training environment, meet our coaches, and see if BJJ is right for you. No experience or equipment needed — comfortable athletic clothing is fine.

DO I NEED ANY EXPERIENCE TO START?

No experience necessary! Gracie Humaita Kansas City welcomes complete beginners. Our instructors break down every technique step by step, and our community is known for being welcoming and patient with new students. Everyone starts as a white belt, and that's exactly where you should start too.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO MY FIRST CLASS?

For your first visit, comfortable athletic clothing works perfectly — a t-shirt and shorts or athletic pants. Once you commit to training regularly, you'll want to invest in a gi (kimono). Our coaches can recommend quality options at a range of price points.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I TRAIN?

Most students at Gracie Humaita Kansas City train 2 to 3 times per week and see consistent progress. Showing up regularly matters far more than training intensely once in a while. We offer multiple class times throughout the week so you can find a schedule that fits your life.

DO YOU OFFER CLASSES FOR KIDS?

Yes! We offer dedicated programs for children and teens at Gracie Humaita Kansas City. Our youth classes focus on discipline, respect, confidence-building, and the fundamentals of BJJ in a safe, fun environment.
