I travel for work and it’s hard for me to find an actual boxing gym to constantly progress. So, I was glad that I found this gym when I was on the road.

P.s tell Chris I’m sorry it was my first time holding the mitts. I hadn’t practice the coordination aspect of that.

Totally had a awkward feeling before I made it to the door.. A Gentleman came outside when I pulled up, before I made it to the door indicated that my son wasn't old enough for the scheduled time on Sat ! Long story short I had a bad impression just to enroll my son in a activity he wants to learn.. Any recommendations, I appreciate it !

I've been coming here for years, off and on, and everyone is always friendly and welcoming. I love this place for weight loss and stress relief. It's a great place to come, whether you're a beginner or at an intermediate skill level. Zach is the coach, and he's very knowledgeable and skilled.

Was looking for a good boxing gym to learn real skills, and get in good exercise with people who are positive.

Started as a total beginner, and Zach paired me with a trainer on my first session to learn the fundamentals.

Every other workout has been with different members of various experience levels, but all whom know their stuff. The pairings really help drive home good habits, and encouragement, while Zach monitos everyone and offers advice along with explanations that make sense.

Only a few weeks in, and I feel that I’ve learned a ton, self confidence has gone up, and I look forward to every class I attend.

If I could give the gym 10 stars, I would.

Did a private lesson and a group class here when visiting the area. Great gym! Super atmosphere with very welcoming staff and other members and none of the “attitude” that can be intimidating at boxing gyms sometimes when coming in as a new patron. Excellent drills, individualized attention and quality of instruction. If I lived in KC (or if I decided to move there in the future) this would definitely be my spot!

Just started coming in regularly the past month with no boxing experience. Coach Zach and all the regulars do a wonderful job creating a culture of hard work in a friendly and safe environment. Whether you’re looking to come in to get fit or looking to to learn how to develop boxing skills, Sweet Z’s will help you accomplish your goals. Coach Zach also offers private seshes for anyone wanting extra training or socially distanced training. His wife also offers yoga and meditation classes in the gym!

What an amazing workout and Zach and Christi have created an atmosphere that is so welcoming. People new to the sport are welcomed with open arms by not just them, but the more experienced members of the gym.
So much fun!

I was vaguely interested in boxing. Thanks to Sweet Z's, it has been something I don't think I can live without. I've been going for a few months, completely new to it and not in any real fighting shape. Deciding to jump into a class at Sweet Z's has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. It's more than hitting bags, you're working with real people at every class. The environment is exactly the way that I pictured a real boxing gym to be - gritty and without pretenses. Every single one of the people I've met here, guys and gals are all stand up people. If you want to get in fighting shape, get real boxing instruction with real people and at incredibly reasonable price, you should give Sweet z's a try. They have all the gear and you can just show up in any workout clothes. It’s not required but you may want to bring your own hand wraps.

Sweet Z's Gym is amazing. I had the pleasure of training there this past summer when I was visiting in Kansas City, and it was the highlight of the summer. The workouts are challenging at all levels, and you get great instruction in boxing. The owner, Zach, is friendly and laid back, but at the same time a top-notch teacher, and takes a personal interest in each person's boxing development. He also has a solid background in other martial arts which I found helpful in learning how to blend boxing technique with other martial arts (boxing is not readily available where I live). The people who train at the gym were all very helpful and friendly, and hard workers, pushing themselves and inspiring me--without feeling pressured about it--to train harder and do my best.

Zach also offers self defense classes for kids. Our family schedule only allowed my son to go to one session, but he loved it.

In sum, Sweet Z's is a great place to work out, learn boxing, and have fun.

This is a great gym for learning to box and getting a great workout as well. Zack is encouraging and good at pushing everybody while keeping it fun. If you have every thought about boxing be sure to stop in for a class

I started going to Sweet Z's Boxing Gym back in 2012 to get more fit and also hone my self defense and fighting skills. Zach, the owner and coach is very skilled at working with a wide range of people, which makes this gym a great environment to train in. All the regulars are good people, and the gym has a laid back and helpful atmosphere. It’s a great place to train for both experienced fighters as well as new people looking to get fit. The anaerobic cardio nature of boxing is one of the greatest, most effective ways to change one’s body for the better. The gym will not pressure you to do anything prematurely like sparring if you’re not comfortable yet, but it’s a positive environment that will encourage you to continue improving so that you will become more at ease with advanced things such as sparring and other kinds of fighting methods. Both the sporting and social element of the gym gives a trainee much higher odds of long term fitness success and improvement than a typical commercial gym full of boredom-inducing treadmills and ellipticals. The training challenges you physically and mentally - but at the end of a session, you’re always happy that you came.

I came to appreciate this boxing gym so much, that when I moved out of my prior home, a major reason I relocated to my current address was because it is so close to Zach's gym. That way I have much less of an excuse to not get out and go boxing whenever I can. It works wonders for both the body and the soul.

I boxed with Z's for two years and loved it. I went on to other amateur boxing gyms in Kansas City and St. Louis area, but Z's by far is the best for a hobbist boxer or someone just wanting learn the art in a non-intimidating environment. The coach and members are always friendly, patient and helpful.

I first went to Sweet Z's with a friend who had heard of the gym. I am an obviously uncoordinated mess of a non-athlete, but everyone at the gym was incredibly accepting and willing to work with me at my pace. Though I was not able to sit up unassisted or sit down without cringing for over a week after my first session, I went back and became a regular for over two years. I moved to LA at the beginning of this year, and Sweet Z's is honestly one of the things I miss most about home. I highly recommend Sweet Z's, the people are amazing, the workout kicks your ass, and it is a lot of fun.

Zach is such a great instructor - not only does he know his stuff professionally but he also has a wonderful combination of pushing you while also being incredibly encouraging. I was never in better shape than when I went to Sweet Z's. I would still be going there if I hadn't moved out of state.

Zach is an excellent coach. I could tell from day one that I was training with someone who has years of experience and is quite passionate about boxing. The workouts are always challenging. It's a great place to start training in boxing or self defense.

Beginners get excellent training and advanced boxers have the choice to spar.

No matter your level, there are always opportunities to push yourself to the limit and before you know it, the hour is over!
