As someone who’s never joined a gym or liked to exercise this gym is a fantastic place to start your journey…we have been members since 2021 and attend the morning workouts because they’re so well planned and engaging! We also enjoy the crew that comes every morning and have made lasting relationships with other members and instructors! Thanks City Gym for providing such an outstanding experience! Morning crew in the picture below!

Me and my boyfriend have been a City Gym member for over a year now. The gym is well-equipped for our workouts and the staff members are super friendly and willing to help if needed. Can’t recommend City Gym enough if you are looking for a gym in the Waldo area.

Good gym, but missing some equipment that would be very nice to have. Specifically a hack squat and hip abduction/adduction machine. The music also tends to be a terrible selection for a workout.

I can’t speak more highly of City Gym! The staff is so caring and makes a point to remember each individual. It gives the feel of a family, which is hard to come by in a gym that has many members. The cleanliness is top notch and they are always working to make the experience phenomenal for each member.

City Gym is my happy placeπŸ’š

My husband Micah and I joined City Gym in January 2021 after our previous gym closed. We toured and were greeted with kind enthusiasm by the staff. We joined immediately and it was the best decision. I love the 5:30 am classes, City Strike, yoga, Zumba… really everything! All the trainers and staff are highly skilled and knowledgeable, and are also just amazing humans. This is not just a gym, but a community. Love City Gym!

Was traveling for work and spent four days in Kansas City. Found that City Gym KC was open early so I checked it out. They have a very friendly and helpful staff. Great selection of free weights, machines, and cardio equipment. Very reasonable daily rates. Will be my gym of choice when traveling to KC!

Edit: See response from City Gym below! Thanks for the change it’s very much appreciated! *leaving the original review just for context but changed to 5⭐️

Gym is solid, really enjoyed going there but won’t be returning as a member.
Got sent out for a 6 month deployment and wanted to remain a member for when I got back, so I sent an email asking about pausing my membership while I was away. Told it was $20 a month but only up to 3 months. Membership wouldn’t end until April so really for 5 months it would be the same as repaying the enrollment fee.. but either way was told my only option is to cancel and repay the enrollment fee upon returning. Feel it’s more of a reasonable request rather than a special favor to accommodate a military member. 2 other gyms I’ve been a part of in the past had no issues doing this as long as I showed them proof of the trip.

Greatly enjoying this gym so far. Very friendly staff and communal atmosphere. It has everything you need but a seated/standing calf and back hyperextension machine would really round it off. They’ve done a fantastic job with the space they have but these could be easy/valuable additions in my opinion. Wishlist aside, I’d certainly recommend this gym to anyone in the area.

My husband and I moved to KC in 2020 and joined this gym because it’s close to our home. We are in our 50’s and have been members at a few different gyms in our lives. This is by far the very best! Great atmosphere - bright and very clean. The employees are professional, knowledgeable and super helpful. Now on to the classes. . . WOW! Absolutely amazing workouts for all different levels. AND so much fun. The instructors are very encouraging and inclusive, offering variations for all levels of ability. Thank you Cindy B, Justine and Emily for keeping us motivated and helping us become so strong!

This truly is a family atmosphere. We love CGKC!

I’m not a member but popped in to take some yoga classes from Sedona. I love the atmosphere, classes & equipment options, and if I didn’t have another gym, I’d join. I’m a swimmer too, so not in my future. But I will highly recommend it to anyone considering it. Great job!

This gym is everything you could want from a local gym. Friendly staff and trainers, plenty of equipment and turf space, as well as tons of classes.

I recently trained with Ryan Bade and it has changed the way I will workout forever. I had never taken working out too seriously, but decided to take action. I worked out with Ryan 5 times a week for 3 months. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I'm more confident building my own workout routines and have proper form for the various compound lifts. If you're thinking about finally jumping in, I highly recommend Ryan!

Joined this gym during the thick of the pandemic last year - it has been a huge boost, both physically and mentally, getting through the challenges of day-to-day life while navigating through a pandemic. The staff is so friendly and welcoming when I come in the mornings before work; fellow members are always courteous and everyone has plenty of space and time to get their workouts in. I love that this place always has a positive, local vibe, and they really do appreciate their members and the community as a whole. Machines, dumbbells, and showers are top-notch as well. Keep up the great work!

There is a strong feeling of community and you are always greeted with a warm welcome. I have made many friends at City Gym through all the great class offerings

I've been a member of City Gym for about 3 1/2 years now and can't say enough good things about it. I currently live in Overland Park but drive about 20+ minutes out of the way (past many closer, more conveniently located gyms) to continue coming here because it stands out so much in comparison to your typical chain gym.

The machines, equipment, shower facilities, etc are all top notch and I hardly ever have to wait for a machine regardless of what time of day it is.
The variety of classes and great people just can't be beat.

City Gym is a fantastic local gym with a wide range of class offerings. The space and the equipment are well maintained and the people that work and work out there are all very friendly. There is a strong sense of community. For me, the class offerings are the best part. They provide a great workout in a short period of time. The trainers really care about the attendees' improvement and offer advice on technique and modifications. Overall just a great place to belong.

Just wanted to share a positive experience with City Gym. I realized today that I was being double charged for my membership. I called in and talked with Kristin about the issue. She said she was going to look into it and email me information within 30 minutes! She did and when she emailed she told me I had been double charged for the last 3 months, she refunded all of those charges and said she was putting a calendar reminder for next month to check my account and make sure the issue was resolved when they bill my card again. Anyways it was a great experience and I love that the team there is so committed to doing what's right and helping their clients!

Also if you need a personal training I've been working with Dustin Taber and he is excellent. Very worth the money and very engaged with you as an individual and what you want to accomplish.

The gym is full of middle aged white people (hence the price) who are there to shed beer guts. If you’re a hardcore lifter then this ain’t your place. It’s a nice atmosphere if you like calm workouts, but if you want to bang out then it’s a no go. A traditional gym is loud and intense, but this one sounds like the inside of a fancy restaurant. There’s also no designated deadlift area, instead there are machines upon machines. Most of the trainers look like their puppy just got mauled by an 18 wheeler and I saw like two that actually looked like they lifted. If you’re a true bro you’ll skip this place, but overall it’s a pleasant place.

WOW. Just WOW!!!

I have been a member of many gyms around the Kansas City area, but I wasn’t happy with them or my choice to support their business model. Not only that, but I wasn’t showing up because I never really felt like I wanted to be there.

I was looking for something different, something unique. I wanted to feel like I was actually part of a community. I wanted a gym where I felt like I belonged...

Thank you City Gym!!!

- For being everything I have ever wanted in a gym and more. (I honestly didn’t think that was possible)
- For providing state-of-the-art equipment
- For having the best classes with equally incredible instructors
- For, most importantly, a space that exudes the true heart of Kansas City
- And finally thank you for helping me be the best version of myself... authentic, fierce, and healthy.

I sure do love City Gym! I never thought I would feel this comfortable and happy in a gym. The staff is great and non-intimidating, and the other people that go to the gym are just normal people getting their workout in. No preening, no odd behavior ... you know what I mean. The facility is top notch. New, always clean equipment with lots of extras (e.g., sliders, yoga blocks, lots of TRX stations, med balls, kettlebells, etc.). The classes are also great with a wide variety, at good times, and not too large (but also not too small). I have been going four years, lost a ton of weight, and, most importantly, completely changed my perspective on how exercise benefits you waaaayyy more than just burning calories. Try City Gym--you will love it.

I don't live in KC, but I was home visiting my parents and needed a place to work out, which can be a tough needle to thread. This place was perfect. It's $10 for a single workout, facilities are awesome. There are plenty of free weights (for example - 4 or 5 squat racks most of which are convertible for benching) and tons of foam rollers, mats, stretch bands, etc, plus lots of room to use them. I can't speak to peak hours (I went at 10am on a Friday), but there were only a handful of people in the whole establishment, meaning there was no waiting for equipment. Most of all, though, the woman at the front desk (wish I could remember her name) was very nice and helpful. They had towel service at no extra cost, she offered to watch my bag since I forgot to bring a lock, and she recommended a coffee shop two doors down where I got a protein shake after I was done.

If you're from out of town a need to catch a quick workout, this is the spot. Wish there was one in every city.

I've been to a couple gyms before but I always felt intimidated and judged by the really fit people working out there. This was not the case here; I felt very welcomed by the staff along with everyone else here. I've yet to see a stereotypical meathead type, instead I see lots of normal people of all shapes and sizes working out and getting healthy. I worked out with a trainer (Dustin) for a month who was excellent at not only showing me lifting techniques buy also explaining why he was having me do them and how to keep progressing on my own. After a month and a half I've lost 20 lbs and am almost a quarter of the way to my goal. For the first time ever, I love going to the gym and it's 100% because of the acceptance here.

Having turned 50, and not being in a gym in over 30 years, apparently I was saved from the disappointment of other gyms. What I HAD done was live a life that let me become 100lbs overweight, with high blood pressure. I wanted to do 'something' to change that and kept telling myself to find someone to uncomplicate the nutrition information to eat properly, and find a trainer to get a good workout designed for me.

A story popped up on Facebook about Hailee, her gym and a program called the 'Real 30'. It sounded to good to be true, learning nutrition AND a workout routine (yes, I'm a bit of skeptic). But after a 20 minute phone call with Hailee about how it works, what it involves, and what she and her trainers promise to teach and guide us through, I was convinced it 'might' work for me. 'I' (and subsequently my wife with me) would have to be the ones to make it work. And Hailee was so confident in their program, she promised us a refund if we weren't happy at the end.

At the completion of the 30 day program, I had done two group H.I.I.T classes, and one 30-minute lifting session with a my trainer per week. We had learned the Paleo eating lifestyle and followed it completely. I lost 24lbs, and my blood pressure was down 12 points. Five months later, I'm now down 45 lbs.

I work out with my personal trainer twice a week, and do a H.I.I.T class. When a 50 year, over weight guy can walk in to a group class with a bunch of people probably half his age who have stayed in shape, and no one feels uncomfortable... That's the atmosphere that Hailee and her team have brought to this gym.

When I can work with a trainer who makes me feel comfortable enough to share the fact that I'm scared I'll injure myself because it's been so long, and she explains the fundamentals, helps me understand how proper form rather than trying to use brute strength will help me build muscle faster, that's what keeps me coming back three times per week.

When our original Real 30 group can't make it to one of the regularly scheduled classes, they choose a night during the week when they can get together and do their own workout class. That's the 'community' spirit I don't think you'll find elsewhere.

You can get a free 'week' pass to City Gym. I highly recommend you try it. If you're 'new' like I was, and don't know exactly how to get started, call the Launch Coordinator. As my wife said, it's not a 'sales tour', it helped her understand everything they offer, and what would work for her (having now lost 32 lbs and three sizes herself!)

Just don't do it if you're under contract somewhere else, because you'll regret you ever signed it... :)

I have really enjoyed my experience at City Gym based on the type of classes, the cleanliness of the facility, the great condition of the equipment, the management team and staff. the owner takes pride in providing quality services and making the gym a great place. The optional program we joined really helped get my eating habits to a better and sustainable place. The classes have helped give me energy and promoted positive things in all aspects of my life. Thanks City Gym!

City Gym KC has helped me overcome my fear of gyms, exercise, and the intimidating and ever-changing world of "getting healthy." After trying to walk into other gyms and immediately feeling like a loser and SO out of my element, I had given up on this world. And when Hailee Bland Walsh assured me this was a different place with a different attitude, I gave her a skeptical look and went in expecting to have the same, old experience. I am a convert! I cannot express how grateful I am to City Gym and the staff for helping educate me, working gently with me, creating small and large successes, and being my biggest cheerleaders. I recommend this place to my friends and family all the time. I drive 30 minutes each way to this gym; there are others closer but none that provide the service, care, commitment, and community that this place does. I highly recommend getting involved in one of their 30 day or 90 day programs where they help you think through food, the science of working out, and provide all the tools for success. I also find that having a personal trainer has been a BIG key to my success and continued improvement (Thank you, Hailee!).

City Gym is more than a gym. It's a home for health.

It's not about competition here, it's about motivation.
It's not about vanity, it's about health.
It's not about big box corporate policies, it's about respect and flexibility for members.
It's not about intimidation, it's about inclusiveness and care.

There's no better gym in KC. Period.

I have known Hailee for years and what she has accomplished is truly amazing. This isn't the big box store type of gym. Everyone who works there is very friendly and always willing to help. After time you can even tell they remember you and are vested in your experience in the gym and your overall health. Also, unlike many gyms, it's not so sticky and hot making your work out experience miserable. Instead it is impeccably clean and always a comfortable temperature. There is plenty of equipment and you never feel you have to wait long to use it. In my experience this is the best gym I've been to and the best kept secret in KC!

I tried several gyms in an attempt to find one where I felt like I belonged. It was crazy how hard that venture turned out to be. I spent a lot of money on fees and contracts....and barely any time in these gyms I joined. City Gym turned that around....now I sign no contracts, experience no hidden fees, and am at the gym more often than I have been in my life! It was also important to me that a gym I joined be all inclusive, open-minded, welcoming and kind. City Gym's owner and staff nail that. The cherry on top is the aesthetics of the space and the top of the line equipment. Hands-down the best gym in the area in my opinion and I always recommend it to any friends looking to join a gym or switch!

Going to City Gym is much like going to Cheers where everybody knows your name, from the staff to the members. I look forward to going to the gym as it will not be an anonymous experience and can be very social if you want it to be. Everyone is encouraging to each other and it's a positive atmosphere.

The classes are great and at convenient times. My favorite are the spin classes where I know I will get a fantastic workout.

The personal trainers are wonderful, will help you reach your goal, and are very knowledgeable. I've been seeing Josh for two years and I'm at a point I would never have been able to reach on my own or thought possible. He pushes me and I just get stronger and stronger.

I highly recommend City Gym and should be tried before you head out to a cold, big box gym.

My decision to join City Gym was one of the best I made. It's local and the people are more than personable. Unlike most gyms, they don't make you sign a 6 month contract that ties you down. They allow you to go month-by-month, which is definitely a perk. Having all the classes included in my membership has really helped me grow towards my personal goals. I love that they offer classes at all hours of the day because it allows me to work out either before work or after work depending on my schedule. The trainers are great at educating you on form and fitness. You really can't beat it.

Having gone to City Gym since it first opened, I have to say this place really is different. Sure it helps that it's in walking distance from my home, but really what keeps me going back is the people. I am not a "fitness buff" and I have been put off in the past from places because of the feeling of not fitting in, but at City Gym, the owner and the staff and the trainers welcome one and all - and don't ask me where I've been as much as welcome me back. And of course the fact that there is no contract, the classes are included and the hours are ideal, makes it "easy" to get there. Spin classes are my favorite and the upcoming expansion of the gym, it's only going to get better. I have to comment on the aesthetics of the place, it's just a nice place, the look of the gym is reflective of the experience. Highly recommend.

I joined City Gym initially because I had a groupon. I only planned on staying a month but that was over a year ago. It is more than a gym - it is like a little community. I have learned how to work out properly in a noncompetitive, positive environment. The owner and the trainers truly care about my well-being and have helped me prevent injury. The class schedule works for me and offers unique classes you cannot get anywhere else. It is never crowded.

This is a great neighborhood gym that offers training, staff, and overall wellness you'd expect in a big city and that you won't find elsewhere. I can't wait to see the expansion and am grateful for the opportunity to work out in such a great place.

City Gym is great. I always get a great workout at all of their classes, and the instructors constantly push you to reach your maximum potential. The classes can be a little crowded at times but I am hoping that the new expansion will alleviate that problem. I cannot say enough great things about this gym. The staff is super, and they are also very involved in the community.

I joined City Gym about 6 months after they opened. I was immediately impressed with the staff, facilities, classes and new equipment. I came from a larger gym that I thought had everything, but quickly noticed the City Gym had everything and more! It's much more than just a gym to me, but a close-knit community. I've enjoyed all of the classes, especially boot camp, which takes place in the back parking lot. I am so excited to experience the new, expanded space. I can't imagine going anywhere else!

City Gym is by far the best gym I've been a member of in Kansas City. After previously using some of the "big" name gyms in the area I decided to give City Gym a shot, and I'm glad I did. The staff is very friendly and always greets you by name, including the owner Hailee. It is more than just a gym. They are committed to helping you achieve your goals whether that be for weight loss, increasing strength, or just increasing your overall well-being. The atmosphere is intimate but not crammed, all the equipment is new, and the place is always clean. They have a wide array of classes from zumba to spin to yoga and all the classes are free with membership (as far as I know). On top of classes they frequently have programs to help you achieve weight loss goals and aid in making a healthy lifestyle change including menu guides, grocery lists, recipes, one-on-one assessments to track progress, and work-out/lifting guides. Whether you are looking for classes, health improvement programs, or just a place to work-out, City Gym is the place to go.

City Gym is a place that I'm so proud to be a part of. We work hard, love our members & care about our community. It's a place that welcomes new people from all walks of life to come together & be healthy. The gym is beautiful, clean, easily accessible, state of the art but not at all pretentious. And best of all, City Gym offers a way for everyone to be involved - whether it be lifting, cardio, our fabulous fitness classes or anything else we offer! Joining is sort of a no brainer at this point, isn't it?

Being somewhat new to the fitness industry, the absolute best decision I made for both my business and my life was to become a part of City Gym. The members and the staff have become my friends and my family. City Gym is like no other workout facility that I have ever been to, it is without pretension and judgement. Everyone there wants to see everyone else succeed. I am so excited to grow with City Gym and I can't wait to see what's next!!!

I have been a member for about two years. Great staff, motivation, and atmosphere. They are currently expanding the size of the gym and I can't wait to see what comes next. You can't find a better gym than City Gym. Plus, the group classes are free and they are well worth it.

When working with them this past month it was clear that their team has great knowledge and passionately commits themselves to serving the health community. They have nothing but THE BEST equipment and staff.

It's so much more than a "gym membership". It's a holistic investment in your health and wellbeing that City Gym helps you manage every step of the way.
