I walked into Glory MMA over a year ago and my experience has been amazing. I started off just doing the GloryFit classes, they are amazing cardio classes taught by amazing coaches. Each coach has a different style so no two classes are ever the same. The coaches work with you to keep you up to speed but also challenge you every class. It’s a great atmosphere and definitely a great value.

Awesome awesome first experience with the place. People were cool, nice and open, very laid back but still professional and organized. I will be taking classes for sure. Very cool experience to say the least! I’m addicted!

Derrick C.

I can’t recommend Glory MMA enough. After trying multiple gyms in Kansas City I found my home at Glory. The level of instruction is first class from BJJ and MMA to the fitness programs. Also I can’t say enough about the staff, their desire to see their students improve is amazing. Once you walk in to the building and are met with the energy of Brian Harris you know it will be a gym for you.
