I dropped in for the whole month of September while I was in KC for work and I could not have picked a better spot! I did tons of research on Crossfit Boxes in the area and wanted to make sure I found one that fit where I am at in my Crossfit journey. I am so glad I decided on KCI. I spent the whole month just at this one! First of all, everyone from the coaches to the other athletes could not have been more welcoming. From the first visit, Nick made me feel right at home. All the coaches were absolutely stellar and even helped me hit a new deadlift PR (255lb!). I truly felt like I had been coming here for months. Im only 5 months in with this whole Crossfit thing and KCI made me feel so welcome. Huge shout out to Lance, Teresa, guy that looks like Clark Kent, and of course Doug. They all made me feel like I was part of the family. If you work out with Doug, youll know who Doug is. Hes pretty awesome. I will definitely drop in again if I end up back in the area.
I dropped in at KCI CrossFit. Great small gym with very friendly vibe. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in town. I thoroughly enjoyed the lack of mask policing. I wouldn’t be surprised to see this gym grow into a larger space soon.
I have never stepped into a gym before that instantly makes you feel at home. After moving here from the east coast, I reached out to do a trial class and almost immediately got a response inviting me in. Not only is the staff friendly, but I was instantly welcomed by the participants in each class I went to, and invited to have breakfast, go to bonfires, to a wonderful church, and so on. I cant rave enough about this community, the people truly make the place.
Walking in with long-standing shoulder pain, I was skeptical that the workouts could help. I figured the pain would intensify and Id have a great excuse to drop out. But after some one-on-one instruction and pushing myself, the pain has started to drop, and Ive been able to increase my mobility and add muscle mass. Ive always been tall and lean, never able to put on any weight outside the holidays, so that parts fun too!The atmosphere is better than I could have asked for. The workouts are challenging and fulfilling. The entire community at KCI CrossFit is friendly and supportive, no matter what your fitness level may be.
My decision to try Crossfit was born of necessity. Faced with a debilitating form of arthritis that is rapidly damaging my joints. (Knees, elbows, hands, feet and spine, severe. Shoulders and hips moderate.I could barely move anymore. So I began researching different types of exercise genres. I wanted something that would improve flexibility and increase strength. For me it looked like crossfit would work best.So I checked my ego at the door and called KCI CROSSFIT. I set up an appointment to check it out and met Nick, and then Christine. They introduced me to crossfit and helped me to feel welcome and encouraged me to focus on fundamentals first. This was just what I needed.So many changes in such a short time!! There way of programming is focused and effective. I am seeing constant improvements in both strength, endurance and mobility.My body shape and tone have visibly changed. It is great to work out with such excellent coaches that are so invested in each and every athlete in our club.I am motivated more than ever and look forward to seeing what I can achieve personally.
The coaches are knowledgeable and focused on helping each athlete grow and improve. The community is wonderful—welcoming and motivating. All skill levels worked together well. Will definitely be back for more great workouts!
When I joined KCI Crossfit in July I decided to make 2020 the healthiest year of my life. Nick, Christine, and the coaches have allowed me to achieve that goal within 4 months. I feel mentally and physically healthier than I have ever been. I have never been apart of a gym that has as many resources and supporting community as KCI Crossfit. 5 stars 10/10!
I highly recommend KCI CrossFit, my husband and I have been going for about a year and a half and absolutely love it. I look forward to going there after work everyday. The coaches and community are amazing. Before CrossFit, I had never touched a barbell, everyone was so helpful and nice, no one ever made me feel bad about needing help. I also love being able to track my progress on the app and see what workouts are coming up.Check KCI out, definitely more than just a gym!
KCI has incredible coaches who get to know you and your fitness level starting on your first day and work with you towards your goals. Having never done CrossFit before, I was apprehensive and couldnt be happier with the coaches, community, and atmosphere and continue to feel supported as I learn. If you want a fun but challenging workout customized to you, come check KCI out.
KCI CrossFit is such a great community! The staff is extremely professional and experts in their field. They have a commitment to safety and mobility but they are always challenging me to push myself.We have three kids under the age of 6 and I was really worried about bringing them. I actually have not been to a gym since they were born because I couldn’t make it work but they LOVE being at KCI! The community at KCI is so great with kids. It’s so cool to see how my kids have started to take an interest in fitness just from watching us work out. They are jumping on boxes and doing pull ups!I love the progress I’ve made and the changes I see in my body. My first goal was to do a pull-up. My first pull up was caught on camera by the owners and they sent me the video! Love this place!!
After moving to Kansas City about 4 years ago, we struggled finding a new CrossFit gym that was like our old one in Arizona. After a few months, we found KCI CrossFit and never left! The best part about KCI is the Community. Everyone (literally, EVERYONE!) is cheering you on whether youre new to CrossFit, or have been coming for years. Its like getting to achieve goals you never thought you could, with an entire family there to support you through big and little accomplishments.I worked out here my entire pregnancy and bounced back almost immediately! Its not about the weight loss for me, its about building back my strength and self confidence after my body went through a lot of changes having a baby.I love this place! So much more than just a place to workout. Its like a second home for my husband and I. :)
I hadn’t exercised in any way for 6 years before I started at KCI. I had had kids and just couldn’t get it together enough to making working out a priority. I was very intimidated about starting but Nick did the Flight School thing with me and it was amazing. The people are fun, and encouraging. Everyone, no matter their fitness level can have fun and be successful here. The coaches are world class. I can’t say enough good things about all of them! Christine is so good at making sure you are working safely, and progressing. I’ve been here going on 2 years and I feel a million times better than when I started. I’m stronger, happier, I have more energy, and I’ve made great friends. I couldn’t ask for more!
Great place and great people! All the instructors, and even the people that have been coming to this gym care about you and treat you like they have know you for a while. They always have somebody to lead the WOD, and provide any type of feedback that you might need to motivate you, and / or improve your form.
KCI CrossFit is superb! My wife and I have been members for 2 years now and we wouldnt go anywhere else. The staff are all exceptional people who are willing to go above and beyond to tailor to individual needs. This is a place with integrity and a passion for helping people, not just get in shape but to enrich their lives. These values are not just limited to the staff, this is a place where the members care about each other. At KCI CrossFit youre not just joining a gym, youre becoming part of a family.
Had great experience at KCI when dropping in whilst in town.Great facility and very friendly and accommodating people.I am looking forward to coming back the next time I am in town.
The coaches are well-versed in group management. Every coach takes the time to see an athlete move, evaluate, and make adjustments. The atmosphere is always friendly and inviting, while the facility is organized and clean.
Dropped in for a Thanksgiving Day WOD...nice, clean facility, friendly folks, enthusiastic and encouraging coach, flexible programming with lots of scalability with just as much value given to the scaled options! Great box to drop into!
Ive been at KCI Crossfit for 3 years. I have never stuck with a workout program this long! I am physically the strongest and most in shape I have been my whole life. I would also say the emotional benefits of the environment and KCI community have been just as catalytic as the physical benefits. Here you will be cheered on, encouraged, and motivated. You will find friendships and coaches that help motivate you and hold you accountable. Best decision Ive ever made.
I love working out at KCI! The coaches here care and want you to succeed by not trying to do too much too soon. Also, they are very good at observing your lifts and ensuring that you are doing the lift correctly. The people are very welcoming and theres a strong camaraderie.
Love this place and the owners!
Ive been a KCI Member for several years. The coaches and members at KCI are good people. No matter how athletic you are (or not), they encourage you and help you to achieve your best individual level of fitness. Crossfit is a striving sport. It is so varied that I have never lacked opportunities to keep improving my stamina, flexibility, agility, or strength and that is what keeps it interesting!
Open box with friendly members
I have been working out at KCI CrossFit for 90 days now and I love it! The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. They are able modify each workout to suit anyones needs regardless of age or ability. You can tell a lot of work goes into planning each week. Many of the skills are new to me, but I am always able to ask questions and easily get help. I came from a large family gym and thought I would be too intimidated to switch to a more specialized workout, but the change has made all the difference for me. Each day is a new workout and a new challenge. I look forward to my workouts instead of just getting them done!
I would highly recommend KCI Crossfit! I actually want to get up and go at 5:15am. Everyone is super supportive and not judgmental. If you can’t do a movement it can be scaled for you. If you are looking for a change and challenge in your workout routine then you should check out KCI Crossfit!
AWESOME experience at KCI CrossFit. I dropped in while visiting KC and needed to get my 17.2 workout in. After emailing KCI, they responded very quickly and offered some specific times that fit my schedule and also offered to judge for me. It was EXACTLY what I hope to experience when I visit a new CF Box Nick Prohaska and another member I interacted with, Doug, were awesome. Great testament to the CF community. Good on ya KCI CrossFit and see you again next trip to KC!
I am not an athlete at all but was wanting a workout with instruction, I’m not great at doing things on my own! From day one, I was welcomed and treated with respect from coaches to other athletes. I don’t get to go as often as I would like but I definitely recommend!
Weve been at KCI for over a year. The coaches are great and are very well rounded in their skills and approach in helping you be the best athlete that you are capable of becoming. Also the community at KCI is second to none. Great group of members!
I can honestly not say enough good things about KCI! Its a new workout everyday which keeps it interesting and fun! The coaches are second to none. They focus on technique and are great at understanding what each individual is capable of and needs. Im so grateful to be apart of KCI.. Its so much more than a gym. Its a community of like minded indivuals who are kind and encouraging. Ive not only become more healthy and fit Ive gained new friends in the process!
The KCI CrossFit staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. They are great at encouraging everyone and helping members with skill development. I love that every workout is different & members become friends!
Ive been a member at KCI CrossFit since they opened their doors. There are many reasons Ive been there since day one. The coaching, the programming and the nutrition advice are all top notch. However, the main reason Ive stayed is the community. I would recommend anyone looking to improve their overall health and fitness checkout KCI CrossFit.
KCI Crossfit is a great place to be yourself and achieve anything you want while being you. The staff and gym family are very warm and inviting. Your only regret at KCI Crossfit will be missing a workout.
I have been a member of KCI Crossfit for a little over two years and highly recommend KCI for anyone looking to enhance their fitness training. The programming is excellent and the quality of coaching cant be matched. The bonus is the membership which is a very close knit community. I look forward to training each day for improving my fitness and being challenged by friends.
Prior to joining KCI Crossfit over 2 years ago, I’d never stuck with any form of exercise on a regular basis because it was something that I didn’t enjoy. This place completely changed that! I’d always been a bit intimidated by gyms, but the coaches and members are welcoming and encouraging and truly some of the nicest people I’ve met. I’ve learned that when you focus on what your body can DO and not just the number on the scale, the results come. It doesn’t matter if you’re currently out of shape or already have a regular exercise routine- all of the workouts can be modified for your fitness level. Anyone can do it!
I joined KCI CrossFit when I had not worked out for about a year and I knew I needed to make a change. Never having done a CrossFit workout, I contacted Nick and the next day I was at the gym. They have great programming and can tailor it you fit your needs. When I stated, I remember looking at their beginner workouts and thinking not a chance. Now, only 4 months later Im looking at the advanced workouts and think. Soon... I couldnt be happier. Contact KCI CrossFit and get started.
KCI Crossfit is THE place to go to if youre looking for great workouts. The coaches are fantastic and very helpful and the other members are incredibly friendly. This is the best gym Ive ever been to.
It is a great gym. It has many serious Crossfitters present, but the main focus of the gym seems to be on the fitness transformation from novice to fit. If someone has never been athletic or was at one point and would like to return to a high level of fitness then KCI CrossFit is the place to begin.
I stopped by over the weekend while in town for a work trip and was welcomed with open arms. Big shout out Nick for having me and Luke for putting us through an awesome workout!
Great group of people! I was a drop-in from Nashville and felt welcomed by everyone and challenged by the WOD. If youre looking for a CrossFit gym in KC, look no further.
One of the best coaching staff around. They truly care about YOU as a person then an athlete. They will bend over backwards to make you the best you!
Excellent coaching with knowledge in Olympic lifting techniques. Programming follows CrossFit philosophies well. Clean facility. The best group of athletes and coaches!!
I was in town for business and dropped in KCI. The coaches were great from the initial phone call through the class, extremely welcoming. Great class and atmosphere. Highly recommended.
Love KCI! Great community and awesome workouts! Nick and Christine run a great box for all fitness levels!
Fantastic owners/trainers! If your goal is to get leaner and stronger you have come to the right place. Need a community to surround yourself with to meet your fitness goals? KCI Crossfit is the place for you!
Ive been working out in gyms throughout the US for nearly 30 years and the team at KCI Crossfit is the best Ive been around. Theyre competent, supportive, and know how to train members of all fitness levels. Thank you Nick and team...Ive never felt better!
Awesome gym and phenomenal coaching. Great for beginners or experienced athletes.
By far the best box in the KC area! Friendly and welcoming environment with the most professional coaches! Perfect box for any Military personnel stationed at Leavenworth.
KCI is amazingly wonderful. Couldnt ask for better coaches or community. My husband and I started our CrossFit journey almost two years ago and havent looked back.
Dropped in. Felt very welcome. Great WOD. Coach was solid and corrected me on a few things.Would come back if I was back in town for sure.
Really quality coaching here, I learned a lot in my drop ins there. Great atmosphere .
I started at KCI Crossfit a little over a year ago. I have been doing CrossFit for several years, and this is the 4th box of which I have been a member. I came into KCI Crossfit right after shoulder surgery, and the coaches were great with helping me modify everything and get back to normal. They take the time to work with each individual’s ability level. Also, a great aspect of KCI Crossfit is the community. It is more than just a gym where you show up and work out. You have people who hold you accountable and who become your friends. I would definitely recommend you check it out!
KCI facility, programming, coaching, education, and community are absolutely dialed in! Full range of coaching knowledge to help a beginner get started the proper way, all the way up to competition coaching, and everything in between!
I just have to thank the KCI coaches, I speak and understand some English and they all have a lot of patience with me. Thank you KCI.
Great environment, friendly people and coaches that pay attention to your needs and your current development.
Extremely welcoming community, with a wealth of knowledge. KCI Crossfit (Barbell Club) has been a great addition to my regiment.
The coaches at KCI are fantastic and make the workouts fit anyone that is there. They teach proper technique over doing more weight, really appreciate them and the whole crew there.
KCI Crossfit is an amazing Crossfit box from the welcoming staff, coaching staff, equipment and programming - this place is top notch.
This gym is amazing! The coaches and athletes are so supportive, friendly, and knowledgeable, I ALWAYS look forward to going even when I know the WOD is going to kick my a$$! The workouts are always different and the coaches post them every Sunday for the entire week. One thing that stands out with this gym in comparison to other Crossfit gyms is how family-friendly they are. If you have little ones theres an area the kiddos can all hang out and you can still see them :) You absolutely will not regret dropping in to KCI CROSSFIT!
Great coaching, well equipped and very welcoming to drop ins. Highly recommend!
Awesome gym with very friendly staff and members. Its a very inviting community!
So grateful for KCI. Great coaching! Cool people.
Great coaches and encouraging atmosphere!
Good gym and nice coach !!
Amazing family!
