So much fun! They offer HIIT style workouts with set days of the week dedicated to resistance, cardio, or hybrid style sessions.

Too busy to go to the gym? Not sure what to do when you get there? Need a little accountability?…read moreWant to have fun while you get healthier and relieve stress? 9Round is the gym for you. Personally, no other gym has worked for me the way 9Round has. It's something I can find the time for, truly enjoy, and KNOW it works. Even just 3 times per week leaves me feeling so much stronger, healthier, and happier. There's nothing that relieves stress quite like kicking and punching the bags. 9Round is a 30 minute full-body, kickboxing-themed circuit workout. There are a total of 9 stations or "rounds." Each round is an exercise that lasts 3 minutes. In between each round there is a 30 second "break" during which a trainer will yell out an exercise like jumping jacks, wall sits, lunges, etc. There are typically two trainers on the floor at all times. The trainers help teach and motivate you! 9Round membership comes with hand wraps, gloves, and a heart monitor to monitor your heart rate and calories burned during your workout. With no class times, you can workout whatever time is best for you! 9Round workouts are unlike any other. And 9Round Downtown KC is unlike any other 9Round I've experienced. Family-man and Owner, Rashad and his team work tirelessly to bring us fun, energizing workouts that actually WORK! They foster an inclusive, supportive workout community. And your first workout is free! Come try it out! What do you have to lose?

I was skeptical before trying 9Round because it's been a while since I've been in the gym. However,…read morewhen I showed up for my session Rashad was extremely welcoming and encouraging throughout the rounds - he even completed some of the exercises alongside me! I tend to get bored of doing the same exercises so having something different to do (and working different parts of my body) at each station was perfect for me. And if you're worried it will be too intense, don't be. You have the freedom to go at your pace and the exercises are not too strenuous. I really loved the atmosphere and the music kept me pumped. If you're looking for a different workout experience, 9Round is the way to go. If you're ready to put in the work, it's definitely worth it.

Moved here recently from Germany and consider myself a gym rat finding a place that has the right machines and high enough weights was the first thing on my to do list. Let me tell you this gym is awesome!!!! Dumbbells up to 120lb, pre loaded barbells (perfect for the biceps drop set) or machines for joint safety everything in there. I didn't try the classes yet, but I can tell the trainers know what they doing to make your fat melt. It is not crazy expensive like the other gyms I saw and the best thing IT IS 24 HOURS!!!!

This is by far my favorite workout ever and after four years of KC living, I keep coming back for…read moremore! Bar Method is a high intensity, low impact class that makes you sweat and shake during class and makes you so sore the next day. The whole concept revolves around contracting your muscle to the point of exhaustion (hello shakes!) and then stretching and lengthening your warm muscles immediately after. Bar method was designed and vetted by physical therapists - and the studio floor is the same as a gymnast floor - so it is awesome for folks with joint issues of any age! The structure of the class is always the same - warm up includes an upper body workout with weights, followed by push ups and tricep dips. Do not let the light weights fool you- the exercises and reps make 2 and 3 lb weights feel like 20's! Next comes the meat and potatoes of Bar - LEGS AND BOOTY! Calf raises, 3 grueling sets of Thigh and a next-day-waddle-worthy booty workout. Stretches at the bar and in the floor are incorporated throughout. Finally, Abs and a little back dancing (channel your inner Call On Me music video)... Oh the instructors are ALL amazing, encouraging and each have their own way of empowering you to push through your sets even though you want to stop. The classes are personalized since the instructors know your name and call out corrections and encouragements throughout the class. They are also hands on to ensure you are in the best form possible! Music sets are also awesome and are constantly changing for fun varieties! Overall, in case you can't tell, I am a fan of Bar Method and encourage everyone to at least try it out once! It might look like you are barely moving but I promise it is a HARD workout! The method strengthens your posture, creates longer leaner muscles and improves flexibility! No dance experience required by the way - I am not a graceful or flexible person but I love how strong I feel when I leave class (and how sore my body feels too)! Come on in and shake it out!!!

Going into this studio for the first time, I had no idea what to expect. I don't keep up with the…read moreseemingly endless workout styles out there, and having never been graceful, like ballet dancers, this wouldn't have even made it on my list. Over the years, I've tried pilates, Insanity, yoga, and random YouTube dance videos; and only yoga seems to stick, although the results I get with yoga are more mental than anything. With Bar Method, I started seeing quick results. Basically you are doing small movements that fine-tune specific muscles, followed by intense stretches to give you an overall leaner look. The exercises are safe for everyone. What have I got to lose? Plus they ran a birthday special the day I came, so I decided to commit to 1 month. Initially, it was challenging to follow the structured routine - I was doing the plank wrong, or I slouched too much, or a slew of other reasons. Fear not, the instructors take the time to learn your name and will instruct or come around to adjust you. In a 60-minute class, you get to target your arms, shoulders, thighs, legs, glutes, back, abs...so basically you will be sore the next day. No doubt about it! My jello-y triceps scream at me every time. Truth be told, halfway through, I want to give up and crawl into a ball. But I keep pushing, because everyone else is working hard. The instructors are well-rehearsed in the routines. They are exceptionally toned and charismatic. After taking 8 classes, I can honestly see some definition in my arms and legs. Here we get to the catch, because up until now, life's peachy! For someone like myself who just switched careers, starting out fresh, this is not something I have the budget to continue after my month is up. There are many positives though for people who can afford it, so I encourage you to seek this out for great results!

Great place to come if you are serious about improving your game. I highly recommend it!

I knew at my 4th class I was going to join Orange Theory (Leawood). In Leawood you had to wear a mask between stations, but I loved it. I found Lee's Summit Orange Theory and knocked off 20 minutes driving time. In Lee's Summit you mask up the entire hour. I now attend 2-3 times a week, containing my races on the weekends. My Jean size has gone down 1 or 2, and my bragging about going to Orange Theory has increased. I'm sure the coaches know the words I utter under my mask by looking at my eye expressions. I'm sure I'm stronger. I love the coaches in Lee's Summit, and the managers. It's a beautiful facility and lots of fun. Though sometimes it seems like an obstacle course instead of HIIT tread/rower/weights. The coaches make it fun. Honestly it's one of the best things I could've done for myself. It's hard and sometimes I get to my car and sit, but it's fun and worth it.

I can't imagine calling anywhere else my home box. I am truly thankful and blessed to have found this place.

The instruction you get at Thrive has no preconceived notions of what a "better you" means. Each person's needs are evaluated on an individual basis and the instruction is tailored to achieve your goals. For me, the constant sitting I do during work often leaves me feeling tight and sore. Every time I take a class at Thrive, I leave the class feeling better and like my muscles have been opened back up and can now work the way they are supposed to be functioning. If you are looking for a place that is focused on individuals and will help you become a healthier and stronger version of you, Thrive is worth trying out.
