Have trained here for over 3 years now, Rudy took me from not knowing anything about combat sports to coaching me in my first and next three fights. Best gym in KC

Hands down the best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym around. From the moment I walked through the doors, I knew this place was special. The coaches are absolutely incredible — not just in their skill and knowledge, but in how they teach, encourage, and lead. Whether you’re just training for a good workout or a serious competition competitor, they meet you where you are and help you grow. What truly sets this gym apart, though, is the culture. Everyone here is treated like family. There’s no ego, no cliques — just a group of people who genuinely care about each other and want to see each other improve both on and off the mats. If you’re looking for a place to train, learn real Jiu Jitsu, and be surrounded by positive, motivated people, look no further. I’m proud to be part of this gym and couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Our son has been with Rudy Bears for a year now. We really like Rudy's style of teaching. Again we are in the children’s class and he is really patient and understanding. We’ve been able to watch the more advance classes and it’s a great community. There’s a wide spectrum of experience levels. So I wouldn’t hesitate to walk in and check them out.

Can’t think of a place I’d rather train at in my area. Great environment and energy, truly is a team. Everyone wants to get everybody better, and Rudy/Henrique/all other coaches are extremely knowledgeable plus are more than willing to share their high level knowledge. Top notch.

By far best martial arts gym IN THE MIDWEST. There’s no ego, no one thinks they’re better than the other. Everyone is there for the same purpose to better ourselves and with that same goal in mind we drive each other to be better everyday !!
