Visited 10th Planet Kansas City while on business. Coach Blake is a very patient and technical instructor. Very welcoming members, clean facility and fun scraps.

Friendly, clean, low-stress, and curriculum-based way to learn the most essential martial art for grappling and self-defense. I have trained there for two years and never heard of or witnessed anyone beat up, humiliated, or even lose their temper. Space shared with Beatniks Dance Studio guarantees everyone is well-mannered. No egos, just mutual encouragement and like-minded fellowship that extends beyond the gym.

I've been training at 10th Planet for 5 years, and I cannot give it higher praise. Coach Jeremy and Coach Blake have created a community of people that care about training and growing as martial artists--but also care about each other as people. If you are a parent looking for a way to teach your children self-confidence or self-defense, this place is a must. If you are hoping to find an academy where you can learn this amazing art called Jiu Jitsu or start a career in MMA, this is the place! Come train with us!!

I stopped by here while working in the KC area and was glad I did. While I am from the South and appreciate Southern hospitability, Jeremy, James, Blake and the boys went above and beyond and made me feel like family. In addition to the friendly atmosphere the level of competition and technical acumen was superb. They train four nights a week with standup preceding the BJJ class three of the four nights. The BJJ is 10th Planet and totally worth it (great training and the coolest rash guards around). I train at a predominately gi oriented school but will definitely be taking back some of the techniques I learned. If you are in the KC area and are looking for a place to train I highly recommend Lone Wolf MMA.

I began attending classes here with a friend, initially feeling hesitant as I hadn’t done any cardio in quite some time. However, by following the coaches’ guidance, I quickly became immersed in the process. Soon enough, I found myself fully engaged, purchasing rash guards, and becoming a part of an incredible community I hadn’t known existed. The Tenth Planet community, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as a whole, have had a profound impact on my life—helping me lose 40 pounds, manage social anxiety, and providing a valuable structure for personal growth and learning.
