Jewish Community Center of Greater KC

The J is great! The exercise machines and overall fitness area is kept up-​to-​date and very clean. I also really enjoy some of the shows The White Theater puts on. Overall it is great. My only critique is that I’d like to have easier access to towels in the locker room and in the workout area.

I’ve been a member of the JCC for over 15 years. If that doesn’t speak volumes about how I feel, then let me provide details. This fitness center has grown exponentially over the last 10 years. They now provide all the latest and hottest fitness classes and I’ve been impressed with all their instructors, especially Marilyn. They provide a supportive and fun atmosphere and I’ve always felt comfortable here. The membership fee is more than reasonable as well and you won’t find a better deal for you and your family. The only thing that could make this place even better is if they had later hours on the weekends. Overall, though, I am very happy with this gym and I highly recommend the JCC.

The J’s fitness and sports center has it all. Free group exercise classes, great personal trainers, CrossFit, raquetball, basketball, soccer, baseball, tennis, two pools, and more! Programs for kids and adults so the whole family can get their recommended exercise in. Trust me, CHECK THIS PLACE OUT!

Wow. That’s all I can say. This place has it all. You show up, have good sweat, sauna, and shoot hoops. You can have a cup of coffee, gossip with the yentas, and have a game of racquetball. You can enjoy some Jewish cultural activity, have a swim, and watch some theater.

I’ve been a member here semi-​regularly since 2002. I’ll leave for a year and then be drawn back by the value and features that the JCC offers.
The facility offers many features including an indoor pool, a huge 50M outdoor lap pool, water slides, diving boards, squash courts (my personal fav), racket ball courts, kids gym with rock climbing wall, basketball courts, indoor track, weight room, yoga studio, spinning studio, tennis courts, softball diamonds, soccer fields… Whew… That is just the athletic facilities. They also offer many other community related services such as pre-​school, day care, child and adult education, self defense training, fine arts programming… etc…
The JCC is truly a world-​class facility and my corporate membership that costs ~$ 50 per month is a steal!
Generally speaking, for such a large facility with so many members, the place never seems jam-​packed with people like Life Time Fitness always seems to be. The longest that I’ve ever waited for a lane at the indoor pool is about 30 minutes. 95% of the time I dont even need to wait. I’ve never waited for a lane at the outdoor pool and I always am able to schedule a squash court.
I hesitate to write this review because I dont want a mad-​rush of new members to spoil my oasis… :-D
The JCC is a truly great facility and a asset to the greater KC Area…
