Fantastic experience: After reading a few of the reviews I would like to address a couple below. Specifically Bret and Cole's review on myself. Each individual brought in a week free pass, which requires both to have a Valid local ID in the KC Metro area. Neither gentleman had one and were disgruntled that I would not honor the pass without ID's. We believe in the safety of our members first and foremost; even at the end of the day if it costs us business. Here at World Gym we do believe in world class customer service; if you happen to make it in you can experience for yourself first hand.

Fantastic experience: I read every one star review in the last year. Literally none of those reviews even accurately reflect what is actually going on in the gym and at this facility. It is not a five-star personalized service where everything needs to be done according to how you would like a gym to be ran. It is a gym with hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of weightlifting equipment. Classes. Tennis courts. I would rather spend more money here than a cheaper gym like planet fitness that is always crowded. If a part of the gym or bathrooms are dirty. Yes it is the facilities responsibility to keep it clean but it is also the members duty to keep the gym accountable when things are obviously not brought to their attention. This is a great gym. With great equipment. And a nice boozy bar for you to get your drink on after a hard workout or just for a happy hour if you're feeling in for a drink. This gym gets the job done for fitness and general well-being when trying to train your body. Do not listen to the one star review that have been made before April 29th, 2022. This gym is literally 6 minutes from my house and is a great place for me to workout after work.

Fantastic experience: I’m delighted to have joined the Genesis Health Club family. That’s right, they make you feel like family. I have a personal training who’s experiences and knowledge it outstanding. He is progressively moving along towards reaching my goals. He uses a sophisticated evaluation system to measure my range of motion and my strength symmetry. Genesis is a world class health club with state of the art strength machines and free weights. They provide towel service and the locker room, showers, steam room have all been recently renovated. The entire staff are friendly and helpful. After you’ve finished your workout you can enjoy a healthy smoothie, snacks, beer or your favorite alcoholic drink. For me joining Genesis Health Club is an investment in my health and well-being. O

The recent renovations are amazing- very aesthetically pleasing, great new equipment, the new locker rooms are fantastic, plenty of space for all types of exercise.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I’ve been a member at Genesis for a total of 8 years. When I moved back I immediately got a membership again.

Fantastic experience: I have had an amazing experience at Genesis. They have multiple locations that were able to go to if needed. Everybody I have met there is so kind and helpful. My son is able to play tennis and do crossfit and have other options. As well as a variety of classes I can take. Tom is my personal trainer and he has gone above and beyond! Thank you for the motivation to help myself and son to get more active.

Fantastic experience: THANKS CHRIS AND TOM!!!!!! My family and I want to thank the personal training supervisor Chris for sitting us down and understanding what we were trying to do. He listened to our goals and gave us an understanding of how we needed to accomplish them. He explained the prices and classes in depth answering all of our questions also. Chris hooked us up with the coolest personal trainer, Tom. Tom showed us how to use the gym equipment and workout properly. He followed up and kept in touch with us. Tom was great working with the kids, and being patient with all of us while learning. We will now visit various GHC’s to continue our weekly workouts. THANKS TOM AND CHRIS!!!!!!!!

Susan Murphy 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Communication from the tennis pros is outstanding. I’ve never had to wait more than 1/2 a day to hear back from these very busy & talented people. They have never been anything less than professional- are supportive and positive, accommodating. Their clients are very talented; gym folks are extremely committed never seen more fit community there. Renovations are excellent. Just need food at bar ;)

Fantastic experience: After weeks of phone calls, meeting with trainers, and touring gyms, I FINALLY found Genesis in Merriam! My first contact was David (Club Manager). Already I was impressed with his prompt responses and professionalism. I then meet him in person and I felt like I was the only person that mattered. While I was there, his time and attention was devoted to ME! The facility is amazing, clean, and has so much to offer. I thoroughly enjoyed my meeting with David and left feeling like I made a new friend and found a place that is perfect for me. My next meeting was with Chris (Personal Training Manager). Once again, while I was there his time and attention was devoted to ME! We had a great conversion about my goals and Chris thoroughly explained all my options. We came up with a plan and I left feeling so good, super excited, and that I had made another friend. Finally, I met my personal trainer that Chris (based on our meeting) felt would best help me accomplish my goals. Chris was SO right! TOM is the BEST! ABSOLUTELY THE BEST! I can not believe how incredible I feel, look, and transformation I have seen since training with Tom! I love our sessions! I look forward to going to the gym! I actually laugh and have fun at the same time! Since day one, I've walked into that gym and have felt so welcomed! Thank you David, Chris, and Tom for your continued encouragement and believing in me!

Chet Mayekawa 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am a group fitness instructor at this facility and I can't say enough about my teammates that provide the outstanding services that makes this a great place. But, more importantly, this "great place" is filled with a community of fun, fitness seeking members who are passionate about what they do, and embrace everyone who walks in the door!

grant reuben 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Quality Great place to workout and the staff are always very helpful and welcoming. Big gym with all the necessary equipment, but not too big to give it a commercial feel like some of the other gyms.

Lisa Muller 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Since joining in April, my experience has been nothing shy of AMAZING! I've been very pleased with the staff and facility. My trainer Tom is knowledgable and keeps me motivated in my drive to get the workout I need to look and feel good. Chris, the fitness manager was great in getting me signed up right away with my personal trainer Tom. What a great TEAM! If you're on the fence, like I was about joining and paying for a personal trainer, don't think twice and do it today! It's well worth the money and you won't regret your decision in making the investment in your physical health. I'm super happy with Geneis at the Merriam, KS location!

Ian Miles 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Personal Trainer Tom W. is great at the Racquet club location. Very knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone who's a novice or experienced in weight training and core stability exercises. Also a good resource for planning diet and incorporating supplements geared toward the performance level or recovery needed. He crafted a training regimen that helped me build muscle mass while losing body fat and increasing flexibility in about 12 weeks.

Caroline Horn 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love the group classes, the instructors Sarah and Anna are very motivating and make the workout fun! I also like the tennis program. I signed up for the beginner’s program and am learning those essential skills to be able to enjoy playing. My son is also enrolled in the tennis kid program and loves it! I also had an opportunity to try personal training and it was amazing! Chris from Personal Training matched me with one of their trainers Dave. He was so knowledgeable and guided me through a workout like I never had before!

Tripp Dearborn 2 years ago

John Stoiber 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was living in KC area on business for a number of years. Jamie Narron helped me get set up at this great gym which I mainly used for tennis. I appreciated all of his help and flexibility. Great experience.

Conner Lilleston 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Haven’t really been a fan of Genesis since they took over the KC gym market. This gym was a complete dump. Finally they decided to renovate the building, which took forever btw. But the wait was worth it. Completely different gym than what it was before. Bunch of new equipment and the locker rooms are phenomenal. One of the better gyms in the area.

Joe Cacioppo 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism The BEST gym in and around KC! It's multiple locations make it my first choice to workout! Clean and Sanitized it is the go to club for people that are serious about getting fit!

Dennis B 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I've ever worked out at. Atmosphere is great, and the employees were always super friendly. Had to move and miss working out at this gym. Edit: this gym is now genesis, so idk if anything I said it still valid.

Khara Hawthorne (Danie1123) 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Last December (2017) I signed up for a membership @ another club, it was a bad experience. Due to a friend who attends this club I came in to see if I felt more comfortable. I came in and spoke with Tyler. He was very understanding and professional. I got linked with a trainer who made me feel at ease and excited about creating a new me. And the philosophy of feeling better and being healthy as opposed to the numbers on the scale. % recommend for anyone apprehensive about getting into working out and creating a healthier you.

Grace Centlivre 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Chance Joost is so great with all ages! He's professional, friendly, and you can see a difference in our kids learning and growth with each lesson. We are super excited for Branden Joost to start at the club this week and to see what kind of awesome programs these to develop here!

Bill Butts 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym with great employees! Going in is very inspiring and I don't feel judged all! Quality equipment and lots of it so I don't have to wait too long between sets! I highly recommend going here!

Robert Lilly 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Don't get sucked into those Planet Fitness ads. You can lose weight at World Gym too, but good luck gaining real muscle at Planet Fitness. The Shawnee Planet Fitness dumbbells only go to 70lbs and very limited on free weights. Whenever I asked the trainers, staff or members at World Gym for advise, they were happy to give it. Everybody there is super nice and helpful, especially Shane Stoafer. His advise to my son helped him to gain 12lbs of muscle and I finally got over my plateau that I've been struggling with for a couple years. The facility is great. A wide variety of free weights and machines. I can have a different workout every week. Plus the remodel is making the place way better then when it used to be Gold's Gym.

Eileen Gutmann 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love it here! The staff truly care about their members and your personal goals. If you want to be at a gym that will truly help you become better at fitness, this is the place!! P.S. Robert and Cesar are my best frands. Kaleigh is an amazing trainer!! Thank you World gym!!!

Davi Faulkner 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love the atmosphere and people who come here. You could turn and ask a question to anyone around and get the answer your seeking or get directed to the person who does know. A wide range of all lifting types from the physiques to the muscle freaks and everything in between plus a few guys who might make wonder if that's possible. I enjoy every day I'm here and recommend world gym to all who are looking for the ability to be more capable of achieving a healthy and fit lifestyle.

anonymous h 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym and the staff is amazing!! I called to get information after my husband checked out the gym and fell in love. I spoke with Rob and he answered all of my questions and offered to give me a tour whenever I had time. He walked me around and introduced me to other staff members which was a great personal touch. The staff is genuine to get to know those that work out there and always willing to answer questions. The trainers are great and working out with Kaleigh before my wedding was an amazing stress reliever and made sure I looked great on my special day. She is an amazing trainer and I would recommend everyone to work with her!!!! The classes, saunas and all the equipment you could ever need. Why go to any other gym?!?!

Kelly Grube Jr 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Got tired of paying 40+ a month for another gym down the street. Never got to negotiate so I switched here after a co-worker informed me. the location is right off the highway which saves me alot of time, they offer more equipment and options for other services. maintenance is also more tentative than other centers I'm been to.

Carissa Belcher 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love everything about this gym. The staff is always willing to help its members with any questions they may have. Lots of space and gym equipment. Free weights, cardio, boxing and more! The juice bar is a bonus!

Joshua Crook 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Great atmosphere. Used to go to 24hr but left because it was too crowded. More equipment here, staff are great and everyone is friendly.

Briana Duarte 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I used to go to 24 hour fitness before I was part of world gym! No regrets! I always feel welcomed. The staff knows me by name , no hey yous at all. I love my trainer here. I wouldn't be the way I am without everything she taught me. Other staff members answer my questions so I've learned alot . Their feedback keeps me motivated! It's always fun here =)

Dolan McNabb 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Incredible gym! Today was my first day, me and my girlfriend both started here and the staff were amazing, the gear was all cleaned and operated well, and most of all it was fun! Definitely glad I got a membership. :)

Sean Quinn 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Worlds Gym has been my gym for the past two years and couldn't be happier with my decision. New renovations to the locker rooms have been a big plus. A friendly staff every time makes you feel likes its not just another gym.

jeremyweck 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: It is an incredible gym. The rates are more than reasonable and the staff is always willing to help anyone out. Much more of a family type atmosphere as opposed to a gym that wants to just take your money and give you free sub sandwiches. The whole staff is committed to assist you with obtaining your work out goals. Not only are they readily available and knowledgeable about personal fitness but enjoy discussing the topic. Even if you don't hire a personal trainer they will still give you pointers on how to organize your workouts to receive the best results. I would recommend this gym to anyone that wants to be a part of gym community more than just another subscription on a screen being checked in by a random person that wont talk to you again until you leave.

April Rodriguez 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! PERFECT atmosphere for self motivation. This place really makes you feel like family. Staff is always nice. Landy and Lydia always have a GREAT attitude when greeting. All trainers are very professional and really know what they're doing. Staff is always willing to help with any question. Even when it comes to writing you a workout plan. Even members there make it a fun place to be.

Maryam Ibarra 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been going to the gym for over a year now and wouldn't consider going anywhere else! The staff is amazing and truly dedicated to helping you reach and exceed whatever goal you have set for yourself! And their trainers are so knowledge, you can't go wrong!
