A Martial Arts Gym in Excelsior Springs
Stride Martial Arts and Fitness, 2365 Vintage Dr, Excelsior Springs, MO 64024. Call (816) 629-8514. We teach Kids Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, adult BJJ, and fitness kickboxing. Kearney, Liberty, Lawson, Richmond, and Orrick families drive here — we do not have a second gym.
Fun
Jiu-Jitsu skills can only be built through consistency over a long period of time. That’s why we believe training should be something people enjoy and look forward to — because the ones who stick around are the ones who improve.
Family
You may compete as an individual, but you can only improve in Jiu-Jitsu with the help of a team. The friendships and community built on the mats should benefit and boost everyone up far beyond them. The mats should be a place where people support each other, train together, and feel like they belong.
Fitness
The skills and conditioning we build in class should make us more fit and more prepared for whatever our goal may be. We want to be fit and prepared for whatever challenges are thrown our way — both on and off the mats.
