Genesis Gym Accused of Covering Abuse | Kansas City News

A Johnson County teen is suing Genesis Health Clubs, alleging a personal trainer groomed and sexually abused her over five years ago during 2021 training sessions. The lawsuit claims the gym failed in its duty to protect minors, ignored red flags—including prior reports of misconduct by the same trainer—and allowed sessions to occur in secluded areas. The plaintiff seeks a jury trial against four Genesis entities, accusing them of negligent hiring and supervision. While Genesis says it would immediately terminate any staff involved, they won’t comment on this case, and the trainer remains unnamed and uncharged.
