Gold Star Gymnastics LLC

What Gold Star Gymnastics LLC does

Gold Star Gymnastics LLC is a privately held, family-operated gymnastics studio headquartered at 727 Sunnyvale-Saratoga Road in Sunnyvale, California. The company was founded in 1996 and has been under the ownership of Pamela and Herb Evans since 2001. It operates from a single 19,200 square foot air-conditioned facility equipped with traditional gymnastics apparatus including bars, beams, rings, trampolines, vault, spring floors, a foam pit, and a large parking lot, with offices staffed more than 60 hours per week across six days.

The company serves children from toddler age through adults with a horizontally segmented program portfolio spanning recreational gymnastics classes (KinderStars, MiniStars, Boys/Girls Recreational, Teen, Adult, Tumbling), Ninja Training, All-Star Cheerleading and Hip Hop, Boys and Girls Competitive Gymnastics Teams, and Holiday and Summer Camps. Its underlying technology stack is the iClassPro parent portal and class management system, used for online registration, scheduling, account management, and billing. The business runs on a subscription-based monthly tuition model (averaged over four weeks), with no registration fees, sibling discounts ($10 per child, half price for third child and beyond), free trial classes, a structured Star Week progress-tracking and recognition system, and family-friendly make-up policies.

Gold Star's revenue is generated entirely through in-person service delivery at its Sunnyvale location, with marketing executed via website content, Facebook, Instagram, and free trial class acquisition mechanics. The company employs 100+ coaches with USA Gymnastics, USASF, SafeSport, and CPR/First Aid certifications. Ownership and operating decisions remain consolidated within the Evans family, and the company has no disclosed external investors, parent company, subsidiaries, or acquisitions beyond the 2001 ownership transition.
