Lafleur's Gymnastic Club

What Lafleur's Gymnastic Club does

LaFleur's Largo Gymnastics Club is a family-owned, single-location gymnastics training facility operating in Largo, Florida since 1980. The business serves children aged 18 months through 17 years in the Tampa / St. Petersburg metropolitan area, offering age-segmented recreational programs (Gym Kids for girls 4.5-17, Tiny Tots for preschoolers 18 months-4.5 years, Rough & Tumble for boys 5-17), a competitive team program spanning USA Gymnastics Levels 2 through 10 plus Xcel Bronze through Sapphire divisions, summer and holiday camps with optional aftercare, supervised open gym sessions, and gymnastics-themed birthday party packages. The 20,000 sqft facility, which the company states is the largest gymnastics gym in Pinellas County, is built around extensive safety infrastructure including 1.5-inch carpet bonded foam padding throughout the floor, in-ground trampolines, and 6-foot-deep foam safety pits, alongside both Olympic name-brand equipment and scaled-down equipment for younger gymnasts.

The business model is a hybrid of recurring tuition (recreational and competitive team classes), seasonal camp fees, pay-as-you-go drop-in open gym ($10-$20 per session), event-based birthday party revenue ($260-$305 per event), and sanctioned competition entry fees. Go-to-market is primarily local: direct walk-ins at the facility, an iClassPro-powered online booking portal, and phone/email inquiry, supplemented by Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube channels. The gym also hosts externally attended events, including the December 2026 Florida State Championships at Advent Health Fieldhouse, in partnership with equipment, accommodation, and media vendors.

Ownership and operations are concentrated in the LaFleur family. Mike LaFleur (USAG Region 8 Hall of Fame 2017) and Melody LaFleur (USAG Region 8 Hall of Fame 2018) are co-owners; Melody is credited with producing 800+ State Champions, 92 Regional Champions, 105 National Qualifiers, and 25+ college scholarship recipients over her coaching career. Daughter Kaley LaFleur serves as Co-Owner and Office Manager, and Nic Tomasette serves as Co-Owner and Co-Head Coach for vault and bars at levels 8-10. The company has 13 employees, no external funding, no subsidiaries, and no public listing, operating as a private family enterprise anchored to a single physical asset.
