Five Star Athletics

What Five Star Athletics does

Five Star Athletics operates a single 10,000 sq ft cheerleading, tumbling, dance, ninja, and youth training gym located at 2730 E 4th St in Reno, Nevada. The business has been in operation since 2014 and currently trains more than 250 competitive athletes across multiple disciplines. Beyond competitive team training, the facility runs a diversified set of consumer-facing programs including birthday parties, summer camps, guest coaching sessions, private lessons, and sub-brands such as Velocity Dance and High School Teams. The company serves the Reno/Sparks youth athletics market, with a customer base composed of local families and athletes.

The business model is consumer-facing B2C, with revenue generated primarily through recurring monthly tuition from competitive and recreational athletes, supplemented by seasonal programs (summer camps, clinics) and event-based services such as birthday parties (priced around $400 per event). Registration, class booking, and athlete management are handled through iClass Pro, a third-party gym-management SaaS platform. Five Star Athletics is a small, privately held operator with 11-50 employees and no disclosed outside funding, no parent company, and no M&A activity.

Operationally, the company is a single-site operator whose growth has come from product-line extension rather than geographic expansion. Its 2023 win at the inaugural World All Star Federation Championship is the most prominent competitive milestone in the public record and serves as the primary brand-equity signal in the absence of disclosed financial metrics.
