A modern gym runs three peer functions under a General Manager: Sales (memberships and personal training), Training (the floor and classes), and Front Desk (member experience). The owner sits above the GM. Multi-location gyms add a Director of Operations between owner and GMs.

Frequently asked questions
What does a typical gym org chart look like?
A typical single-location gym has the Owner at the top, a General Manager running day-to-day, and three peer functions: Sales, Training, and Front Desk. Total staff usually runs 10 to 50 depending on size and class volume.
How is a boutique studio chart different from a big-box gym?
Boutique studios collapse Sales and Front Desk into one role and put the Studio Owner closer to the floor. Big-box gyms separate Sales (high accountability for new memberships) from Front Desk (member service) because the skills do not overlap.
Where do personal trainers report?
Trainers report up through the Training Director, not Sales. Even though PT generates revenue, putting trainers under Sales creates a conflict of interest with member service.
