JACKSON, Wyo. — On Friday, April 26, Axis Gymnastics announced that it had come to an agreement with the building’s landlords to keep the business’ doors open on a year-to-year basis.

“There is still work to be done to keep Axis operating with a 60 to 65% rent increase and support from the community is imperative,” Axis Gymnastics Owner Jess Larson said in the announcement. “Myself and all of the staff members at Axis are so appreciative of the support we have already received in light of the articles that were recently released in the JH News & Guide and Buckrail.”

According to Larson, Axis will strive to keep prices affordable for the community, while navigating a new economic structure. Updated tuition, scholarship information rates and a new schedule for the 2024/2025 sessions will be sent out in early July so that families have time to plan.
