Owners Rochelle and Ryan Perk announced July 31 that The Little Gym of Round Rock will close permanently Aug. 1.

"It is with great sadness we share that after these two wonderful years, we have made the difficult decision to suspend our operations," the Perks said in an email. "This was not a decision that came easily, but due to personal and business reasons it is the best and only option for us at this time."

The gym, located at 3203 S. I-35, Round Rock, is part of a chain that offers parent-child classes for children ages 4 months to 3 years as well as noncompetitive gym classes, birthday parties, camps and more.

The Perks said they do not plan to reopen the franchise in Round Rock. However, the franchise is available for purchase and could reopen under new ownership in the future.
