    Summer at FMDA 2026

    *Summer Priority Registration for

    FMDA members opens 2/15 & Public 3/1 *

    6 Weeks Evening Class Session, Tuition starting at $67/month, cost based off total hours enrolled, since its 1.5 months of classes, tuition will be calculated off our monthly tuition rates you can find here, and will be one month tuition for total hours+ 1/2 month tuition of total hours.

    *Full 6 weeks due at time of registering OR pay $25 reg fee, & 6 week tuition fee June 1, 2026.

    SILKS Class Rates please note: Aerail silks class rates are being updated to $120 per month as the class will now be 60 minutes versus 45 minutes. After now, trying the class in both a 60 min and 45 min format, we strongly feel we need to go back to the 60 min format so that students get the VERY MOST out of one class/week. Many gyms do 50 min, and we just do not feel that is enough time to conidition, learn new skills and practice a routine with this specialized genre.

    *10% off silks class, still applies if enrolled in a dance/acro class with a max of 15 % off when stacking discounts.
