memberships
Here at TSNY Washington DC we thrive on shared experience - each session is made up of a group of people coming together and going on an adventure. Whether your aerial journey is just beginning, or TSNY is already your second home, we invite you to join our community as a TSNY member. Sessions, workshops, merchandise, and more are available at discounted rates. Benefits include exclusive access to the school’s fitness area and advance registration for social events. TSNY Membership allows students to take advantage of everything the school and community has to offer, and to share their passion with friends and family.
