Ballet (Daytime)

We have a range of classes at Déda in a variety of styles for different abilities. Our friendly Box Office team can help recommend the right class for you, call in or call us for a chat.

Our classes are organized into the following levels:

Level 1: Suitable for beginners, those returning to dance or exercise & people looking to master the fundamentals of a style.

Level 2: Perfect for people seeking progression, skills development and those who want to learn new and more challenging moves or steps.

Level 1 & 2: Designed for all abilities - tutors will ensure all levels are catered for in the session.

Both. Most of our Academy classes are bookable in a half-termly block (tasters available on request), with the exception of Play Dance Move which is a drop-in class for ages 18 months to 4 years. Our Adult classes are largely drop in classes, with the exception of Aerial, which is booked as a course. See our classes page for more information www.deda.uk.com/classes. Advanced booking is strongly recommended for popular classes, as they often sell out quickly. 

None of our classes require you to purchase any specialist clothing - the main thing is to be comfortable and wear clothing which you can move in.  Commercial dance is high energy so does require trainers to be worn whilst Yoga and Pilates classes require bare feet. Contemporary is done in bare feet, whilst Ballet classes you can go with just socks or wear ballet shoes. 

Please contact the Box Office for further information on individual class guidelines. 

No. We provide mats and blocks for Yoga and Pilates classes, but if you would prefer to bring your own please do! You may like to bring a prop along to a class such as Belly Dance – your tutors will advise you. 

Yes. Upstairs we have full changing facilities with lockers and showers. Lockers require a token which can be purchased at front of house for 75p.
