Tuesday 16:00 till 17:00
With DéDé, we operate in many locations. Each location has its own specialty, so you can go all out with Urban Dance at one location and go wild with Classic or Danceballet at another.
We also offer lessons in Eindhoven Meerhoven, Eindhoven Stratum, Eindhoven Strijp, Veldhoven Oerle and Veldhoven Zeelst.
Take Danceballet classes at Sportschool de Atalanta
Our instructors train together in a dedicated teachers’ group, allowing them to keep developing their skills. They have all completed DéDé Dance’s in-house dance teacher training programme, based entirely on the DéDé Dance philosophy: enthusiastic, versatile and accessible.
The programme also provides in-depth training in teaching methods: how do you help a student master a new skill? In addition, our instructors learn about the development of children and teenagers, so they can tailor each class to the right age group.
This means you will always be taught in a way that suits you and your peers.
The classes are taught in a way that helps everything stick. Even our youngest dancers learn and remember new things. With children aged 3 to 5, we use plenty of playful exercises to help them learn to dance smoothly.
From the very beginning, you learn to perform and remember the exercises independently. As you get older, you gain a better understanding of how to perform each dance step correctly.
Interaction encourages learning
After the first half-hour of the class, the real dance party can begin. We continue working on choreography we have already learned and add new steps. Sometimes we practise for an upcoming performance, while other times we simply dance for our own enjoyment — always in a fun and friendly group atmosphere.
Everyone, whether young or old, big or small, should be able to enjoy dancing. That goes without saying. It is the unique DéDé Dance atmosphere that we want to preserve.
Performances in Veldhoven
One of the best things about dancing is, of course, performing. Every year, our dance classes in Veldhoven take part in several performances, including at the Oerse Braderie, Meimarkt and Veldhoven Danst.
What matters most is that everyone works towards the performance together. As a group, we put on a real show. Everyone can take part — a positive attitude is what matters most.
Experience the family feeling
Whether you are a toddler or a teenager, at DéDé Dance in Veldhoven we are one big family. The youngest girls look up to the older dancers and can learn a lot from them. In turn, the older girls are always happy to look after the younger groups.
Everyone belongs, and that is what creates such a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Perfect for our youngest dancers
We use games to teach dance movements, because learning through play is the most enjoyable way to discover new things. The mouse game, for example, helps children gradually become more flexible.
It is wonderful to see how quickly even the very youngest dancers make progress. In Veldhoven, children can start dancing with us from the age of two — before they even start primary school.
For children and adults
Our dance schools in Veldhoven offer a wide range of classes for different age groups. Across our locations, dancers range in age from 18 months to 68 years.

Let loose and have fun
Having fun is an important part of our dance classes too. It is not all about serious dancing. A class becomes even more enjoyable with plenty of laughter, fun and friendly banter.
We also make special occasions extra festive. During Carnival and Sinterklaas, for example, we organise fun activities. Our instructors also regularly give workshops at primary schools, so children throughout Veldhoven can get to know our dance school.
Taking it to the next level
Keep challenging yourself. As you get older or improve your skills, the dance classes gradually become more difficult. All groups still dance to the same music and learn the same basic exercises.
Our instructors are always there to help you make the exercises and dance steps more challenging.
Dreaming of joining a demo team
If you stand out in your group, you may also have the opportunity to join one of our demo teams. We believe it is important that everyone gets the opportunities that match their level.
You can continue dancing with your friends in the regular class you already know and love, while getting the extra challenge you need in the demo team.
The following classes are held at our location the Atalanta:
