Venue Description

Déda's mission is to deliver a diverse and enriching dance focussed arts programme and be recognised as a leader in the field of Dance Development. Déda aims to offer a programme that engages a diverse audience through performance, producing, and participation; promoting and presenting a balance of work that is both accessible and challenging. With a class curriculum of around 50 classes a week and an extensive community development programme, Déda is one of the key cultural organisations in the city. We want everyone to enjoy dance and all are welcome in our classes. We have a huge range of classes for children from 6 months upwards and people of all abilities. Déda is an accessible building and a copy of our Access Statement is available online giving more details about the building.
