Erasmus Dance Society
Who are we?
Erasmus Dance Society is the largest and oldest (32 years and counting) community of dancing students in the Netherlands! We aim to inspire our members to love dancing as much as we do through a variety of different dance classes and much more!
Never danced before? No problem! We’ve got classes and bootcamps for absolute beginners to pros. We offer regular classes in Hip-Hop, Salsa, Latin Ballroom, Standard Ballroom, Bachata, and Contemporary. In addition, we feature many other styles in our quarterly workshops! Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced dancer, there’s a place for you on our dance floor!
At Erasmus Dance Society we like to think of ourselves as a family. We often get together for other events such as galas, social drinks/activities and, free dance evenings. Of course, everyone (Dutch, international, and exchange) is welcome to join our dancing family!
