AluapDans- Companhia de Dança Paula Marques
AluapDans - Paula Marques Dance Company is a Non-Profit Association, established in January 2010.
Since then we work as:
-
Dance Company
-
Dance and Art School
As a COMPANY, we are responsible for two sub-structures: School´s Dance Company and an Inclusive Dance Company. We have developed our own repertoire both at a professional level and stutent level, as well as in an inclusive manner, since 1998.
As a DANCE SCHOOL we began by teaching non-certified dance classes until we were recognized by the International Dance Teachers Association (IDTA) in 2012, since then we have included certified vocational education in our offer to the general public.
In 2017, we were recognized by the Portuguese Ministry of Education and Science, therefore allowing us to teach official dance courses within the scope of Specialized Artistic Education in Dance.
For reasons related to social responsibility, the school assumes a scholarship program for students in need and who stand out due to their technical and artistic qualities.
Currently we has several partners in Cascais, Oeiras and Oporto, highly qualified tecahers and a diverse offer. We work with students who do dance just for fun, as well as students who aim for a career in dance. All ages are welcome.
The school is highly recognized for its healthy work environment.
