C.A.E.A.P. Centre Professional de Dansa Valencià is a dance school and professional dance center in Valencia, founded in 1982. The center is authorized to offer elementary and professional teachings in classical dance and Spanish dance. Mª. José Crespo serves as pedagogical director and Ana Miralles as general director, positions they have held since 2002.
The school provides both regulated and non-regulated dance programs. Regulated programs include elementary dance studies starting around age 8 for four years, and professional studies in classical dance or Spanish dance beginning around age 12 for six years. These programs lead to an official qualification as a dance technician. Non-regulated classes are offered in ballet, flamenco, contemporary dance, and jazz. Ballet classes accept children from age 3 and include groups for all levels and ages. Jazz classes follow Classic Jazz Dance style based on Matt Mattox and Bob Fosse techniques, with children’s groups starting from age 6. Flamenco courses range from beginner to professional level. Spanish dance students train in flamenco, escuela bolera, danza estilizada, and folclore.
Entrance tests are required for regulated programs and are held at the center in June or September. The school participates in dance festivals and charity performances.
