Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Amy Duncan (X): I agree...it makes no sense that "dança erudita" would be opposed to "dança clássica", since "erudita" and "classical" are essentially the same thing.

here you find academic dance but that seems to be more specific:

http://www.dolmetsch.com/defsa1.htm

Academic dance this term encompasses the 16th- and 17th-century ballet de cour and the national schools (the 'academies of dance') that stem from it, positions, steps and movements codified in the dance d'école
