Another great opportunity for local dancers in Harford County
at the Maryland School of Ballet and Modern Dance! On Saturday,
August 16, 2008 Mr. Gyula Pandi visited the Maryland School
of Ballet and Modern Dance and taught their students a remarkable
class. Mr. Pandi trained and performed with the Hungarian
National Ballet and was a member of the faculty at North Carolina
School for the Arts for 26 years, where he touched the lives
of many students, including a number who have become internationally
acclaimed teachers. Since his retirement in 2003, Mr. Pandi
has remained a sought-after guest teacher in many schools
and companies throughout the country.
Mr. Pandi is currently World Champion Figure Skater, Kimmie
Meissner’s private ballet instructor. We thoroughly
enjoyed having Mr. Pandi work with our students, while he
and Kimmie were in Bel Air, and the students enjoyed an opportunity
to take ballet class from Mr. Pandi and meet Kimmie.
"You have a nice studio with the right
atmosphere of professional and caring, loving feelings."
