August 2 Master Class: Sergiu Brindusa
Husband and wife team, Sergiu Brindusa and Beth Moore, opened the Brindusa-Moore Ballet
Academy in September 2005 and produced 8 full length ballet’s; Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella,
Giselle, Coppelia, Swan Lake, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Nutcracker all to great
acclaim. They were selected by Rotary Club of Pocatello in 2006 and 2007 to produce the
community Nutcracker, garnering for the club successive years of the largest proceeds ever
which the club distributed throughout the community in support of the cultural arts. In
December 2007, the Rotary Clubs of Pocatello and Blackfoot worked together to bring the
production to the Blackfoot Performing Arts Center, as well, earning for that venue its largest
audience ever. They continued their partnership with the Rotary Club of Pocatello for 11 years
until 2016 and were presented with the President’s Award for “service above self” in 2009.
In May, 2007, Brindusa-Moore Ballet Academy and its Directors received the Pocatello Arts
Council Community Partnership Award “in appreciation of the exceptional contribution to
promoting the arts in our community.” Mr. Brindusa and Ms. Moore also were honored as
recipients of an Idaho State Journal Business Award for 2007 as “Overachiever(s) Under 40.”
In 2016 they formed another successful entity, Alliance Academy of Dance, where they
continued to produce their iconic productions. They are the recipients of the Outstanding
Teacher’s award from the prestigious Youth America Grand Prix and Outstanding Coach award
from the Universal Ballet Competition where some of their very best students clinched top
awards including the Grand Prix and Rising Star. Their method of teaching has an undeniable
track record of success for children.
Though born on opposite sides of the Atlantic, their paths crossed twice at significant times in
their dance training and careers. Their first introduction was at the prestigious Kirov Academy
of Ballet in Washington, D. C., where they were both on full artistic and academic scholarships,
though not in the same class. Ms. Moore received her earliest dance training in her native
Atlanta, Georgia, with the Ruth Mitchell Dance Theater. She also studied with Pacific
Northwest Ballet, The School of American Ballet, and The Joffrey Ballet, all on full
scholarship, and at age 16 was a semi-finalist in the 1994 Jackson, Mississippi International
Ballet Competition. Mr. Brindusa received his earliest training in his native Romania at the
Institute of Music and Choreography in Bucharest. He came to the United States at age 14 to
enter the Kirov Academy, graduating with the highest artistic achievement diploma. He danced
on numerous occasions alongside stars of The Kirov Ballet and was twice a Finalist at the
world-renowned International Ballet Competitions - in 2000 in New York City and in 2002 in
Jackson, Mississippi.
Brindusa and Moore both joined Orlando Ballet in 1998, their paths crossing for the second
time. They were featured in many leading, principal and soloist roles in both classical and
contemporary ballets, including Paquita, Sleeping Beauty, The Nutcracker, La Bayadere,
Coppelia, Romeo and Juliet, Giselle, Swan Lake, Spartacus, West Side Story, Claire De Lune,
