Curriculum vitae
I has been born in 1972 in Ukraine and began my dancing training at the National Ballet Boarding School in Kiev in 1982. In 1990, shortly after receiving my diploma, my first engagement followed at the National Opera of Kiev. Here I danced as a demi-soloist for example in "Swan Lake" and "Nutcracker" on numerous tours in Switzerland, Germany, France and Japan.
In September 1992, I joined as soloist at the National Theater in Rijeka, Croatia. In Rijeka, I was able to conquer the Rijeka audience and even the media with my roles as Paris and Mercutio in "Romeo and Juliet", Basil and Espado in "Don Quixote" as well as the Grand Pas de deux in "Le Corsaire". Then, two years later I was engaged as first soloist in the city of Linz, Austria were I danced the main roles in "Spartacus", "Pink Floyd", "Carmina Burana", "Prince" and "Nutcracker".
From 1998 to 2008 I worked as a soloist, training director and choreographer in the City Theater of Trier, Germany. Here I danced many leading roles in "Sleeping Beauty", "Cinderella", "Peer Gynt", but also in modern productions such as "Requiem" by Birgit Scherzer and "Judas" by Sven Grützmacher.
In 2002 I gave my debut as a choreographer with the dance piece "Women in Red" in Trier. In subsequent years, numerous choreographies were commissioned by the City Theater Trier. These included the record on tracks like "Madame Bovary", "Mister Susu", "He and She", "Woman in Black", "The Dream", "For me, shall rain red roses" and the feature-length dance piece for children "Max and Moritz".
The close cooperation with the Agency "Media Factory Trier-Luxembourg-Koblenz" allowed me to gain experience in the show and event area and to realize my choreographic ideas. So I staged several times with great success the summer event "Mystical Night" for the city of Trier and developed presentations for the company "Leyendecker Holzland" and for the 50-year anniversary of "Deutsche Bank AG" in Luxembourg.
Since 2008 I am the owner and director of the Ballet School "Dance & Soul" in Munich, Germany and work as a freelance choreographer and teacher of all ages and skill levels.
During the following years other shows and events came, among others for "Leyendecker Holzland", "Porsche" and "F-Secure" on behalf of the agency "Media Factory Trier-Luxembourg-Koblenz" and the agency "Media Team Munich".
In February 2013, I had produced my modern ballet called "Todo sobre el Amor" with solo dancers of the Augsburg Theater, Sofia National Theater and Gärtnerplatztheater. That earned a lot of applause and a very positive response in the Munich dance scene and in the media.
In 2013 and 2014 I has been invited for several months as a ballet master and guest choreographer in Ashiya, Japan to teach an choreograph at the "International Ashiya Ballet School".
