Biography

I was 6 years old when my mother brought me to the dance department from a music school in Kostomukša, Russia, where I studied ballet and folk dance. In Kostomukša, my birth town, I learned basic movement technique, emotional performing expression, work discipline and got a lot of performing experience. 

When I was 17 I moved with my family to Finland, where I got into the Live Vocational College in Helsinki and graduated in 2013. Besides the studies in Helsinki I had the opportunity to participate in Ooppera`s morning ballet classes, street dance lessons, contact improvisation jams, acrobatics lessons and classes for professionals. 

Studying and graduating at Turku Arts Academy gave me the opportunity to encounter different artistic experiences I expanded my network, while working in the professional dance field. 

Nowadays I am working as a dance performer, choreographer and teacher. In my art I try to embody my principles of good and morality to support the balance of life around. I enjoy educating people and try to make the world a better place.
