About Polina
My professional background is based on the Vaganova Ballet Method.
I graduated from the Perm State Choreographic School (Russia) and spent 14 years dancing with the Boris Eifman Theatre, performing leading coryphée roles and solo parts.
Alongside my stage career, I worked as a rehearsal coach within the company, which shaped my teaching approach.
I have over 3 years of teaching experience working with children, athletes, and adults - from beginners to professional dancers.
I am a certified PBT instructor (since 2023) and a certified Barre Fitness instructor (since 2024).
Teaching is my true element, and I genuinely enjoy sharing my experience with students who wish to develop strong technique, body awareness, and a deeper understanding of ballet.

My teaching approach is rooted in the Vaganova Method and adapted to each student's physical abilities and goals.
Lessons may include:
• classical ballet (barre & centre)
• pointe work
• stretching (upon request)
• PBT (for PRO ballet artists and athletes) with a fit ball or small gymnastic ball
• technique refinement and body conditioning
• Barre fitness
I place strong emphasis on anatomy, coordination, and efficient movement, explaining movement principles in a clear and practical way.
I believe that progress comes through consistency, awareness, and a genuine connection to the art of ballet.
