About Me
Hello, I'm Elena.I'm a professional ballet dancer and a highly qualified instructor with 20 years of teaching experience. I trained at the prestigious Vaganova Ballet Academy and was mentored by ballet masters from the Mariinsky Theatre (formerly known as the Kirov Theatre).
My Theatre Experience:
My experience in theatre encompasses both classical and contemporary ballets. Under the guidance of ballet masters from the Mariinsky stage, I performed solo parts in ballets such as "Swan Lake," "La Sylphide," "Scheherazade," "Giselle," "The Firebird," "Pa de Quatre," and "The Dying Swan." Additionally, I was the first performer of the leading roles in "Master and Margarita" and "Strauss in St. Petersburg." I had the privilege of dancing in the unique choreography of L. Jakobson, particularly in the ballet "Spartacus" and his choreographic miniatures.

Excellent , very knowledgable and fully dedicated teacher!
Elena trains and prepares my daughter for next year’s admission audition into a prestigious ballet school. We are grateful for her teaching and very lucky to have found her.
Elena is a phenomenal teacher with extensive ballet knowledge. Thanks to her corrections, I received compliments from the ballet master in our company on my progress and the cleanliness of my technique. Elena excelled at explaining the logic behind each movement and its impact on my technique, while also being exceptional at helping with artistic expression. I highly recommend her if you are looking to improve your technique whether it’s pirouettes or jumps, or artistic presence.
Elena is a great teacher, knowledgable and helpful.
Elena is detailed, patient, and effective! She teaches such a pure Vaganova class (so hard to find) and gives excellent corrections on both technique and artistic expression. I did not fully understand proper turnout and placement until after studying with Elena, which she breaks down precisely to exactly which muscles should be engaged. Even my other ballet teachers have commented on my substantial improvements. I HIGHLY recommend her!

In addition to ballet classes and stretching, I also provide audition preparation and competition training variations.
My ballet class is typically divided into two parts: Barre and Center, which include adagio, pirouettes, and jumps. We can reserve time for pointe technique upon request as well. During classes, attention is given not only to the technical aspects of the combinations provided but also to their musicality and the logic of movements. Detailed analysis is also provided on which muscles should be engaged in each movement and what sensations the student should experience when executing the steps correctly.
It would be great if you could share a video of your class or variation performance before our first class. This will allow me to assess your level and make our lesson as productive as possible.

Private Dance Tutoring - Contemporary Dance / BalletAfter training in Ballet & Contemporary at Rambert School, I danced professionally for over a decade with companies such as Richard Alston Dance Company, National Dance Company Wales and Michael Clark Company.
I can teach and coach on a range of contemporary dance styles, choreography and performance and audition skills. We will improve strength & flexibility, improve coordination and develop technique. I primarily danced with Cunningham technique but have good experience of other techniques such as Graham, release and Gaga.
As a qualified physiotherapist, I can also teach about the anatomy of a dancer and how to look after the body and overcome injury.
I look forward to supporting younger students to enjoy dance whilst also developing their technique, musicality and dance proficiency.

Personal Trainer in Chiang Mai: Science-based Exercise and NutritionAbout me: I was the skinny kid who never seemed able to put on muscle. I tried all the tricks you see in the magazines (remember those?) and on the internet and got nowhere. Then one day I started reading the science behind how training and nutrition work. Since then, I've put on 30lbs of muscle, competed in strength sports and jiu-jitsu, and been helping others get the life they want. If you want to become the strongest version of yourself, send me a message.
