About me
Oleg Ignatev
I am a graduate of the Vaganova Academy — widely considered the most prestigious ballet school in the world — and an artist of the Mariinsky Theatre. Ballet has been my life and my language for as long as I can remember.
On the stage and around the world
Beyond the Mariinsky stage, I have had the privilege of giving masterclasses across the globe — from Korea and Taiwan to Thailand and Macao — working with dancers of every level, from curious beginners to professionals.
Why I teach online
Not everyone can stand at the barre of a great academy — but everyone deserves to feel the grace, strength and joy of ballet. I created these courses and lessons so you can train with me wherever you are, at your own level, in your own time.
