T&Y Ballet Studio is built on a rare foundation of professional theatre experience, academic training, and artistic excellence. Founded by Sabina Yapparova, former First Soloist of the Mikhailovsky Theatre, and Konstantin Tkachuk, former artist of The National Ballet of Canada, Mariinsky Theatre, and Mikhailovsky Theatre, T&Y Ballet Studio offers a level of ballet education rarely found in traditional recreational dance programs. We believe that exceptional ballet training extends far beyond learning steps and choreography. Our mission is to develop strong technical foundations, musicality, artistry, discipline, confidence, and a deep appreciation for the art of ballet. Through a structured curriculum rooted in the traditions of classical ballet, students receive individualized attention and professional guidance in a supportive yet challenging environment. Whether students are taking their first ballet class or pursuing advanced pre-professional training, our goal is to help each dancer develop strong technique, artistic confidence, discipline, and a lifelong appreciation for ballet. Our students have achieved success at prestigious international competitions, including Youth America Grand Prix (YAGP), ADC IBC, Global Dance Open (GDO), and Universal Ballet Competition (UBC). They have also received invitations, scholarships, and training opportunities from internationally respected institutions such as American Ballet Theatre, Royal Winnipeg Ballet School, The Rock School for Dance Education, Russian Masters Ballet, The Harid Conservatory, Next Generation Ballet, John Cranko School programs, Youth America Grand Prix International Summer Intensive programs, and the Vaganova International Program. At T&Y Ballet Studio, we are not simply preparing students for performances and competitions. We are helping young dancers build the technical foundation, artistic maturity, professionalism, resilience, and confidence required for long-term success in ballet and beyond. A place where serious ballet journeys begin.
