Guest Instructor Visits Ballet Detroit

Ballet Detroit welcomed Ms. Violetta from Saint-Petersberg, Russia for one week of instruction.  Violetta Zhirova received her instruction from the Vaganova Academy, including instruction from Ninele Kurgapkina (Legendary Kirov prima ballerinas, one of the last Vaganova’s students). Her Stage experience includes Mariinsky, Mikhailovsky, Alexandrinsky and Hermitage Theatres. We are very excited to have had the opportunity to host her in Detroit for an exciting week of training for the dancers at Ballet Detroit.
