About Us
With the opening of the Academy in 2010, Sterling Ballet is the first studio in the region to offer instruction in classical Russian ballet and to teach the world-renown Vaganova technique. This formal instruction is provided through our directors,
Mr. Ulzii and Ms. Tuya, both having graduated from Vaganova Ballet Academy in
St. Petersburg, Russia. With these two experienced dancers and instructors,
Sterling Ballet serves the demand for more intensive study in the region with a
more structured and refined teaching approach.
Our instructional studios have recently expanded in response to the growing need
in the community. Now, we opened two locations in Ashburn and Sterling, with over 8,000 square feet each, we accommodate more students across a wide range of age, skill, and dance design – small studios for the youngest dancers learning for the first time, larger studios for pre-professional classes, and a black box theater for performance rehearsals and in-house performances. And, thanks to the support of our wonderful student families, the Academy has steadily grown over the years, inviting a diverse range of students, teachers, and our administrative staff, and
forging friendships among students that will last a lifetime.

We are pleased to offer our after school program, an educational system designed to train our students in a variety of dances while at the same time accommodate the completion of homework, provide reading, arts & crafts and tutoring, all done by a team of devoted instructors. Our goal for students is to prepare them to present their talents and hard work by appearing in professional-level performances of our sister organization, the Sterling Ballet Company. This includes class exhibitions and opportunities for multiple full-length ballet productions such as the Nutcracker, Wolves, Jewel Heart, and Cinderella.
