ABOUT US
Inspired by our love for the art of ballet and a desire to support talented young dancers, my wife and I created the WBAC Grand Prix — one of the most prestigious international ballet competitions. We began this project with the goal of providing artists the opportunity to showcase their skills on the global stage, as well as to open new horizons for their professional growth and career opportunities.
The WBAC Grand Prix is not just a competition. It is a place where dancers from all over the world come together to exchange experiences, find inspiration, and feel the true power of the art of ballet. Our competition holds great significance for each participant, as it offers unique opportunities, including scholarships, medals, and connections with leading masters and educators.
Our team is proud to have created a platform that brings together participants and judges, helping everyone to explore new horizons in the dance world. We believe that every dancer, regardless of their level or experience, can learn something new and take a step forward with our support.
Moreover, our mission is to create opportunities for the development of international connections between ballet schools and theaters, offering participants a chance to work with outstanding teachers and artists. We believe in the power of ballet as a universal language, capable of uniting people, inspiring creativity, and showing that art knows no boundaries.
The WBAC Grand Prix is not just a competition. It is a large dance family where everyone feels supported and inspired. We are proud to help dancers reach new heights and open new doors for them in the world of ballet.
Empowering the Next Generation of Ballet Stars.
