Liubov Kozharskaia is the founder of LK Ballet & Fitness Studio. A graduate of the Vaganova Ballet Academy in Saint Petersburg (class of Prof. T. Udalenkova), she spent 12 years with the Mariinsky (Kirov) Theatre under the patronage of Uliana Lopatkina and Irina Chistyakova, performing a wide range of classical and character roles, including choreography by Alexei Ratmansky, George Balanchine, Pierre Lacotte, Yury Smekalove and others. She holds the Academy’s pedagogical bachelor’s degree, is a certified Level 4 IDTA ballet teacher, and is additionally trained in general fitness and rehabilitation, allowing her to merge pure Vaganova tradition with safe, intelligent conditioning. Deeply involved with every student, Liubov’s vision is to share the beauty and benefits of ballet with all: committed young dancers, adult beginners, non‑professionals, children and seniors alike.
