About

Alexander Korobtsov, born in Mogilev, Belarus, began his ballet journey at 6.

Immediately after graduation, Alexander received an invitation to join the cast of the Bolshoi Theatre of Belarus and, in two years, to join the World Ballet Company.

Dreaming of conquering the peak of a high mountain, Alexander finds inspiration in the main character of the cartoon “Ninth,” admiring his purposefulness and loyalty to friends. Despite his admiration for various characters, Alexander admits his least favorite ballet role is Albert from “Giselle,” as he feels remorseful for deceiving Giselle, leading to her tragic demise.

In ballet, Alexander’s most minor favorite move is the fondue in the middle. However, his love for ballet shines through in his favorite ballet, “La Bayadère,” particularly identifying with the character Solor.
