Empire Show Ballet
International Company
Yulianna founded and directed Empire Show Ballet — a professional international show ballet company with simultaneous active performance contracts in 3–4 countries at a time.
This level of operation places it firmly in the category of a professional international touring company — with Yulianna as its creative and operational leader across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
Active performance contracts running in parallel across multiple countries at the same time.
As artistic director, Yulianna was responsible for all choreography, repertoire selection, performer training, costume design direction, and the overall artistic vision of every production performed internationally.
Running a school of 150 students requires artistic mastery, institutional leadership, curriculum development, and the ability to inspire sustained commitment.
Empire Belly Dance School
Ukraine
Yulianna founded and directed Empire Belly Dance — a professional belly dance school in Ukraine that grew to 150 active enrolled students before being disrupted by the war.
The school operated a full curriculum covering classical, folk, and contemporary styles, producing competition-ready dancers and professional performers — many of whom went on to win national and international titles.
Orient Empire Festival
Ukraine · Odessa
Yulianna is the founder and organizer of the Orient Empire Festival Ukraine — one of the largest and most prestigious international belly dance championships in Eastern Europe, held in Odessa.
The festival draws competitors from more than 20 countries worldwide, making it a true international event and a landmark occasion in the global belly dance calendar.
Organizing a major international competition requires recognition at the highest levels — only those with established authority and global professional networks can attract competitors from 20+ nations.
This positions Yulianna not merely as a performer or teacher, but as an institutional figure whose influence actively shapes the standards and direction of belly dance as an international competitive art form.
