Seeking for professional challenges other than Grigorovich's works, along with his wife Olga, who was also a dancer with the company, he decided to leave Krasnodar Ballet Theatre. At the invitation of his old teacher he moved to Lublin, Poland, where it was planned to create a new ballet company in Lublin Musical Theatre. He started working there since January 2007 bit soon it appeared that the plan failed, so he engaged with ballet company of Warsaw Teatr Wielki, under leadership of Jolanta Rybarska.

In 2009, when the company under direction of Krzysztof Pastor was elevated to the rank of Polish National Ballet, he was already a soloist and in September 2010 after Patrice Bart's premiere of Chopin the Romantic Artist he was promoted to first soloist. With Polish National Ballet, he performed in Saint Petersburg, Shanghai, Seville, Barcelona, Huston, New York, Washington, The Hague and Vilnius.
