He started practicing classical dance at the age of 4.5 years in the studio at the Chisinau Palace of Pioneers. He studied at the Moscow Academic Choreographic School (1983-1984), Odessa Ballet School (1984), Kishinev Musical College named. Stefan Nyagi (1985).

In 1986 he entered the Perm State Choreographic School , which he graduated in 1991 in the class of Alexander G. Sakharov (specialty - ballet dancer). In 1991 he joined the Bolshoi Opera and Ballet Theater of Belarus . The dancer is a pronounced characteristic, acting talent.

In 1992, he starred in the movie "Dancing Ghosts" based on the story by Yuri Korotkov "Willis." In the credits there is a slightly different surname - Poklitar (the role of the Gene Demin).

In 1994 he entered the Belarusian Academy of Music at the established department of choreography.

The ballet master's diploma performance was Igor Stravinsky's Fairy Kiss, staged in 1999 at the Bolshoi Ballet Theater of the Republic of Belarus.

The first fame of Rada Poklitaru brought miniatures created by him for the dancers, participants of international competitions of ballet dancers. The creative union of the young choreographer with soloists of the Minsk Musical Theater, Yulia Dyatko and Konstantin Kuznetsov, turned out to be especially fruitful. Among the works created by the creative trio are miniatures: “Bagatel” to Beethoven’s music, Belarusian Liturgy, His Music to Blackmore’s music, Adagio to Tchaikovsky’s music, Improvisation against a wall ivy-twined to Bach’s music, “ Three Georgian Songs ”,“ Barcarolla ”to the music of Offenbach , as well as one-act performances“ Moments ”based on the poetry of C.
