At the age of seven she appeared playing her own music-compositions live on TV and won her first piano competition. She completed her piano studies at the State Conservatory in Rostov-on-Don (Russia) and at the Vienna Conservatory (Austria), both of which she completed with distinction. Anastasia continued her education at the Academy of Music in Hannover (Germany). She participated in the solo classes of Prof. Karl- Heinz Kaemmerling until his sudden death.
