Yachmennikov started dancing at age 6 with Russian folk dances in the choreographic ensemble "Mozaika" in Saint-Petersburg.

Russian ballet legend Natalia Makarova came to the Dutch National Ballet for the rehearsals with its dancers. WHen she saw Yachmennikov's rehearsal in the ballet La Bayadère in the leading part of Solor, she recommended him as a soloist for this ballet.
