He graduated from Riga Choreography School where he was taught by Valentin Blinov (Russian:).
He performed in Moscow for the first time in 1950.
At the height of career, Liepa was considered one of the finest male dancers in the world and one of the most versatile, at home in a wide range of roles.
In 1953 Liepa began studies in Moscow Choreography School in a class taught by Nikolay Tarasov and initially was developing as character-role dancer, yet upon graduation transformed into a classic ballet dancer.
After graduation from Moscow Choreography School in 1955 he returned to Riga and the Latvian Opera and Ballet Theatre.
The company of theatre went on road-show to Moscow during December of the same year, where Māris Liepa was noticed by one of the Bolshoi's prima ballerinas, Maya Plisetskaya.
