He studied art at the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague from where he graduated in 1963 as a professor of art.

Kylián include Sinfonietta, Dream Dances, Torso, and Overgrown Path. For Nacho Duato, he designed Danza, Bolero, and Arenal, among others.
Outside the Netherlands, he has worked frequently with Christopher Bruce for dance companies throughout the world, including Ballet Rambert, the English National Ballet (London Festival Ballet), the Cullberg Ballet, Gulbenkian, and the Houston Ballet.
