Roudnev Ballet Training 920 3rd Avenue, Rockford, IL 61104

"We returned to training with Dmitri when my 16 year old daughter wanted to work on fouettés and prepare for summer intensive auditions. Within 5 days on Skype, Dmitri had her able to do 16 fouettés and feeling more ready for auditions for several prestigious summer programs. His attention to detail, passion for the task at hand, and his ballet method produce real results."

"Dmitri is the finest ballet instructor I know. Highly recommend his classes."

"If you or someone you know is serious about learning classical ballet, Dmitri is the best ballet instructor the area. He is a serious teacher with a great sense of humor. He will make sure your technique is perfection. My daughter has scoliosis, but you could not tell during his instructions. She chose him specifically for private lessons because of his high expectations and I am able to observe his methodology, which is outstanding."

"My daughter, 15, has been taking private ballet lessons from Roudnev Ballet Training for 2 yrs. She has vastly improved in her ballet technique, and this training has helped her improve in her other dances classes as well. Highly recommend for a student serious about ballet training."

"Dimitri Roudenev is the best teacher in Illinois. Specializing in the classical Russian style, Mr.Roudenev has the knowledge and ability to take anyone's level of technique far beyond what they thought they were capable of. After just half a year taking private lessons with Mr.Roudenev, I have been accepted to both the Milwaukee Ballet and the Royal Winnipeg Ballet. Just a brief look into his previous accolades proves his seniority, and you can find teachers from the Midwest to Moscow who know his name. It is truly incredible that a man of such talent is available to teach in an area starved for ballet. Anyone who wants to pursue classical dance as a career would do well to become his student."
