From the reviews
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.
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.
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.
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.
Your first ballet class at Roudnev Ballet Training
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
