Dmitri Roudnev also offers private lessons during the entire year. Private lessons can be supplemental and the student does not have to leave the school she attends currently. This training is unique and promises accelerated progress.
The joy these dancers feel to no longer have hip injuries, back pain
or shin splints are Roudnev’s greatest accomplishments.
“OH my gosh! My directors have both told me how much I have improved after one month of private training with you. Even the other company dancers are amazed. I always do your warm up tendus and plies before class. It really is making a HUGE difference!”
  - email letter to Dmitri Roudnev from Tyler Burkett,
Principal, Los Angeles Ballet

“Dear Dmitri,
Let me say THANK YOU so much. Those little secrets of our profession that you have shared with me have brought great results. And it is not just how I feel. I am also getting many compliments from my director and dancers in the company, because they see a big difference and a huge progress. I warmly wish you to have many disciples who are ready to hear you. In my case ,your discoveries were the missing link in my ballet technique. I have danced for more than 20 years and I am grateful to you for extending my career.”

"I didn't know a person could improve this much in three short weeks! Traveling from Michigan to Memphis to train privately with Dmitri was worth the trip! Some of the summer programs our daughter has attended include Central Penn. Youth Ballet and National Ballet of Canada. None of these compare to the personal one-on-one training she received with Dmitri. Imagine all of this in a kind and caring classroom. His ability to see what is holding a dancer back in training ....creates an environment that is positive, encouraging and easy to learn. Dmitri's technique has not only eliminated our daughter's chronic hip pain which she has struggled with for four years, but it has lengthened her muscles and strengthened her back. Her arabesque is quickly improving, her turning
more consistent and she has developed a beautiful line.
