At Rockit, we believe in creating a nurturing and supportive environment where every child feels accepted and loved. As one grateful parent shared, "For our children to feel so accepted and loved is heartwarming for us. You can see how they shine and know they have the power to hold their heads high even when they are having the worst week."
Our state-of-the-art studios have garnered international acclaim. A visiting artist from France expressed immense gratitude for the opportunity to train, create, and perform in our incredible facilities. These studios represent a valuable resource for artists in Australia, and we are proud to provide this platform for artistic expression.
But Rockit is not just about dance. We are everything a young girl needs, as another parent testified, "This school is everything I wished for myself as a child. My daughter has thrived in Rockit's environment. Safe, fun, caring, positive, and with a strong emphasis on self-esteem and body image. Everything a young girl needs. As a mother, I have always felt welcome. When life gets hard, Rockit is there to support my girl and sometimes myself. Thank you, Rockit. Forever in your debt."
Our impact extends beyond the walls of our institution. As one parent beautifully expressed, "You and your staff are so wonderful, and what you have created over the years will create a generation of caring people with empathy towards everyone in the community."

Reviews
"I can happily say that my family of 5 have been involved with this amazing dance studio since the beginning, ten years ago. Every member of our family has danced at different times and have loved every moment. It is extremely inclusive for all people and so much fun is had. Our daughter who has danced with Rockit since the start when she was 5 years old has had so many opportunities and has learnt so much just by following the values Rockit has in place."
"My daughter was three when she had a delay in gross motor skill development and Rockit was recommended by her Physio. She is now 10 and Rockit has been amazing for her movement, confidence and resilience. It has been a joy to watch my daughter grow up while dancing at Rockit. As a member of Ignite, I feel incredibly proud and blessed to see the baby that crawled and walked “late” dance so beautifully on stage and absolutely love doing so. Fundamental to all of this she is supported by a wonderful community of students and amazing, inspiring teachers. I highly recommend you try Rockit Performing Arts."
"RockIt have developed a unique, caring and nurturing culture with a very well strategised broad inclusion where people from all ages, passions for genres and raw abilities they come with have a chance to grow. The concerts are evidence of the hard work put in by staff and students and are always entertaining. RockIt is a great place to belong. Thoroughly recommend."
"My daughter has been dancing with Rockit for many years. Ballet, Jazz, Lyrical, tap, hip hop, heels and she absolutely loves it. Not only is she keeping fit and having fun, but she is also embracing diversity and inclusion. Rockit is more than a dance academy, it a safe community that nurtures and raises kids with confidence and social awareness. As I watch my daughter grow into a confident mature young woman, I am thankfully that she is apart of the Rockit family, who have provided the positive support she needed throughout her teen years. I’m also thankful for the Rise program, enabling her to give back to this beautiful community and develop career options."
"Rockit is truly the most wonderful dance studio. It presents the most happy postive vibe with a true family atmosphere. My child who lacked confidence has gone in leaps and bounds since starting with Rockit. Noni and team are such a breath of fresh air with such positive and encouraging attitudes that always naturally bring the best out in their students. It is a true credit to Noni and her wonderful crew. I know we will be in the Rockit family for years to come."
