Tap has been a part of the dance world since the 19th century but has grown in popularity over the last two decades. Tap dance is a unique and enjoyable dance form that develops students’ rhythmic ability both musically and physically.
Tap gives students the ability to connect to their inner metronome making them a well-rounded dancer and musician in turn (bonus!)

Street Dance continues to evolve and influence popular culture, just as jazz has done for the last century.
Contemporary
Contemporary dance is an ever-growing and changing dance form now offered at ROCKIT for all ages.
Contemporary aims to develop students’ endurance, coordination, and flexibility in a different style of dance and is a great and fun way for students to connect their mind to their body.
Contemporary students will learn fluidity in their dance movements and a stronger connection to music. These classes will offer different and engaging contemporary styles including floor work, improvisation and choreography.
Deep Stretch
Deep stretch is a class dedicated for students to release tension held within the body physically and possibly mentally as well.
Each week students will be given new ways to stretch their bodies and release the weeks stress and tension in a relaxing and supportive way.
Flexibility is a large part of stretching, but this class also focuses on nerve stretches, which is extremely important for dance and musical theatre.
