Rock Center also offers Residence for students training far from home as well as an Academics program for grades 7-12.
STUDIOS
The Rock School is a beautiful, state-of-the-art facility on the southern tip of the Avenue of the Arts. The building has five floors, with a total of six dance studios that are each equipped with ballet barres, floor-length mirrors, sprung floors, stereo systems that are MP3 compatible, and a grand piano in each studio, with an upright piano in Studio F.
ROCK SCHOOL PARKING
The Rock School’s former parking lot at 1225 Washington Avenue remains closed due to the development of the Broad and Washington residential and commercial project. We advise our guests to use the Lincoln Square Parking Garage accessible at 15th Street between Washington Avenue and Carpenter Street. Validation for reduced fee parking can be attained at most retail outlets in the Lincoln Square Facility (eg. Target or Sprouts).
THE ROCK SCHOOL CAFÉ
The Rock School Café is a comfortable location for dancers to eat their daily meals. Our Café offers delicious and healthy meals, snacks, and beverages for Professional Division dancers.
The Rock School Café endeavors to use sustainable practice and buy from producers that support similar efforts. We also support local food producers for the social and economic health of the region and the well being of The Rock School community.
Professional Division commuters may inquire about meal cards by emailing registration@therockschool.org.
THE ROCK SCHOOL BOUTIQUE
The Rock School offers an in-house boutique for ballet basics for the convenience of our students and parents. The Rock School Boutique is located on the 2nd floor of Rock Center and offers a variety of dance wear, Rock School merchandise, gifts, and accessories. You may also shop securely online!
