Nestled in Northcote bushland on the banks of Merri Creek you will find our dance venue. Plenty of parking in the surrounding streets, if you are putting this into your GPS do not put the unit number as that will take you to the incorrect location, check google maps below for an accurate location. This is the last building on the left-hand side of the road when driving.

Coaches

Around a decade ago RollerFit started as a group of women who wanted to get fit rolling around on basketball courts. Now, due to the appeal of our classes, we have locations all across the East coast of Australia. Meet our coaches of the Northcote RollerDance Classes.

Class Testimonials

I started going to RollerFit since the very beginning. I hadn’t been on roller skates before not even in my childhood and I found it really challenging to even stand. Everyone was really supportive and really helped me gain the confidence to keep learning and finally be able to skate properly. Stacey and the other coaches also helped me get my confidence to play roller derby.

Yvette

RollerFit is the most fun, addictive, and pressure-free fitness class I've experienced. Learning from a passionate skater like Stacey drives me to want to learn new things, and compliments my roller derby training.

Alexandra Robinson

I love RollerFit! I started to advance my footwork and agility skills on skates and I've already seen results! It's an amazing way to get fit and have fun.

Zoe

2.5 years down the track and I'm still loving RollerFit. I'm fitter than I have been in years, have met so many great people, and always enjoy learning new tips & tricks from the RollerFit instructors.

Sofi Sey

RollerFit has changed my life completely. I didn’t just find a place where I could learn how to skate properly and actually do it every week I have also found amazing people I can share this experience with. The best place to go to keep fit, learn new skills, have fun and socialise.
