The following example uses a DoubleAnimation to rotate the textblock. The textblock performs a full rotation over a duration of 20 seconds and then continues to repeat the rotation.
[XAML]
<TextBlock
Name='MyRotatingText'
Margin='20'
Width='640' Height='100' FontSize='48' FontWeight='Bold' Foreground='Teal'
>
This is rotating text
<TextBlock.RenderTransform>
<RotateTransform x:Name='MyRotateTransform' Angle='0' CenterX='230' CenterY='25'/>
</TextBlock.RenderTransform>
<!-- Animates the text block’s rotation. -->
<TextBlock.Triggers>
<EventTrigger RoutedEvent='TextBlock.Loaded'>
<BeginStoryboard>
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation
Storyboard.TargetName='MyRotateTransform'
Storyboard.TargetProperty='(RotateTransform.Angle)'
From='0.0' To='360' Duration='0:0:10'
RepeatBehavior='Forever' />
</Storyboard>
</BeginStoryboard>
</EventTrigger>
</TextBlock.Triggers>
</TextBlock>
