Find your rhythm!
Our learning method for dancers, dance trainers and dance teachers

Instead of getting lost in theory and counting, dancers should learn to feel the rhythm in their bodies, hear it in the music and translate it into movement. This will later enable them to move confidently to the tempo, beat or rhythm of the music. 

The RHYTH mottoMECALITY® reads:
"Forget counting and feel the rhythm!"

Complex rum bar rhythms presented in a simple and constructive way!
