Rhythmworks started in 1990 teaching tap dancing as a form of exercise and stress relief for all ages and genders and for those with or without former dance training.  Over the years the studio has grown to support the largest male tap troupe in the Western Cape.

Twenty one years later students are still enjoying the fun aspects of tap. Exercising, ridding themselves of stress and learning a specialty dance form with intricate technique.

In recent years students from Rhythmworks have won various competitions including the Western Province 2007 Best of the Best competition.  The studio also participates in various charity shows and every second year puts on their own show called Tap Crazy.
