Rio Rhythmics' Mission

To support people to improve their lives by bringing people together in an environment where they can connect with others in a healthy way. Where community is key, and everyone feels included, “at home” and a part of something bigger.  

Providing an opportunity to have healthy physical contact with others, which is essential to human health, and to improve people’s wellbeing through developing more mind-body connection.  

We do this through high-quality, professional Latin dance tuition with a focus on “dancing for life”, the social aspect of dancing, and also by sharing the South American culture. We strive to create a place and environment which is positive and rewarding for our team and clients alike.  

We are all about improving lives through Latin dance, culture and community.  

Welcome to our Tribe!

After moving to Brisbane, Australia he realised an opportunity to share his culture and passion for people and after running community dance classes opened the Rio Rhythmics doors officially in 1994.
