About Us
Rhythm Performing Arts is a multicultural organization, unifying everyone under one art form: DANCE. Our mission is to promote artistic and creative expression through dance and diverse performing arts at many private and public events, and festivals all across the GTA. We take every stride while encouraging community, diversity, teamwork, and leadership.
Founded in the Peel Region of Ontario in 2016, Rhythm Performing Arts sought to reflect the unique multicultural identity of Canada and cater to this diversity in all artistic spaces. We did so by amalgamating dance styles from all over the world, such as Contemporary, Hip Hop, Bollywood, Jazz, Indo-Jazz, Latin, Indian Classical, Folk and many more. Through many years of growth, Rhythm has spread the beauty of dance to people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities by combining the flare of performance artistry with dedicated technical instruction and training from experienced choreographers. Rhythm has expanded incredibly since it’s establishment, training 50-70 aspiring dancers and performers yearly, providing students with diverse and valuable opportunities to build full Broadway experiences; encompassing backstage management, costume design, acting, writing and dance as part of training. By providing a fast paced and ever-changing experience, we cultivate the many skills necessary to work in real-world professional productions and companies.
Rhythm Performing Arts has showcased our diverse and multicultural flare at many functions, weddings and special events in its many years of operation. We have performed in front of the former Prime Minister of Canada Stephen Harper in, have been the opening act for artists like Anjulie, Karl Wolf, JRDN, performed at the Pan Am Pre-Games Boxing Tournament, entertained guests at and various United Way Mississauga Community Fundraisers, have had the privilege of producing and directing 6 original 90 minute theatrical dance shows, have captivated audiences at the UofT Festival of Dance, Canada's largest dance festival, to name a few!
Multiculturalism is a very important value of ours as we work to integrate many different cultural aspects into our performances and events. We create a safe space that prioritizes inclusivity of all backgrounds, races, religions and experiences which can be felt in all our performances, relationships, engagements, and events we put together. Book us for your next function and experience the passion and dedication from one of GTA’s most beloved dance teams, or get in contact with any of our choreographers and instructors about lessons and dance training.
