POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Okay… we’re still taking this one in.

33 Rhythm Factory dancers went to Dance Star Cape Town Qualifiers this weekend.

And every. single. one. qualified for Croatia. 🇭🇷

That’s 33 dancers.

33 different personalities.
Different ages, stories and
different levels of experience.

But they all stood on Business!!!

And honestly, the result isn’t even the part we keep thinking about.

It’s the little things.

The dancers cheering for each other backstage.
Fixing each other’s costumes.
The nerves.
The laughs.
The tears.
The “are we next?” every 2 minutes 😂
The hugs after coming off stage.
The absolute chaos in between.

That’s our favourite part.

Because somewhere between rehearsals, corrections, music changes, costume drama, tired dancers and “one more time”… this group became a team.

🇭🇷 🇭🇷 🇭🇷
We’ll let that sink in for a minute.

To our 33…thank you for trusting us, pushing through, and showing up.

To our teachers, choreographers, parents, families and everyone who helped get our dancers onto that stage….Thank you.

Croatia… we’ll see you in 2027. ❤️

A healer by day, a dancer by night 🫶🏽

This one feels extra special for us at TRF.

We’ve watched Nina grow up with us since she was 11, from a little girl in our classes to the incredible young woman she is today. She’s found her own way, continued to pursue her dance, and now she’s teaching and passing on what she’s learnt to the next generation.

Seeing her journey recognised by UCT makes us incredibly proud. ❤️

Go have a read and hear a little more about Nina’s journey.

We’re so proud of you and excited to see where this journey takes you next. ❤️

When there’s a vision, you find a way.

Huge shout out to @radarr.__ and @nina9petersen for seeing this one through, and to @not_ace333 | @ace_marcus_23 for bringing every top to life.

Who knew a fence, some spray paint, and a stack of plain T-shirts could become one of the highlights of the day?

Safe to say …we LOVE it 😍🫰🏽
