But to bring the topic back to free software, there's always pydance.  
They don't need to play it with a dance pad if all they're doing is 
learning rhythm.  (If they do get a dance pad, it's good exercise 
too.)

Frets On Fire might be good as well, if his students hate disco.  

The benefit these have over other programs like solfege and any random 
metronome program is instant objective feedback of their rhythm, 
which I know helps me learn things faster.
