diddi dance is celebrating 15 years of teaching children to dance!!!

April 30, 2018 by Rebecca

2018 marks 15 years since diddi dance, the much-loved national dance classes for little ones, launched its first class in Islington, London. To celebrate, diddi dancers & their friends are invited to don their best party attire and attend special party themed dance classes filled with dancing props, games, balloons, bubbles and much more!

toddler dance preschool birthday celebrate partyOver 500 diddi dance classes across the UK will change from the regular 45-minute class structure to that of a special birthday party theme that will be the talk of the tots from the 4th to 10th June 2018. diddi dancers old and new are welcome to attend any of the special party classes during the week in their party best and help us wish diddi dance a happy 15th birthday!

The week-long celebration is an opportunity for diddi dance to give back to the people that helped them grow into the award-winning, national preschool activity that has over 40 franchisees running classes from Aberdeenshire down to Plymouth and has seen over 175,000 children attending classes since the beginning. There will be party goodies for all to take home and 3 competitions running across the national diddi dance Facebook, Twitter & Instagram pages with the chance to win a free diddi dance Birthday Party, a free half-term of diddi dance classes or a diddi dance goodie bag choc full of all our fantastic merchandise, so your diddi one can take the dancing fun home with them as well!

Founded by professional dancer Anne-Marie Martin in 2003, diddi dance has developed over the years to offer a unique, innovative and fun way to get young boys & girls on their feet & moving. Welcoming all little ones from 16 months up to five years and using Anne-Marie’s own original music & choreography, diddi dance covers a variety of dance styles catering to all tastes. This week-long celebration is the perfect fit for the dance classes, which try to inspire children to find the enjoyment of movement from a young age but also improve physical fitness & activity amongst the under 5s inline with the UK Government’s Childhood Obesity Action Plan.

Speaking to Anne-Marie about the milestone she said:

When I was first asked by some parents in North London to start something dance related for their toddlers I didn’t think then that 15 years later diddi dance would be all across the UK encouraging thousands of children to be physically active & finding their confidence through dance. I also love that diddi dance has given other people the opportunity to find a better work/life balance through our franchise opportunity. It’s so exciting to be celebrating our 15th birthday this year and I can’t wait for our party week to share the fun with everyone!”

This celebration comes at a fantastic time for diddi dance as their recognition across the UK continues to grow. Seen as one of the leading providers of preschool dance classes, diddi dance has been featured on Strictly Come Dancing, held partnerships with Little Dish & PJ Masks, worked with charities such as MacMillan Cancer Support & Youth Sport Trust, won many top industry awards and been the go-to class for celebrities such as Amanda Holden, Sara Cox, Katie Price & many more.

diddi dance on the Importance of Physical Activity for Under 5s

April 12, 2018 by Rebecca

As a parent we all know how important it is for our children to be physically active but did you know that such habits could be set by the age of 5?

How children view activities and classes at an early age can impact how they continue to view them into later life. Therefore, classes in the preschool market are key to get involved in so toddlers can be inspired to see an activity as engaging, encouraging and most of all FUN while as a parent we can see the health and educational benefits behind them.

Sports, music and drama are fantastic activities to get involved in for this age group however our passion is for dancing. Moving to music is a natural instinct when you are a baby and we believe dance is a great non-competitive, gender-neutral way of getting very young children physically active.

One great benefit of your little one attending a dance class is the active brain development they will receive from it. The development of the brain is most rapid within the first 3 years of a child’s life, so by taking part in an activity that encourages repetition, which is how the brain learns and improves, your child will develop at a faster pace. As well as repetition being important for brain development, crossing the midline is also a helpful task. By performing multiple movements throughout a class that go across the body from right to left but also explore top to bottom and front to back – all of which are midlines – children are encouraging the connection between the brain and the body.

Dance not only helps with brain development but also with core physical skills such as hand/eye coordination and gross & fine motor skills. It also encourages creativity, spatial awareness and language/speech development. Dance also helps build confidence, too. Many parents don’t realise how important it is to start building their little one’s confidence from an early age, however the Government’s standards set for the Early Year’s Foundation Stage Framework state that from birth to the age of 5 a child’s development through socialisation is vital for them to fulfil their potential in later life. Dance is perfect for this through repetition, sharing and close contact with others – both their age & older. This is also a key part of Ofsted’s readiness for school provision.

Being physically active also promotes a healthy lifestyle. Childhood obesity is still very high and with the UK Government launching a campaign to encourage physical activity from early years, instilling a schedule of activities where children are encouraged to burn off energy in a safe & fun environment will help set the habit of being active naturally rather than forced. They will see it as enjoyable and then more likely to always want to be active and keep fit as they grow up.

Anne-Marie started diddi dance classes back in 2003 when she saw a gap in the market for funky dance classes, encouraging boys as much as girls with different dance styles apart from ballet. Classes are delivered in an age-appropriate way, encouraging even the shyest of children, over time, to participate and engage with moving to music. Parents and carers stay in our classes and this is key to children’s confidence growing plus they then not only get used to engaging with other children but other adults, as well. We also take into account all aspects of development children need to be receiving at their young age and make sure our classes are utilising all key areas for brain and physical development.

Dance is great for the whole family and if you can’t get to or find a class locally for your preschooler then there are lots you can do at home:

Play music regularly – Children have a natural love for music and will start to develop a sense of rhythm by listening to different types of music regularly. The music will also give them the freedom to start moving and grooving along to their favourite songs. We have some original diddi dance music you can purchase from our website or iTunes if you are wanting something age appropriate but different from nursery rhymes.

Watch dance on TV or YouTube – Children often copy and mimic the actions they see from others, especially when they watch the bubbly and enthusiastic presenters on children’s TV shows. There are plenty of children’s channels and programmes that include dance so encourage them to watch these and dance along. We also have a diddi dance YouTube channel with fun video clips featuring specific dance moves from our theme dances.

Try some basic moves – By showing your little ones some basic moves such as clapping, marching or stamping whilst waving, moving will become easier for them. By isolating body parts, for example, just moving shoulders up and down or wiggling your hips children will begin to explore different movements while building their co-ordination skills. On our Facebook page, we explore one basic move each week to help toddler both in and out of class perfect it!

Use props – Give your young ones something to dance with – an instrument such as a tambourine or toy guitar or props like pom poms or hula-hoops. Using instruments to shake, tap or bang along to the beat will help them to pick up the rhythm and props will help them to enhance and exaggerate their movements.

So why not have your toddler pick their favourite songs, get on your feet with them and get everyone moving to the beat! If you are wanting to join a local diddi dance class then book your FREE trial today!

diddi dance Franchisee wins at 2018 mumandworking awards

March 26, 2018 by Rebecca

The winners in the prestigious 2018 mumandworking Awards were recently revealed in an inspiring, high-rofile ceremony, as hosted by NatWest, and Charlotte Foxley from diddi dance North Essex & South Suffolk was amongst them!

These pioneering awards were launched over 8 years ago to celebrate the UK’s leading lights in the world of flexible working – those amazing and inspiring individuals, businesses, charities and networks demonstrating and showcasing how working practice and family-life can go hand in hand with huge potential benefits for all involved.

Charlotte Foxley from diddi dance North Essex & South Suffolk was revealed as the winner in the Franchisee of the Year category. Several categories were judged by a panel of leading business women, very familiar with the challenges juggling a family and a career can bring. Susannah Schofield OBE, said this about Charlotte “I loved her ethics and passion to deliver the franchise above and beyond, more than just about making money however – Charlotte runs her business to make a difference”.

Charlotte said: “Winning Franchisee of the Year at the mumandworking awards was just such an honour and a BIG surprise! I am just so proud of what I have done with diddi dance in the 2.5 years since I opened. Thank you to everyone who has been to one of our classes, booked us for a party, had a demo and to all the nurseries and pre-schools who we see throughout the year. I am especially proud of the launch last year of our special needs only classes which are now available after school and during the holidays for children with additional needs up to age 8.’’

Never has the importance of flexible working been so documented. ‘Mumpreneurs’ continue to generate billions for the UK economy, supporting in excess of 200,000 jobs and while we have witnessed significant positive changes in government policy towards flexible working in recent years, there’s still a long way to go. Research in 2016 suggested improvements in flexible working opportunities for mums would enable and empower huge numbers to return to the workplace with the potential to generate a massive £60+ billion boost to the UK economy.

Organisers were delighted therefore at the wealth and standard of the submissions for this year’s awards, which were run with media partner Key Women in Business. Hundreds of nominees entered, across 14 exciting categories ranging from ‘Flexible Business of the Year’, to ‘Inspiring Business Parent’ with special categories for bloggers, team members, franchisors and technology and innovation. 2018 saw the highest number of finalists ever plus a record number of votes from throughout the UK.

Suzanne Borrell, Events Director for mumandworking.co.uk concluded:

‘The wealth of nominations, the thousands of votes, our esteemed VIP judging panel and the range of nominees reflects the significant and growing support for the promotion of flexible working. The really exciting news is that so many finalists seem to have used the event as a springboard – they made amazing connections, were inspired to tackle something new or take on a challenge or just dared to dream bigger. So this isn’t just about one day – but what happens next – and we are privileged to be involved. Huge congratulations to all our finalists on their success!”

All about diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington

February 16, 2018 by Rebecca

diddi dance Franchisee Rebecca who runs diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington recently became the 4th diddi dance franchise to be fully accredited by the Children’s Activity Association. To read all about her recent achievement just click here.

Because of this success, we at diddi dance wanted to take the time to tell you all about Rebecca and diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington here!

How long have you been with diddi dance?

I have been a diddi dance Franchisee for 15 months.

What did you do before joining diddi dance?

I studied Dance and Drama at college, after which I gained employment in Sales and Marketing for a media advertising company. I left my employment to raise my two children and from there I needed something to suit being a full time primary carer for my children. Working with children was something I really wanted to do as my two are growing up so quickly.

What do you love most about diddi dance and running your own business?

I love diddi dance because of the children mainly. I have built so many wonderful friendships with the children and their grown up who brings them to class. Running my own business means I can make my own hours and still be there for my own children when they finish school, no after school clubs or holiday clubs needed.

What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of diddi dance?

The best thing is just simply the people I have met, not just my wonderful children and grown ups, but the people who rent their rooms to me so I can hold classes. All the other wonderful ladies who are franchisees at diddi dance who are such an inspiration. The fantastic ladies at Head Office, without them I would not be here as the support they give is outstanding. I have also just had a teacher come on board with me and I am so lucky to have her she is amazing. The people and relationships I have with all these people, make me feel I am not on my own, something that was a concern when I thought about working for myself.

What has been a highlight for you since taking on your diddi dance?

Seeing children flourish, sometimes when a child first comes they are so shy and won’t leave their grown ups side, but when you get the break through and they come up to you and chat and dance away like they have been coming to class forever, really melts my heart. I love when grown ups tell me they speak of me at home and they run into class excitedly to show me something. Just heart warming. I love the 0-5 age group, never a dull moment.

What is something you are looking forward to as you continue with your diddi dance franchise?

I love it when I welcome younger siblings to diddi dance after their older brother or sister has left us for nursery or school. I see it happening more often now I have been running for a while, and it’s so nice to say hello again.

What do you enjoy most about your diddi dance?

My diddi dance allows me, flexibility, fantastic opportunity to meet new people and build relationships and work with the fantastic children I see every day.

What do you enjoy most about being your own Boss?

The freedom it has given me to carry on being a Mum to my children. I know when I grew up my mum was home for me after school and I always wanted to do that for my children too.

What does the CAA accreditation mean to you?

I think this accreditation is a fantastic way to show just how passionate diddi dance and I are about the quality of our classes. So much thought hard work and dedication goes into the classes and the process of a child’s time with us at diddi dance is carefully considered. We follow rules and procedures to ensure the classes are safe, reliable and reach the high standard in quality.

And finally, what is your favourite diddi dance theme and why?

I love the Jive theme, so energetic and the Song Mr Wolf is fantastic. I am however so looking forward to the Country theme in a couple of terms time, finally an excuse to shout Yeeee Hahhhh. In class

diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington receives CAA Gold Accreditation

February 16, 2018 by Rebecca

The team at diddi dance, the brand behind the much loved preschool dance classes, are extremely proud to announce their franchise diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington has achieved Gold accreditation from the Children’s Activities Association (CAA). The CAA is the only not-for-profit, industry-led association to set and raise standards in all organised children’s activities across the UK and this achievement clearly showcases the team at diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington’s passion for excellence.

Set-up by leading industry experts in 2015, including diddi dance Founder Anne-Marie Martin, the establishment of the CAA (a Community Interest Company) has revolutionised the children’s activities sector. After Anne-Marie completed the accreditation process for diddi dance in 2016, she decided to offer the same accreditation to each diddi dance Franchise. This past month Anne-Marie & diddi dance were thrilled to personally accredit franchisee Rebecca Hall and her franchise diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington.

Over 200,000 children a week now attend a CAA member activity and it is a truly fantastic endorsement for diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington to be part of this ground-breaking national initiative. Rebecca’s commitment to achieving Gold for her franchise shows her dedication to demonstrate to her industry peers and her fellow diddi dance franchisees that she excels at what she does as well as giving her parents the reassurance they deserve when selecting the best classes for their little ones.

Rebecca opened her first class for diddi dance Wigan & Leigh in November 2016 and within her first year achieved both her Bronze & Silver CAA accreditations. She started her second year by expanding her franchise to include the Warrington area and has now become the franchisee with the youngest franchise at only 1 year and 3 months running to achieve Gold accreditation.

It is staggering to learn that before the CAA, there was no national, independent association in the UK for the children’s activity sector as a whole. Through the development of the CAA Code of Practice and via their thorough accreditation, for the first time, parents can now easily make simple, informed decisions when choosing from the wealth of children’s activities out there. Just by asking whether the provider is a CAA member, a parent or carer can get reassurance on important issues such as insurance, health and safety, criminal record checks, training, qualifications, class content and much more.

As one parent said regarding the CAA –

With so many clubs and classes to choose from it’s so hard to know which are the best and what I should be asking when I leave my children in the care of a class leader. In the past I just wrongly assumed kids’ activities must have to be regulated. Knowing that the CAA has asked those important questions to help keep my child safe is fantastic – so now I just look for their logo!”

Having achieved Gold CAA accreditation means that diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington has been independently verified as having met or exceeded all the necessary elements of the CAA Code of Practice. This accomplishment offers parents peace of mind when selecting an activity from the myriad of providers out there.

Anne-Marie, commented on the accreditation process and Rebecca’s success:

Using the CAA accreditation system to ensure all our franchisees are performing to not only our high standards but also a nationally recognised association too is so important to us. It’s fantastic seeing our fourth franchise gain Gold accreditation. We’re so proud of Rebecca achieving this so quickly after starting her franchise and being so new to running a business. She’s a great asset to our network and well worthy of the full accreditation.”

Adding to this Rebecca of diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington said:

I think this accreditation is a fantastic way to show just how passionate diddi dance and I are about the quality of our classes. So much thought, hard work and dedication goes into the classes and the process of a child’s time with us at diddi dance is carefully considered. We follow rules and procedures to ensure the classes are safe, reliable and reach the high standard in quality.”

Congratulations again to Rebecca and her franchise. If you would like more information about diddi dance Wigan, Leigh & Warrington visit the Facebook page here or read all about them by clicking here

They spoke with franchisee Tatiana and some parents about why diddi dance is great for toddler in helping them to develop their social and creative skills.
