Children’s Activities Week – 13-17th May 2019

by

UK children join TV stars Dick & Dom and take on diddi dance’s Watch Me Fly Challenge as part of national fundraising campaign for autism in Children’s Activities Week

Groups of enthusiastic children all across the UK are set to take on a sponsored Watch Me Fly dance challenge with children’s toddler and preschool dance classes, diddi dance, as a challenge this week, 13th – 17th May, as part of a national campaign in Children’s Activities Week, to raise money to improve support for children with autism, with charity Caudwell Children.

The challenge will take place as part of the regular diddi dance classes and the children will swap their normal classes for the sponsored challenge as part of the national Children’s Activities Week campaign.

diddi dance children, from classes nationwide, will form part of an estimated 120,000 children across the country in completing the challenge as part of the national campaign to raise awareness and money to provide support for autistic children through the charity, Caudwell Children.

Autism directly affects over 2.5million people in the UK every day and it is proven that early detection and intervention is the most effective way of managing behaviour relating to autism. But across the UK families can regularly wait years to receive an autism assessment for their child and, once diagnosed, often have to fight for any kind of support.

The money raised from the sponsored challenge will fund assessments and practical support for autistic children at the new Caudwell International Children’s Centre, the UK’s first independent purpose-built centre dedicated to autism.

Activity Leader, Anne-Marie Martin, founder of diddi dance, said:
“We are proud to be a part of Children’s Activities Week and all of the children have had lots of fun practicing for our diddi dance Watch Me Fly challenge this week.

At diddi dance we are passionate about giving children the best start in life and by taking part in Children’s Activities Week we are taking that beyond our classes and helping other children as well.”

Children’s Activities Week is a partnership between the Children’s Activities Association, a not-for-profit membership organisation and national charity, Caudwell Children.

diddi dance wins at EWIF awards

by

Our very own diddi dance Founder Anne-Marie Martin was yesterday awarded the highest accolade at the EWIF awards 2019 – Inspirational Woman Franchisor 2019, sponsored by Little Voices.

We are delighted to be celebrating this most prestigious of awards for Anne-Marie at diddi dance HQ.

Anne-Marie was awarded the title at the EWIF ceremony yesterday, due to a hugely successful year last year, both as a franchisor, for her brand and network, and personally. This included delivering talks at local women’s networking events, sharing her experiences at franchising events, and inspiring the next generation at local schools, advocating franchising at every opportunity.

Improvements to the franchisee training and ongoing support, has seen the network feeling more motivated and empowered with even more webinars, face-to-face meetings, and forums. As a result, based on franchisee satisfaction, the franchise has been awarded 5* status for five years in a row. Whilst overall turnover increased, right across the network.

 

We also give huge congratulations to our franchisee Charlotte Foxley who runs diddi dance North Essex and South Suffolk, for winning Woman Franchisee of the Year 2019, Sponsored by McDonalds.

Charlotte runs a team of six teachers who cover 20 classes a week and works with several nurseries and special needs schools delivering diddi dance. Charlotte’s business is the first diddi dance franchisee to complete the Para Dance Instructor qualification in July.

And a massive well done to Emily Norman who runs diddi dance Bristol, for making it as a finalist in her category of  Young Woman in Franchising, a brilliant achievement.

We’re so proud of all of our diddi finalists and winners!

  • Tues 15th @ 9.45am – Prestwick South Parish Church Hall, Prestwick

A little bit more about Wendy:

Tell us a bit about yourself:

Hi. I’m Wendy and have recently moved to Kilmarnock, Ayrshire. I have the pleasure of sharing my life with my partner Stephen and my little dog Pepe. Family is the most important thing in my life and I love spending time with my nephew’s, Ruan and Finn, and my little niece, Ruby. I have always loved sport and come from a very sporting family, and my interests continue with taking part in sports activities and watching them live and on the TV. I love my holidays and have recently come back from my first ever ski trip.

What did you do before diddi dance?

For 13 years I have worked in my father’s financial services business at St. James’s Place Wealth Management. It’s been an interesting time and I have gained lots of valuable experiences from it, but I have always wanted to work with children, so now is the perfect chance to move into my chosen field with his retirement on the horizon. Most recently, I have also attained my Certificate in Montessori Pedagogy, where I studied as a distance learner through the London College of Montessori.

Why did you choose a diddi dance franchise?

I have wanted to work with children for a long time, but have never found the right avenue to go down with it. I also want to be self-employed and run my own business, so when I was told about diddi dance, it really did tick all the boxes. The ethos of diddi dance is exactly why I wanted to go into the teaching profession, and now I have an unbelievable opportunity with diddi dance. Exciting times ahead!

What are you most excited about for your new business?

Giving children the chance to explore with their own bodies, feel the freedom we should all feel with dance and music, and for them to have as much fun as possible to the funky styles of dance. I am looking forward to meeting new people and getting the grown-ups having as much fun as the children do!

And finally, which diddi dance theme are you looking forward to the most and why?

Irish, as people always think I’m Irish as I have red hair! Need to work on the accent though 🙂

Wendy’s classes will be starting with our Bollywood theme so don’t forget to book your FREE trial today!

Dress Up and Dance success for diddi dance Cannock Chase, Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield & North Walsall

by

diddi dance Cannock Chase, Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield & North Walsall recently took part in Macmillan Cancer Support’s Dress Up and Dance campaign and raised an amazing £410 with the help of all their current diddi dancers!

Natalie & Dawn who run diddi dance Cannock Chase ran the charity campaign in their classes from 26th to 30th June encouraging all participating diddis to get moving and grooving in aid of the charity’s Dress Up And Dance campaign.

Macmillan Cancer Support is a fantastic charity that provides all kinds of support to children and families affected by cancer. They help with financial worries, medical information, emotional support and much, much more. They’re also constantly campaigning for better cancer care for all because no one should face cancer alone.

We asked Natalie how the week went and how she felt about the amount all her classes raised and she said,

We have absolutely loved our Macmillan Dress Up and Dance week! Any excuse to dress up and have fun all whilst raising money and awareness for a great cause. Macmillan do an incredible job and by having the chance to help raise awareness for them is something we could not miss. All our parents and children across our classes have been fantastic in joining us in their fancy dress outfits for this great event! Everyone’s support and generosity has blown us away. Thank you all so much!

Well done to Natalie & Dawn and all the diddi who took part in dressing up and dancing that week. Here are a few images to show how much fun everyone had!

diddi dance Camden and Islington are now diddi dance North London!

by

As of today, diddi dance Camden, Crouch End, Finchley & Surrounding and diddi dance Islington, East Haringey & Surrounding will be merged back together under the management of Anuschka Socher.

The newly combined franchise will now be called diddi dance North London again and we couldn’t be more excited!! 🎉🎉

diddi dance Islington’s previous owner, Charlene Dinger, had this to say about her recent sale of her diddi dance:

Bittersweet feelings today as I say goodbye to my ‘diddi dance’ franchise! Have officially sold my business and am moving on to the next chapter. It’s been a 7 year journey that has shaped me and made me grow in ways I never would have known! Thank you to everyone that supported me & encouraged me – you were all an important part of that process and I couldn’t have done it without you! Lots of diddi love! 💕💕

Anuschka initally took over the North West London franchise in December 2015 from Charlene when she first moved back home to Canada and had been running it very successfully ever since. When the opportunity arose for Anuschka to take on the rest of the original North London franchise she jumped at the opportunity. We can’t wait to see what she does with her new extended business and how it continues to grow.
