My name is Kirsty and I’m the owner of diddi dance Central & North Liverpool & South Knowsley which launched in January 2022.
Dancing is my passion and I have always loved passing that on through my love of teaching. With a Master’s in Teaching & Learning, a PGCE in Performing Arts and a dance studies BA HONS degree along with over twelve years experience of secondary school teaching and many years of professional dance experience I have a broad expertise in dance. Since having my two boys I was always looking for places and activities to take them to and this is when I found diddi dance and started my own business.
