Hi, and welcome to the next episode of DDI Dance Series. It's been a while, guys. I'm sorry, I do apologise. Um, but we're gonna get better at it. We have a little scheduled professional studio time booked for this week. So we're excited to get in with a team and just get chatting and hopefully get some content created for the next few weeks for the podcast because we love doing it and we know that you guys love it. The feedback that we've had has been so good. Um, so yes, we promise we're gonna get better. Hope you guys are enjoying the Easter holidays. I mean, I don't know if you can hear that right now, but that is the rain and the hailstones are banging off my window, so it's not like we've had much sun. Um, but I hope you guys have had a good time and that you have got up to lots of exciting stuff for the kids, or not, maybe you've just chilled, and that's also fine. I've actually really enjoyed just doing nothing with the kids and just like we camped out in the living room and we've been having movie nights and all of that kind of cute stuff, so it's been really really fun. Um, so yeah, hope you guys have had a good time. We had our Easter camps last week, so we had cheer camp, which was amazing, we had an aerial camp, which was really really good. Quite a lot of new we aerials happened that day, and we also had musical theatre, which was so good. Like, I actually can't believe how good it was. I honestly really really want to start musical theatre. So, if it's something that you know that your kids would love and enjoy, please let me know because I am trying to nail down a musical theatre coach. We've got Miss Sophie loves musical theatre, and I'm like trying to get her into a course, like we're we're doing all the things trying to get it to happen because can't believe how good they were, they were so so good. Um, so yes, that's what happened last week. Really, really good wee week, and yeah, hopefully the kids all enjoyed the camps as well. Um, we have some really really exciting news about our show. Um, we're kind of keeping everything a little bit on the the down low just now because it's not booked, um, but just know that it's not going to be on this side of the summer holidays. Um, we've had a couple of people been like, oh, what's when's the show this year? What's the details? Da da da da. And we obviously want to keep you guys in the loop as much as possible. We've got big, big plans, and it'll all make sense once we announce it, because you'll be like, ah, that's the reason why they're doing it then, and da da da. But I promise it's coming and it's coming very soon, and you're not going to want to miss it, it's gonna be absolutely incredible. Like, every year, we're like, Oh, this is the best, this is the best, but the butterflies I have right now for this is honestly gonna be insane. So keep a little eye on your inbox for that. Uh, we've obviously got our worlds teams that have gained some bids in the last couple of comps. Uh, we're incredible guys, we're so good. So we released a little Instagram page for them um just so that we can like document their journey and yeah, we're just kind of using it to like be the platform of all things worlds, and we're we're like pointing people in that direction if they're wanting to get in contact with us for sponsorships, all of that stuff, and it just keeps it a little bit separate from the school because we've got certain coaches that are on our like socials for like the main school, and then we've got obviously people that are just dealing with the world stuff, so um, it helps us keep that a little bit separate. We've got lots of really fun um fundraising things coming up. One of the things that I wanted to pop on here to hopefully get everybody involved in is we've just had a really big spring clean because we're moving house um next month, which is really exciting. But I needed to go through my wardrobe and clean out all of the stuff that no longer fits me, all of the stuff that no longer fits the kids, and we're gonna take all of the I managed to get four bin bags, which I thought was pretty good. Um I was impressed with myself. So we're gonna take them to the cash for clothes and whatever money is raised from that. I'm gonna put into the pot for the world teams because we have got a big figure to try and raise. Um, but we've got lots of stuff coming up, so if anybody wants to get involved, please let us know. If anybody's clearing out clothes, please let us know. Bring them in bin bags to the studio, we will take them off your hands. Um, sometimes I always think like that's what puts me off actually clearing out is like what do I do with it? Like, I hate doing dump runs, like so let us take your rubbish. Um, we've got lots of just different exciting things coming up. We're gonna go to bagpacking and all of that stuff. So let us know if these are things that you would like to support us on, and obviously, we can give you some more information. Obviously, we are back at classes next week, so next Monday, the 20th of April, which is really exciting. We obviously I'm sure you all understand this, but we spend like all term being like that. Oh my gosh, we're shattered, we need a break, blah blah blah. And then when it gets to the break, we're like, we want to be back at classes, we miss the kids. So we're really excited to be back on Monday. Um, we obviously don't have show work to work towards as such, but we are planning on doing a little like open week the last week of classes. So just before we finish for summer, we're gonna have a little open week where all the mums and dads and grannies and grandpas and aunties and uncles can come and actually watch the classes that we are doing, so that's exciting, and we will obviously need to start working hard for some amazing routines for that. So that is what we are gonna do when we are back at classes next week. Um, and obviously, we will give you guys more information on that very, very soon. Um, but yeah, hopefully that was helpful, and we obviously just want to try and keep these up to date as much as possible. Um, but yes, lots of exciting things happening. We had a little strategy day on I think it was Thursday, where me, Miss Ashley, Miss Sophie and Miss Amy got together and we just sat and like thought about all the things that we've got coming up, like how we can make this show be the best show ever, all of those things. Um, so we are very, very excited to bring that all to you um over the next few weeks. So, yes, I hope you guys are well, and I promise we're gonna get better at these podcasts. I'm gonna get more consistent. I know I said that the last time, but I promise we're trying hard. Um, and once we've recorded all our professional content and we're studio, um, that'll have like lots of weeks worth of content to to bring to you guys. But yes, let us know if there's anything you want from us, if you'd like us to talk about a certain topic, or if you just enjoy these little like weekly catch-ups and just basically telling you what is in more weekly newsletter because I know that I like a wee podcast, um yeah, so lots of love. I will speak to you all very, very soon, and I hope you guys enjoy the rest of the holidays. Bye bye!
