Noodle Performance Arts franchise

At Noodle Performance Arts we offer two excellent businesses for one franchise fee!

The first part of the business offers our very popular performing arts and ballet classes, taught by qualified teachers who are also professional performers (or have been professional performers). We pride ourselves on offering fun classes where children have the opportunity to flourish and to grow in confidence. Our children do not have to take exams or wear a uniform and we offer our classes at affordable prices - which makes them much more accessible to children and families.

We also include 'Noodle Parties' as part of our franchise package. This will utilise the skills of your employed teachers, as we offer a range of character parties, including princess & pirate parties, dance parties and mini-discos. Your initial fee will include a range of costumes, equipment and the plans for our whole range of parties.

If you become a Noodle franchisee, you will be given everything you need to launch in your area and start offering performing arts and dance classes as well as children’s party packages. You will receive full training as well as ongoing management and marketing support to help you fulfil your full potential.

We offer an initial one week residential training course, followed by a further week fo training, tailored to your needs. We then offer ongoing training in new processes, laws or developments within the industry, in order to keep you up to date, via our training portal, in person or via conference calls.

We are constantly available for support, both online and on the telephone.

We are passionate about ensuring that you have everything you need to run your business in place right from the start – including all the lesson plans and equipment you need.

If you want the freedom and flexibility of running your own business but without the risk of starting your own venture from scratch, we may have the perfect solution for you.

We are looking for hard-working and passionate individuals, who have the drive to succeed. Our franchise is especially suited to those with teaching or performance experience - but this is not essential. We will provide full training on how to recruit teachers and party hosts, if you do not wish to teach yourself. We also provide a full range of business support, so no previous experience of running a business is required.

Our focus at Noodle is on providing affordable performing arts training, making our classes much more accessible than traditional stage schools. This means that your customer base is much wider than that of your competitors and also means that you can run your business in any area, even if there are already established competitors in that area.

Our story began in September 2011 when Noodle’s founder and managing director Nikki Johnson realised lots of young people wanted the opportunity to dance, act and sing without having to take stressful exams or wear a strict uniform.

Nikki decided to start her own classes which offered a more relaxed and affordable alternative to traditional stage and dance schools and valued children of all abilities. Noodle Performance Arts started life as a small performing arts class for preschool children at Beighton Lifestyle Centre, Sheffield.

The informal approach and high quality teaching soon proved to be a success and in 2012 Noodle won the Netmums award for best preschool classes in Sheffield.

Now the business has expanded to cater for a wider age range and classes are taught in venues all over South Yorkshire & Cheshire, as well as expanding to other areas of the UK.
