When Is the Right Time? (Spoiler: It’s Probably Now.)

Have you ever said this to yourself? “I’d love to do something like that… but it’s just not the right time.”

You’re not alone. In fact, it’s something I’ve heard from a few people just this week.

Life is busy. There are always bills to pay, schedules to juggle, and reasons to wait. But if I’ve learned anything over the last couple of years, it’s this….There is no perfect time.

💬 A Personal Story…

Some of you may already know that I’ve spent the last 19 months going through treatment for breast cancer. Aggressive Chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy — it’s been one of the toughest chapters of my life.

But do you know what it’s also done? It’s given me perspective. It’s made me realise that life is short, and precious, and we don’t get unlimited chances to chase our dreams.

So when people say, “I’m just waiting for the right time,” I truly understand that mindset… But I also gently want to challenge it.

Because the right time might never arrive. You just have to take a deep breath, trust yourself, and leap. That’s how the magic happens.

So What Is the Rascals Franchise?

Rascals is a high-energy, confidence-boosting performing arts class for children aged 3–12, combining street dance, drama, and pop singing. Our franchisees deliver fun-packed after-school classes that build children’s confidence, creativity, and character, all while running a business they love.

But here’s what makes us different:

✅ No franchise fee.

We don’t earn until you do. That means we’re 100% invested in your success from day one.

✅ Low setup costs.

All you need is a small upfront investment to cover:

• Enhanced DBS (~£60)

• Paediatric first aid training (~£100)

• Bluetooth speaker for class (~£120)

• Basic stationery & internet access device

• £500 launch marketing budget

The best part? You’ll earn this back in your first term.

You can even apply for a Government Start-Up Loan to cover initial costs — making it even more accessible to start something of your own.

What’s Included in Your Franchise Package?

When you join Rascals, we don’t just hand you a logo and wish you luck. We walk alongside you, every step of the way:

• 14-module online training platform — bite-sized lessons covering everything from business setup to lesson planning

• Weekly 1:1 Zoom coaching calls during your launch journey

• Ongoing WhatsApp support and mentorship

• Launch marketing strategy mapped out over 6 weeks

• Proven class structure & lesson plans to deliver exciting, engaging, and high-quality sessions

• Customer communication templates, social media guidance, admin systems, and more

In short: you are never doing this alone.

But What If I’m Not Ready?

Honestly? No one ever feels completely ready. But the most exciting things in life often begin with a single, brave decision to just start.

And remember — you don’t need to open a 7-day-a-week performing arts school to change your life. Some of our franchisees teach one evening per week and earn a real income doing what they love.

Whether you're a former dancer, performer, teacher, or someone who just wants more joy, purpose, and flexibility — Rascals could be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

One Space Left for September
