We are so much more than a business that provides a one-off skipping day (sorry, we thought it was worth repeating). You probably won’t be surprised to hear that we talk to hundreds of schools every year (which is great, thanks for your continued support). Lots of these schools use our complete concept brilliantly, and […]
Get amazing discounts and make significant savings on our superb quality skipping ropes. Imagine being able to give children (and staff) one simple tool to stay warm, active and fit. All the time. We think staying active is crucial. We aren’t talking about being world beaters at football, hockey hero’s or cricket colossuses. Rather, we […]
When you hold a DTSM Skipping Day, the observant amongst you may see on our wonderful new banners have a Wheelchair user on them. Now, this is not us (we promise) paying lip service to inclusion. That’s actually our founder Dan’s sister; five time Paralympian Clare. Clare is on our banners to show that we […]
It’s World Teachers Day! At Dan the Skipping Man® we love teachers, and we think it is only right that they get their own unique day to celebrate everything they do. We are lucky enough to work with teachers every single day: to inspire them, to pass on our knowledge to them, and to help […]
Some things in life are bigger and more important than skipping (yes we did just say that). One of those things is charity and, specifically, supporting children’s charities.

At Dan the Skipping Man® we love to keep an eye out for activity based articles in the press. And 10 days ago in the Guardian, we noticed a piece by Andrew Gregory (Twitter: @andrewgregory) about just that. Sadly, it summed up that children’s activity levels have been declining in the wake of the Covid […]
We provide tailored DTSM skipping days for schools and other organisations. Because we understand that one size very rarely fits all, our service is deeply personalised. We work with you to create the very best experience for your children. Always ensuring we maximise both your budget and the fun. And always, taking the time to […]
