It’s nice being nice. The only issue is that what people consider nice will vary depending on where, when, and who you are. A military dress uniform is always a good choice if you are an officer and never a good choice if you are a civilian. This is why you should join an etiquette class: to know all of the little intricacies modern communication and personal presentation entail.

During the coursework, the focus of the lessons will be on what can be described as internal and external sides of etiquette. The internal is how keeping good posture and acting properly makes you feel, bringing you confidence and directness when you talk and act.

On the external side, the lessons will include how proper etiquette influences others. This will include classy and academic situations, such as official dinners, but also very common and private events, such as a job interview.

Improved Personal Grooming

People say, “Don’t judge a book by its covers,” forgetting that that’s what covers are for. The same works for people, as few will bother to get to know someone if they look unpleasant from afar. Our job is to help you make those impressions as favorable as possible by helping you improve your style.

Body language, combined with vestments appropriate for the occasion, will always leave a good impression on your business partners, colleagues, superiors, or prospective love interests.

Respect for Others

Depending on the culture and the setting, there are many ways how one can show respect. And, showing respect is the only proper way to act if you want someone to respect you. There is no way to go around this, and we all know how seeing someone act arrogant makes us feel.

If you are someone who has internalized etiquette, you will be able to communicate without fear of disrespecting others or making yourself less respectful. Even if there is a conflict, there is a calm and respectful way to resolve it.

Improved Social Skills

In the modern world, we have a lot of interactions without actually meeting the person in question, which is why our basic social skills suffer. By learning etiquette, you will have a variety of rehearsed behaviors that will allow you a bit of time to compose yourself before you can act as you wish. 

This will allow you to resolve conflicts and maintain relationships much more easily and without fear of saying something wrong.

Enhanced Self-Confidence

We doubt ourselves when we are unsure if our behavior is coming across the way we want it. Etiquette classes help here because we can draw on the experience of others and check how we come off in a low-stakes environment.

With formal etiquette, you will be able to convey your ideas and thoughts without ever risking sounding arrogant or, God forbid, vapid. Rather, you could be direct and open regardless of the people you are with and your goals, as you will be prepared for all of those situations.

Leadership Development

Leadership can manifest itself in a variety of different ways, and as vulgarity has entered the mainstream, we are frequently mistaking it for being loud, demanding, or tyrannical. Rather, good leadership is being of a calm mind and using wisdom and experience to solve a problem for a group or to support those who you deem to be able to solve it instead.

Becoming a figure that will do the best thing for the group regardless of their ego or the egos of others will always make you the leader of that group. By being collected while at the same time having the experience and expertise necessary for the task, you can be self-assured. Remember, the first person you need to lead is yourself.

Emotional Resilience

Due to the aforementioned anxiety and self-doubt, we frequently fall into reacting to rational situations emotionally. We forget that emotions can only be a valid response to the emotions of others. Same as for respect, if you aren’t receiving, you shouldn’t be giving any.

Because you will be prepared for a variety of scenarios through our etiquette classes, you will rarely fall into the temptation to demean yourself by acting out of turn. Rather, you can use your rehearsed time to compose yourself and make a measured response to anything, including an insult.

For insults in particular, there is no reason to demean yourself by responding without etiquette to people who, through insulting you, have chosen themselves to be beneath you. Respect their choice.

Professional Readiness

The business world has a lot of rules, many of which are unspoken. The classes are used so that you can navigate those rules. And when you are acting the way others expect, you will have an easier time negotiating with them.

The classes will include business meetings, networking, and written and digital communication, which are becoming increasingly important. You will receive vital tips and tricks on how to improve your standing any time there is a social situation without ever giving offense to others.

There are no particular prerequisites for our beginner classes. All individuals from all walks of life are welcome to attend as the etiquette thought will be beneficial for every single person.

Certainly, we encourage all age groups to join our classes and believe that having them as a family can even improve results and strengthen family bonds.

There are different age groups. The youngest students range from age 5 to 12, and there is also a class for teenagers between ages 13 and 17. All others would go to the adult etiquette classes.

While the format may differ slightly, we offer both online classes as well as in-person classes. Due to the ability to showcase some of the scenarios more vividly, we do advise our in-person classes, but we understand that due to scheduling, that is not always possible.

Yes, you would. Each participant will receive a certificate of achievement after successfully finishing the program.

We do advise you to carry a notebook and a pen to take notes. Other instruments for the classes will be provided upon arrival.
