The Cotillion Experience

What is Cotillion?

Cotillion is a time-honored tradition that prepares young people with the social skills, etiquette, and confidence they need to navigate life with grace. Through interactive lessons in dining etiquette, conversation, and ballroom dance, students grow into poised, respectful young adults.

Etiquette & Manners

Dining etiquette, proper introductions, and the social graces that open doors throughout life.

Ballroom Dance

Foxtrot, waltz, swing, and more. Students gain confidence through the joy of partner dancing.

Character Development

Respect, kindness, and integrity—the foundations of character that shape tomorrow's leaders.
