Charm and Grace Debutante Cotillion
Charm
Charm is defined as "the power or quality of delighting, attracting, or fascinating".
Our youth deserve to know that there is power in simply being kind, courteous, showing empathy and using conversation skills to gain a successful foothold in their endeavours. Charm is a powerful skill to learn.
We help polish the skills that build charm .
Grace
Grace commonly refers to "a smooth and pleasing way of moving, or a polite and thoughtful way of behaving."
Grace is a learned behavior, such as the training a ballerina receives.
As young ladies grow and mature, often they begin to neglect their posture, resulting in body language and nonverbal cues that don't always promote confidence.
We help polish the skills that build grace.

Our Curriculum
Social Skills classes can help accomplish many things. The social skills that our students learn during the Charm and Grace Debutante Cotillion happen just once a year but have positive effects that last a lifetime.
When our youth are more confident in themselves, they share that with others and together
they can change communities.
Young women will learn:
Communication skills
Personal etiquette
Social etiquette
Dining etiquette
From a skills standpoint, young ladies that attend social skills classes should feel more poised, confident and prepared for life.
Your investment of $300.00 ( payment plan is available), per debutante will cover the cost of your daughter and her escort’s training and presentation.
