Barbara Hinkel's

Etiquette and Cotillion Program

the Doors of Life's Opportunities!

That will always be the case, but in this fast paced society of the New Millennium they are even more important. In business, good manners and competent

social skills are becoming the differentiating factors in providing quality customer service and selecting front runners for leadership roles. In a lifetime of

work, getting started just slightly ahead can mean hundreds of thousands of dollars. More importantly, living graciously benefits everyone. Building good

relationships is essential to happiness in young people, and leads to more lasting long-term partnerships.

The goal of this program is to empower people with correct social skills so that they can handle any social or business situation comfortably and with grace.

When people of all ages understand that etiquette stems from consideration and sensitivity, integrity, loyalty, trustworthiness, compromise and respect; then

they have learned the essence of a true lady and gentleman.

DANCE PROGRAM !!!!

What Barbara teaches in her program has been reviewed and sanctioned by the National Dance Council of America (NDCA), the internationally affiliated body that runs and judges ballroom dance competitions throughout America. What the young people in Barbara's program are getting are the basic steps in Level I, the next level of combination steps in Level II, and routines in Level III and the High School classes that form the underlying moves in competetive ballroom dancing. With many high schools and colleges formimg Swing and Ballroom dance clubs, these students are well positioned for social success upon leaving home. And, if they wish to go that far, this can lead to competing in dance contests or just a lot of fun all around the world.
