With this in mind, we are excited to announce a season of fresh beginnings here at Beverly Hills Manners. We have a new collaboration with celeb-owned spot,
Au Fudge, and will now be hosting all of our children and teen group and private lessons at their ideal location on Melrose. Our Well-Mannered adult series at Soho House has received rave reviews and will continue with new dates for the remainder of the year. Our new corporate etiquette programs are taking off with a recent dining program presented to fashion house Burberry and an upcoming Student Ambassador program scheduled for Pomona College. And, new dates are confirmed for our popular "Let's Dance"
Cotillion, so sign up now while there's still space available. Finally, contact us to create a customized program for you, your business or brand or join one of the group classes featured on our website. We are here to support you with the secret sauce for success!
