The Modern Manners Dinner Club is a three-session experience designed to give students the confidence and social skills to navigate both everyday interactions and more formal occasions with ease.

This three-session experience combines engaging etiquette instruction with hands-on dining practice, giving students the confidence to navigate both everyday social situations and more formal occasions with ease.

Throughout the course, students will practice making a polished first impression, including handshakes, introductions and conversation skills. We’ll explore the art of being a gracious host and guest, appropriate behavior in public and private spaces, and how to write a thoughtful and memorable thank-you note.

Each class concludes with a multi-course dinner, allowing students to put their new skills into practice. They’ll learn to recognize place settings, confidently use utensils, practice good table manners, and approach unfamiliar or challenging foods with grace. Our final class will culminate in a festive, elevated holiday dining experience.

Classes will meet 5pm -7pm in the Traditions Dining Room at Chenal Country Club

Saturdays October 17, November 21 , and Friday, December 4, 2026
