THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK in Manhattan and Southampton offers a comprehensive program of etiquette workshops, seminars and private instruction for children, adults, private organizations and corporations.

THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK was founded by Patricia Napier-Fitzpatrick to help foster the ideals of proper etiquette and good manners. Good manners are important because they are the essence of graciousness.

We are all judged by the way we conduct ourselves, whether we are six or sixty. Good manners are the same for everyone: they are based upon using the long-standing, socially accepted rules of etiquette with kindness and respect for others.

The rules of etiquette that THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK teaches children are the same as those taught to adults. The same rules apply, but the approach to the material is on age-appropriate levels.

In today's fast-paced, sophisticated global environment, people who are able to handle social situations with poise have a built-in advantage as they achieve their life goals. Whether you want to learn how to make a good first impression, refine your dining skills, or improve your communication skills, we will give you the social skills and confidence you need to be your social best and achieve your goals.
