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, schools, and corporations.

THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK in Manhattan and Southampton was founded by Patricia Napier-Fitzpatrick to help foster the ideals of proper etiquette and good manners.The rules of etiquette taught by THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK are based on long-standing, socially-accepted rules of conduct, My goal is to help my clients make these ancient rules relevent for contemporary living. Behavior can be learned; character is a different matter. To quote Emily Post: "Good manners reflect something inside - an innate sense of consideration for others and respect for self." Ultimately, it's about seeking a higher standard of living.

When one comes to understand that when we learn to respect others, that respect is returned to us in kind. This fundamental "consideration" functions as its own reward, but it also opens one up to many more possibilities which lead to success. THE ETIQUETTE SCHOOL OF NEW YORK is dedicated to empowering its students!

In today's global business environment, people who are able to handle social situations with poise and grace have a built-in advantage. Whether you want to learn how to make a good first impression, refine your dining skills, improve your conversation and communication skills, or become more effective in your social life, we will provide the tools you need to successfully achieve your goals.
