Manners & Etiquette Courses

More Than Good Manners offers a range of course on all aspects of manners and etiquette covering various topics. We believe in approaching this fascinating area in a fun , enjoyable and interactive way always focussing on the needs of participants, irrespective if they are individuals, small groups or corporate clients. We also welcome all age groups and nationalities.

Manners are not anything to do with whether you are rich, have had a good education or grew up in certain social circles,. Today people are much more likely to define themselves by their work, their interests as well as their background or social status.

Learning the basis of good manners can make you feel far more confident in different social circumstances.

It is also important to put others at their ease and to show natural human concern which can be called ‘natural politeness’. A good starting point is to learn the ‘rules of formal’ etiquette so that when you are in an unusual or formal situation it is very useful to know the manners required
A basic guideline is to follow the ;less is more principle’ meaning that stiff and rigid manners are of less use in social and business situations whiles more charm, poise, and natural consideration for other will be of far greater value.

Ideal for all sorts of circumstances, for example meeting and entertaining guests, moving or applying for a job, or college place or simply to boost self awareness and confidence!

We offer one day courses or longer, as clients require, either on a one to one basis or for small groups (ideally up to ten people). We use as our base the Sloane Club in Central London as our main venue although we can run courses at other locations depending on demand.

The main areas we cover (but we can tailor as necessary according to interest or priority) are:

Meeting and greeting in different social and business situations, how to address people, how to make people feel welcome and also how to say farewell

Dressing for success – how first impressions count and how your personal interaction and appearance, body language, and poise can make you and your guests feel confident and at ease

The manners and etiquette of dining – tips on table setting, seating plans and how to eat difficult or tricky foods

Key points for manners and etiquette when hosting an event – how to make your guests feel at ease and welcome.
