Greater Johnston Chapter
Classes
For the 2026-2027 season, the Greater Johnston Chapter will offer Junior Cotillion classes at The Neuse Country Club in Clayton.
Junior Cotillion is a program designed for children in grades 5-8. Year One (new students) is a mix of etiquette and dance instruction including the cha cha, fox trot, beach shag, and line dances. The social and character education components of the program include introductions and proper rising, acknowledgement of gifts, correspondence and the RSVP, participating in group settings, polite conversation, paying and receiving compliments, manners in the home, rules of proper telephone courtesy, basic table manners and many other areas of social behavior. The highlight of the season is the final Grand Ball.
Pre-Cotillion is a 3-day program designed for students in 1st-4th grades. We offer age appropriate instruction including introductions, basic table manners, writing correspondence, and school manners.
