Welcome to Cotillion

The National League of Junior Cotillions is a multi-year etiquette program that offers fun, age-appropriate lessons in social graces that will last a lifetime. The program gives young people the opportunity to receive instruction and practice in social courtesies and social dance. Cotillion programs place an emphasis on etiquette, manners, and character education as well as dancing while classes meet just once a month. The social and character education components of the program include proper telephone courtesy, acknowledgment of gifts, introductions, participating in group settings, polite conversation, paying and receiving compliments, sports etiquette, first impressions, dress codes for social occasions, manners in the home as well as public places, table manners, and many other areas of social behavior. Other topics covered are the importance of having honor, dignity, respect, a caring attitude, accountability, and citizenship. After a series of 5 classes, the highlight of the Junior Cotillion Season is the Grand Spring Ball in March.
