Formal Cotillion 2025
2025-01-12 19:00 - 20:30 (America/Chicago) | Junior League of Tulsa, 3633 South Yale Avenue, Tulsa, OK, 74135
Cotillion is a class for boys and girls in the 7th through 12th grades, offering instruction in etiquette, table manners, and basic ballroom dancing. Tulsa Cotillion’s program consists of five 90-minute class sessions, plus a final dinner, dance, and party (lasting about 4 hours).

Each class session begins with a 15-minute etiquette lesson, followed by an hour of dancing, allowing our students to incorporate the manners they have been taught in an informal, but structured, social situation. We end each class session with a 15-minute refreshment break, during which the gentlemen serve the ladies, and both gentlemen and ladies can practice table manners and their conversational skills.

The final dinner will include dancing and a formal 5-course, sit-down dinner, including soup, salad, sorbet, entrée and dessert. Proper dining etiquette is strongly reinforced, along with all of the social skills taught throughout the class.
