[vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]The dining table is filled with potential catastrophes- a glass of red wine spilling, the olive shooting across the table, sauce dropping on your tie or blouse or the fork flying off the table.

 

All the while you still have to be social, say the right thing, and solidify business contracts.  Through learning the correct dining skills, you are more at ease to focus on the people and the occasion rather than second-guessing yourself and working yourself up to a mild panic.

 

Whether you choose to do the Art of Dining, Business Entertaining, and Dining or the Family Dining tutorial, you will learn all the subtle nuances of the table.  You will learn why these specific instruments are in place and how to use them so that dining becomes an easy and enjoyable social event.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_tta_accordion][vc_tta_section title=”Dining Etiquette – Business Entertaining and Dining focuses on learning the following:” tab_id=”1657105422255-e0d733c6-38e6″][vc_column_text]
