Cotillion & etiquette classes in Austin

Every cotillion and etiquette class we found in the Austin area, with the dates parents miss most: when registration opens and closes, and when refunds end.

What is cotillion? A series of classes in manners, introductions, table etiquette and social (ballroom) dance, usually ending in a dinner dance or ball. Etiquette schools skip the dancing.
Typical grades Mostly 4th–8th grade. National League of Junior Cotillions (NLJC) chapters take 6th–8th; Southern Etiquette Consultants also teaches K–6th and teens.
When to sign up NLJC seasons run about Sept–Jan and post dates about 6 months ahead. Shorter winter and spring sessions are open now, and full refunds often end weeks before the first class.
