- The Art of Charm, Deportment, Poise & Posture: We lose the art of being graceful in our modern day of convenience and time management In our journey of refinement, we should place value on learning how to be graceful. It is important to learn how to move with beauty, style and grace.:This is a 2 part approach:
1st Part: Charm: Fun and practical ways we can confidently relate to people in our larger social groups. Using manners, understanding etiquette and unlocking our natural charm may seem antiquated to young people today but in fact they are essential tools to navigate the new and larger world that opens up at the end of schooling. The Lindy Charm School for Girls has been empowering women for decades with skills that build confidence both inside and out. This workshop develops techniques that can be used for job interviews, work place relations and social interactions in order for young women to confidently meet their goals. If Charm is the art of having an attractive personality we can take practical steps to practice this art. Some people charm others the moment they enter a room, while others earn a reputation as a charmer over a period of time. Whist everyone is born with differing amounts of natural charm, much can be acquired and honed through practice. This is an art that will put girls of ages in good stead for socials interactions across many aspects of their life.
2nd Part: Deportment, Poise & Posture: Practical ways how we can effectively present ourselves and our ideas with confidence and grace. The Lindy Charm School for Girls are masters of teaching methods for grace under fire. Having a strong physical presence and an inner calm are great tools in life be it in our careers or in our personal relationships.

There is much we can learn from our fore-mothers who trail blazed for the freedoms and independence we enjoy today and with the beauty of hindsight, The Lindy Charm School preserves and imparts only the best of the past to enhance our present.Extended summary
Today we as women, particularly in the West, enjoy many rights that were hard won by our fore mothers. It is not enough to simply know the historical events that awarded us the right to vote but to also understand the female species through evolution. What is it to be a woman? What are our biological strengths and our sociological weaknesses and how will you as young women continue to develop the empowerment of your sex both personally and for the good of all mankind.
This workshop will give a concise snap shot of women starting from when the first humans appeared in Africa 200 thousand years ago to the Kardashian selfies of the present. We will work together to understand how we as individuals fit into this picture and how we might develop our sense of self without the need for a selfie stick.
The workshop will cover:
The evolution of the human species
The major sociological events that influenced women
The Suffragettes
Finding clarity in the confusing online world
Fostering unique empowerment
Sharing responsibility for the women of the future
Enjoying a sense of frivolity
The workshop, although informative, will endeavour to be fun with activities that are joyously creative.

“I wouldn’t be satisfied with a life lived solely on the barricades. I reserve my right to be frivolous” Betty Friedan the mother of modern American Feminism
From the Suffragettes to now the way is paved with boots and stilettos that allows us to be as powerful as we are feminine. We don’t need to limit ourselves to being one or the other, we can have it all.
When young ladies leave school and step into their future careers, connections and social groups we will need to think about ways to ensure our outer self reflects our inner confidence and beauty. We need to put our best foot forwards in order to reach our goals.
** We have two workshops designed to nurture the confidence and burgeoning power of young ladies:
