Miss Teen Miami Pageant 2010

I had the honor of judging the Miss Teen Miami Pageant on February 27th and 28th. The girls were amazing and I throughly enjoyed the time spent with the 15 to 19 year old contestants. The pageant was well organized by a great team of professionals. I look forward to the possibility of judging next year's competition!

Testimonial from successful Miami Business Owner

"Gracious excellence." There is no better way to describe the time that I spent with Ms. Diana. Her presence alone is all you need to remind you of the perfect example of a lady. Marilyn Monroe said it best when she said, "I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it." There is so much power in the grace of a woman that it is a diservice to not use it. For years I have worked in corporate-male-dominated settings where I thought I had to be more like one of the boys, but I am finding that with every kind word, pleasant smile and gentle stride a world of opportunity reveals itself to me. Thank you so much Lady Diana (there must be something in the name!), for setting the example and the standard. I learned so many things that I have already incorporated into my everyday. I feel better prepared to work with individuals, groups and even crowds, and it's because of your guidance.

Being in the cosmetics industry one's image is key, but the ability to move to the next level will happen when the fundamentals of personality and grace are in place. I am already seeing the benefits of your class and have the egde that will take my business to new heights. It was a great class!

Etiquette is for Everyone!

I had the pleasure of presenting a private class to a very active business woman in Miami. Social, Business and Dining Etiquette were taught. We enjoyed a 7 course meal at a fabulous restaurant. She plans to take her knowledge to her staff.

Etiquette crosses all ethnic and social groups. Learn how to stand out in a crowd and be that person with a little something extra to secure that job position you wish.

Tip-"Always dress for the job to want-not the one you have." Contact me to sign up for a private class and children's and teen classes are also available.

Letter from Student

The Petite Etiquette Class ended today with a fabulous brunch.  All students were able to dine in the restaurant with proper manners, grace and confidence.  I was proud of all students and each became very special to me.

I received a most gracious letter from one student who gave permission to post.

Dear Ms. Diana,

I thank you and also my parents for teaching me manners and that is the best gift I have ever had.  I had so much fun when we went down stairs and looked at the clothes and the cupcakes were great-they tasted really good but I had a better time when we were talking about manners.

It was awesome to spend time with you Ms. Diana and I learned what side to put the spoon, knife and fork and I also learned how to sit like a lady.

Thank you and I hope that God blesses you and that the Angels be at your side forever.

Love,
 Tatiana Cardona (9 years old)

State Farm Vivianne Alvarez

I just had the honor of providing a fun filled evening of Business, Social and Dining Etiquette for the staff of a Miami insurance company.  The lessons included a 7 course meal and dining tutorial.  Please note the gracious note received from the owner of the company, Ms. Vivianne Alvarez.

Good Morning Diana,

I just wanted to thank you for a wonderful class.  My team really, truly enjoyed you and your lessons on Business, Social and Dining Etiquette.  I am sure this will benefit my office production as well as their own personal self esteem.   They could not stop talking about you the next day and I have noticed an increase in politeness not only amongst themselves but with clients which is what I wanted and now thank you!
