Why Choose Ms Bella St John?

Ms Bella St John brings a wealth of experience and a passion for excellence to her etiquette training programs. Known for her sophisticated approach and attention to detail, Bella has helped countless individuals and organizations achieve their highest potential through the power of proper etiquette.

She has coached politicians, executives, and even high-school students to be comfortable with the art of etiquette; and even accompanied international government trade delegations, coaching them on the finer points of etiquette and cultural sensitivities. Bella’s unique blend of traditional and modern practices ensures that you receive relevant, actionable advice tailored to today’s dynamic environments.

Bella also has etiquette in her blood.  She is directly related to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, HRH King Charles III of England, and can trace her direct ancestral lineage all the way back to Charlemagne (Charlemagne was King of the Franks from 768, King of the Lombards from 774, and Emperor of what is now known as the Carolingian Empire from 800).

Add to those the fact that Bella basically lives and breathes what she calls, ‘relaxed elegance’ – she writes with a gold fountain pen, seals her hand-written letters with her own personalized wax seal, and is experienced with the world of private flights, royal events, black tie evenings, and more… (including hosting several).

“My intention is to make sure everyone feels comfortable in any situation, from a beer garden to a royal garden party, and everything in between.”
