Bartending Lessons

Real technique. Real flow. Real confidence. Lessons built from experience on both sides of the bar — so you’re not learning “bar school” fluff.

Chicagoland + Northern Illinois.

Lesson Formats

Choose the format that matches your goal — hosting better, building real skills, or training a team. Each lesson is hands-on, coached, and built for consistency.

Real Bar Basics

Private 1-on-1 fundamentals that build real confidence — not fake “bar school” confidence. Tools, setup, clean technique, and core builds you can repeat every time.

Fake It Less

Couples lessons built for teamwork and hosting. Shared bar setup, roles, balance, and party-ready speed without turning it into homework.

Shake First, Panic Later

Small group lessons (2–3) with hands-on reps and real-time correction. Speed drills that don’t ruin quality + decision-making when things go sideways.

The Long Pour

Groups (4–6). Controlled, coached, and structured so everyone gets reps. Great for celebrations, friends, and team-building without chaos.

Who Lessons Are For

These lessons are for people who want skills that actually translate — behind a bar, at home, or at an event.

  • New bartenders: Learn core builds, pacing, and consistency without panic.
  • Home hosts: Set up your bar like a pro and stop guessing mid-party.
  • Couples: Learn how to host together without stepping on each other.
  • Friend groups: Fun session with structure — everyone learns, nobody gets lost.
  • Bars & teams: Technique + service habits that translate on shift.
