Testimonials
- “My sessions with Mindy Lockard have been those of a life-changing experience. I have gone from being unsure in public settings to a more confident, professional woman. After our first meeting, Mindy prepared a personal plan for me that was exactly in tune with what we had discussed. I was so impressed by her ability to listen and understand my needs. The last few months have truly added value to my life. I would have missed one of the most positive experiences in my life had I not become a student of Mindy’s amazing knowledge of etiquette.”

- “I was pleasantly surprised when my wife and I attended one of Mindy Lockard’s dining classes. I have to admit that I was a bit apprehensive about taking a ‘manners’ class. Not only was the dining experience exceptional, but it turned out to be a great networking opportunity. We learned some very practical things, especially with regard to wine selection, that we have since used in dining with friends, family, and business contacts.”

- “Mindy Lockard is a wonderful role model of what it means to be respectful to others, a perfect match for someone who talks about etiquette. She presented a talk for 320 ladies at First Baptist Church about friendship. Her presentation will long be remembered because it was so full of information that was practical and spoken with wonderful touches of humor mixed with clips from movies and examples from her own life. Mindy was a joy to work with because of her response to meeting our requests for content, deadlines, and, most importantly, her sensitivity to the particular event plans and goals. She spoke with great ease and poise. Mindy truly walks what she talks. That makes working with her and knowing her a pleasure.”
