What you'll learn
You'll train key flair moves by learning three routines around a Negroni, Espresso Martini, and Mojito. We'll present to you a selection of smooth moves and sleek sequences to execute whilst making those cocktails. We'll take a look at some Orange Level WFA moves but our instructors are flexible and adapt their teaching to the current skills of each student - whether beginner or advanced. At the end of the week, you'll get the chance to practise under pressure and present your sequences to your peers.
Course content overview
This is an introduction to flair bartending and its brief history, we say ‘brief’ as flair has only been a part of popular bar culture since around the 1980s. We’ll touch on the World Flair Association (WFA), Grading system, and its significance in the bartending world.
We’re talking all things flair. Working, exhibition, and craft. Whether you want smooth professional moves to use behind the bar or extravagant sequences to stun guests or competition judges, we’ll cover it all. You’ll leave a master of flair skills with new sequences of mesmerising moves.
Here, time is of the essence. You’ll learn the skills to mix up specific cocktails under a time limit without messing up any measurements. Keeping a cool head and steady hand is what’ll make you stand out from other bartenders.
Dramatic pours are entertaining and eye-catching but measurements still need to remain spot on! Practise timing chase and flair pours perfectly.
See how other pros adapt their flair sequences to express their personalities whilst drinking in funky bars.
This is the last stage of the course where you can put everything you’ve learned into practice. It’s nothing to stress about - we just want to give you space to show off your newfound moves and feel what it’s like to have a live audience. It’s your time to shine and put your own spin on combining flair bartending skills and cocktail mixing.
