Not only will you get to enjoy tasty drinks like martinis, pina coladas, and whiskey sours (there’s a lot of cocktail themes and liquors you can choose from), you and your team will learn how to make them, too! Expert mixologists will teach you how to mix, muddle, and shake your way towards the most delicious homemade cocktails you’ve ever tried and made.

To make your team’s bartending experience as authentic as possible, consider inviting everyone to dress up in their swankiest attire!

Painting and booze is a potent combination that will help your team relax, show off your creative sides, and just enjoy each other's company while you channel your inner artist.

Treat the office to a Christmas wreath making class

Discover your best selves during an online beauty workshop

The holiday season is a lot of fun, but who doesn't enjoy dealing with dry skin, cracked lips, and other issues that come with the cold weather. Instead of buying your co-workers a generic set of beauty products, why not learn how to achieve healthier skin together?

This online beauty workshop is an immersive course, and the instructor will teach you and your teammates how to blend make-up removers, cleansers, face masks, and other skin essentials. The DIY skincare kit included in this course includes additional ingredients, so you can continue making beauty products at home.
