Can you get an education in dating?

Innovative offline dating events company My Friend Charlie has recently launched a bespoke programme of talks, workshops, and events hosted by dating industry experts at exclusive women-only members club, The Allbright, to empower singles to elevate their dating game.

Every month will have a different speaker with unique insights to help guests navigate the modern dating scene. Speakers have been carefully selected for their experience in the industry and wealth of knowledge in their chosen field. Each event will focus on a different area of their expertise, covering typical dating dilemmas such as how to improve your confidence, to dealing with heartbreak, and everything in between.

Founder and CEO Charlotte “Charlie” Spokes explains: “We wanted to create The Modern Dating Academy to be able to give people some support when it comes to dating, both online & offline. It’s a world that’s changing very quickly and it can be incredibly daunting for people. By creating an opportunity for singles to come and hear dating experts speak and ask them for advice, we’re empowering singles to elevate their dating game and take control of their relationship status.”

The first event in the series will feature Naomi Honey, life coach and parkour enthusiast, who will be speaking about how singles can balance their dating lives.

“The dating world has changed profoundly in the past few years, and for all its incredible potential, it can be an exhausting and difficult place to be,” Naomi explains, “The Modern Dating Academy is helping to address that, with a fantastic range of support and insight to help singles navigate the new world with confidence. I'm so happy to be part of that, helping people to feel positive and empowered in themselves and their journey.”

The Modern Dating Academy begins on Wednesday 14th August at The Allbright, 11 Rathbone Place. Tickets available at www.myfriendcharlie.co.uk
