One of the most helpful and exciting things about being in the [Jaunty] course was having the structure and assignments to interact with strangers. I didn’t realize how much I was missing out on in terms of the connection and joy that you can get from just saying hi to someone you’re sitting next to on the subway.

After overcoming some initial cultural reluctance, I decided to sign up. And can I tell you something? It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I started to gain back confidence and assertiveness with the first crazy homework...after the exercise came the theory in class around frames (my frame/reality versus other’s people’s frame). It all made so much sense!

I've always been shy when it comes to approaching someone. Keeping the conversation flowing has also been an issue....and then the awkward silences. Eric Waisman shared skills and knowledge to us Yelpers yesterday. Founder of Jaunty, he helps build up social skills.

It's a really great experience if you have any social anxiety or if you want to learn to talk with people more. Everyone can learn from it.

The material is very well taught and the instructors are amazing. I highly recommend jaunty for gaining advanced social skills and intelligence of any context be it professional, romantic, or just straight up social. I'm a Stanford student and found it as rigorous, well taught, and beneficial as my social psychology and improv acting classes I've attended at Stanford prior.

I think almost anyone would benefit from Jaunty. Particularly, I look at the people I work with, the software engineers. I think everyone should go to Burning Man once, and take Jaunty classes.
