SF Mixology

SF Mixology founder Shawn Refoua blended his ten-year experience as a bartender into social, educational events that bring bartending methodology and cocktail mixology into the 21st century. With an eye toward libation history, the school's interactive classes range from basic and advanced mixology courses to in-depth lessons on specific liquors and the evolution of the cocktail through the past two centuries and the decade when swizzle sticks were outlawed. Each class complements the goals of cocktail party hosts, as well as aspiring or continually learning bartenders, who can learn and practice essential behind-the-bar techniques while brushing up on flavor theory and emerging recipe methodologies. The laid-back classes include plenty of sample sips and enthusiastic toasts to newfound friends.

The Groupon Guide to: Dancing with a Dog

If you're the owner of a proud dog, don't let it go to waste—teach it how to dance with you. Here are some tips to transform your dog into a regular Dog Astaire:

  • Dogs don't have shoulders, so support your body weight on the next closest thing—their ears.
  • To trick a dog into learning faster, promise it a reward, like a strip of dried meat or unlimited access to your nicest toilet.
  • Dogs' ears are incredibly sensitive, so playing loud music will only make them believe all the walls around them are being crushed with a big metal hammer. Keep the music turned down and cover your dog's ears with the soundproofing membrane used in professional recording studios.
  • Keep your dog's nails trimmed. The prettier your dog feels, the prettier it will dance probably.
  • If your dog isn't having a good time, don't force it. The last thing you want is for it to decide to cut off communication with you when it's old enough to move out and live on its own.

Did Fred Astaire name his dog "Dog Astaire"?
