I teach you the mechanics of every flip and pour—like the two-tin sequence or the shadow pass—by breaking them down into small, repeatable motions. It is not about natural talent; it is about building muscle memory through consistent practice. ### Building the Skills At FMBA, we don't believe in theory-heavy lectures. Whether you are aiming for a career in a five-star hotel or just want to impress friends at your next party, the process is the same. We use dedicated practice bottles and spongy floors so you can push your limits without worrying about the drops. ### What You Master Here * **Work Flair**: These are the moves you will actually use behind a busy bar. We focus on efficient, stylish pouring that doesn't slow down your service. * **Exhibition & Fire Flair**: For those ready to step up, we cover juggling, complex multi-object manipulation, and safety protocols for fire acts. This is the performance side of the craft. * **Technical Mixology**: A drink should taste as good as it looks. You will learn to balance flavors, execute clean layers, and understand the chemistry behind classic and signature cocktails. ### Real-World Readiness Training here is structured to mirror real bar environments. My goal is to get you comfortable behind the stick, whether that means managing inventory, handling high-pressure service, or prepping a show-stopping routine for a competition. If you are willing to put in the hours, I will teach you the trade. ## About Sonal Hanwate I’m Sonal. Bartending is my jam, whether I’m flipping bottles at a wedding or teaching the basics at FMBA.
