San Antonio Instructor, Larry Stratton wins the PBSA National Instructor of the Year Award!

We just returned from the PBSA Leadership Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Rachel accepts the PBSA Instructor of the Year Award on behalf of Larry Stratton!This year we brought home the one and only PBSA National Instructor of the Year award! Our Director/Instructor, Larry Stratton was chosen as the 2008 National Instructor of the Year by Roger Oldham, President of Professional Bartending Schools of America.

Larry stayed home in San Antonio to teach and manage the school, while Rachel Burdett, Co-Director of the school attended the meeting and accepted the prestigous award from PBSA on Larry's behalf.

Larry has taught at the San Antonio school since it's opening in 1997. Larry has a reputation for his high standards of customer service and his attention to detail.

Larry believes that he can teach any student to bartend so long as they will listen to him and follow his advice. Larry takes the extra time to work with each and every student to ensure they have the skills and confidence to successfully tend bar in San Antonio.
