Cody and Deborah Fisher, a married couple of former educators, started a small local company, Austin Cotillion, around 2016. \u201cAs the pandemic persisted, we saw more and more kids struggling with loneliness, depression and social anxiety,\u201d Ms. Fisher said. The couple wanted to give kids in their community the chance to learn social skills and build confidence.<\/p>\n
The Fishers\u2019 classes aren\u2019t traditional. They incorporate magic or games to keep drifting minds engaged. They also do not enforce strict gender codes. \u201cOur cotillion is for everybody,\u201d Mr. Fisher said. \u201cWe don\u2019t check birth certificates.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
