A luxury Femininity consultancy for women who refuse to settle. Where Power meets Poise.
Power with Poise was founded on the knowledge and undeniable evidence that true femininity is neither superficial nor pretentious, however it is a refined expression of strength, wisdom, discipline and grace. In a world that often encourages women to become masculine in pursuit of financial gain and significance, this school exists to restore the understanding that femininity and power are not opposites, but partners. I believe a woman’s elegance, presence and self-respect can become some of her greatest assets, allowing her to influence rooms, relationships and opportunities without abandoning authenticity. Femininity, when cultivated with intention, becomes a force that commands respect while preserving grace.
My philosophy teaches that confidence begins within, but must also be reflected outwardly through presentation, communication and conduct. How a woman sees herself shapes how she carries herself and how she carries herself shapes how the world responds.
I believe that from the kitchen, through the brunch and to the boardroom, femininity is deeply connected to self-respect. Self-respect requires boundaries, discernment and personal excellence.
A powerful woman is not defined solely by appearance, but by her ability to move through life with wisdom, composure and clarity. Power with Poise teaches women to reclaim ownership of their identity, refine their personal standards and present themselves in a way that aligns with the life they desire.
Whether in marriage, motherhood, friendship, business or personal reinvention, I believe every woman deserves the tools to become polished, purposeful and deeply secure in who she is.
Above all, Power with Poise exists to create lasting transformation, not temporary performance. My mission is to cultivate women whose presence speaks before they do...women who are elegant yet strong, soft yet discerning and confident yet gracious.
My name is Dené Cohen, founder of Power with Poise, a modern finishing school dedicated to helping women cultivate confidence, presence, elegance and self-respect in every area of life. After years of working closely with people from diverse settings and stages of life including time spent living in the Middle East,
"I built Power with Poise because I needed it and it didn't exist. A space where women could learn to own their presence — not despite their femininity, but because of it."
I developed a deep appreciation for the timeless qualities that contribute to a woman's personal presence i.e. grace, refinement, confidence, self-awareness and strong character.
Through my own journey, I came to understand that true femininity is not about perfection or fitting into a mold, it is about becoming the most confident, polished and authentic version of yourself regardless of any limitations around you.
True elegance is refusal - it means knowing what to keep and what to let go. I teach presence, not performance.
I do not manufacture confidence. I excavate it - stripping away the doubt and fear to reveal what was always there.
Every programme I create is designed to leave you more resourceful, more aligned, and more powerful than before.
Every client journey is treated with absolute confidentiality, respect, and the dignity of a truly personalised experience.
