The Model Academy, takes pride in training South Africa’s models by identifying their talent and developing our models by improving their self-confidence, modelling skills and techniques in catwalk, photographic modelling, deportment and acting, whilst also equipping our students with important life skills including etiquette and improving self-presentation.
Our signature course is the 6 month model training program which grooms our models from start to finish. For shorter courses we recommend the Introduction to Modelling courses or specialised courses. After each course we put our students forward to SA’s top modelling and acting agencies by assisting with introductions and the application process. We also offer continued support and guidance with regards to all aspects of the industry.
A brilliant course for anyone looking to enter the industry, whether it be for commercial, photographic, or runway. Topics covered are extremely relevant, and advice given with the chance to ask questions is great to increase understanding of the environment. Also fantastic to learn about how to carry yourself and what to expect in the industry. Would recommend to anyone looking to enter, or just wanting a better understanding of the industry.
I was trained like an actual model in this this course and learnt that if i don't get booked for a job or casting, i should not lose faith or excitement
The photoshoot and video audition was fun and i learnt a lot about what i am doing well and also where i need to improve. I have also learnt from observing the other attendees. The trainers are professional and knowledgeable. Thank you so much for an informative day, all of you were great!
I enjoyed absolutely everything, a well presented, well run and co-ordinated course. I have learnt that posture and facial expression is super important as a model. Really awesome course with good trainers
I attended their makeup course and can honestly say i would do it again! learnt so many things today and mastered some old skills. The variation between examples and you practicing yourself helps so much for it to sink in. No question went unanswered. Superb afternoon!
The experience is priceless, I have gained so much more confidence and I deliver character performances with more precision. Versatility is key as an actor and model however with training and knowledge I find myself a step ahead, Introduction to Acting Course helped me a lot in laying that foundation. Yes challenges are part of life, Today after receiving my certificate I learned to appreciate the encouragement and support from everyone at the model academy. I hope this message will serve as an encouragement.
I absolutely loved this course!…and it really improved my self confidence…I am highly grateful for this amazing opportunity.
It helped a lot to boost my confidence. I now know how to dress for my body shape and my skin tone.
I learnt a lot. I found out a lot about myself…After this I am 100% sure that this is the industry I want to be in
