The modeling program at Maya’s Models offers the student the
opportunity to work directly with Maya herself.
Modeling classes include time-honored techniques for learning
the runway as well as Maya’s own approach to professional
turns, catwalk on runway, photo-posing, and much more.
All students have the opportunity to participate in live fashion
shows and photo shoots.
This gives the student practical experience outside of the
classroom and a chance to use their skills.
