The Grace
Modeling, Acting, and Etiquette
The Grace brings together three complementary disciplines (modeling, acting, and etiquette) into one program designed to develop confidence, poise, presence, and self-respect. Students learn to carry themselves with grace, express themselves clearly, and step into any room with assurance.
Modeling
Our modeling training and development program is for young women who aspire to a career in the industry. Acceptance includes an interview, and health and proper nutrition are always the first priority. Each class includes a 20-minute workout, health and nutrition education, runway and posing technique, photoshoot preparation, voice and movement, and discussions on professionalism, assertion, and etiquette. Photoshoots take place monthly outside of class.
The Young Ladies of Grace maintains scouting relationships with top agencies in NYC, Toronto, Miami, and LA, and graduates may be presented to these agencies. Students also explore beauty (enhancing your best features, building confidence and presence), styling (hair, skin, wardrobe, hygiene), and audition technique (first impressions, speaking professionally, handling rejection).
Acting
Acting is an incredible outlet for self-expression. Classes begin with vocal warm-ups focused on projection, precision, emphasis, and range, and cover comedic improvisation, scene study, audition technique, cold reading, movement and stage combat, commercials, and monologues for theater and TV. Over the year, students build a professional audition reel, star in our annual commercial, and perform in our Spring play in May.
- Ages 3 to 5: 45 minutes

Grace, Poise, and Etiquette
An educational and fun class (ages 3 to 18) that develops social and interpersonal skills for school, home, and public life. Students work on posture, eye contact, and a confident handshake, conversation skills, table and restaurant manners, gratitude and thank-you notes, handling difficult situations with poise, public speaking, and standing up for what we believe in.
