One-Day Catwalk Training Course

The VAULT One-Day Catwalk Training Course is an immersive training experience for aspiring, developing and working models who want to strengthen their runway technique, industry awareness and professional confidence.

Designed and delivered by active fashion professionals, the intensive goes beyond simply teaching you how to walk. You will learn how to present garments, respond to runway direction, work within choreography and conduct yourself professionally at castings, fittings, rehearsals and live fashion shows.
