I think that group classes are most beneficial unless you are working on something specific (like an audition) and need one-on-one help.

I don't want to assume anything, and I am certainly not an expert, but I wanted to share if it would help you.

PS NYCastings (with an S) has a decent amount of modeling gigs (not sure how old your daughter is).
I did local theatre in my hometown. In college I did a bunch of productions (Musicals, Broadway Reviews, Operas, and a couple straight plays - although I don't enjoy those as much) and I took some classes (Musical Theatre Group Voice, Opera Workshop, Diction). I've done some local theatre in the Charlotte area. I also sing with the Oratorio Singers of Charlotte (Chorus of the Charlotte Symphony), and the Oratorio Chamber Group. So, no, I'm not COMPLETELY raw talent.

My daughter is 5, so she's probably not ready for NY Fashion Modeling.


Winni - I don't know anything about your market there. My agency said mid-summer is the busy season for children here, but I don't know if that applies where you are as well.
