| My name is Caelese and I started taking modeling classes when I was in 8th grade. That was possibly the funnest experience that I had since I last played a sport. It was so cool to meet girls my age and older who wanted to have a career in the same thing as me and that we worked together to achieve it. The classes taught me so much not only how to become a great model but also self-confidence. Before modeling classes, I was hopeless when it came to makeup. Now, when I wear it I look like I have been wearing it all my life. I feel so confident no matter where I am because I learned to accept myself for me. Because in this industry you need to know that because you can be shot down for jobs all the time but you need to know how to pick yourself back up again.
I am now 14 years old, in high school and I have graduated from my JC classes. I have been signed with the Ford Modeling Agency in Chicago! This is an experience and goal that I could not have achieved without the help of my amazing teachers who taught me everything I know. From learning to walk in high heels, how to apply makeup, how to pose for photos - all you need to know to be amazing. I owe all my success to John Casablancas Modeling in Hartford. If you want the very best you want JC - They will help you achieve the next level till you reach the top. Pick JC - Modeling there is the very best! With Love, Caelese |

| I have had the pleasure of working with the graduates from John Casablancas in Hartford, CT. The models were wonderful. The men and women were very professional in every aspect. They are always early for their fittings, rehearsals, and for the shows. When there is not a make-up artist available, their makeup application is always flawless. When it comes down to actually choreographing the show, the models are always on point, knowing the proper turns, stances, and various walks. I have worked with models from various places from North Carolina to Boston producing fashion shows for charity events. Now I book models from JC Hartford because I know that whatever show I put on it will be a success. |

| I graduated from the JC Center in Hartford about 10 years ago and have been modeling full time ever since. Tina has guided me every step of the way. If it wasn't for her.. I would not be as successful as I am today! Thankyou TINA!!! Tina placed me with an agency in Boston while I was still in high school (with braces). Then when the braces came off, we headed to NYC. I then signed with Elite.I spent a few months in NYC testing and getting ready for Europe, Then I worked in Milan for a few months, and moved to Paris, to work for almost 3 years. I then moved back to NYC and switched to Next Modeling agency. I lived in NYC for about 6 years and just got married and moved out to L.A., last year.
I have worked for tons of clients through the years, editorial in magazines, commercials, fashion shows, hair ads, bridal, swimsuit, lingerie, and lots of catalogues!
I have had a wonderful career, and owe it all to Tina and the Hartford JC Center. Tina has been a wonderful constant in my life. She will always call to check in on me, no matter where I am in the world. And I have always been able to call her from where ever I am in the world with a problem and she can always solve it! The skills I have taken with me from the Center have given me the confidence I needed to succeed not only in modeling , but in everyday life! I recommend the class to everyone! It will change your life!!!
Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou,
To Tina and the J.C. Hartford team!

| My association with John Casablancas in Berlin CT. has been absolutely fulfilling. I attended the school after being discovered by a recruiter and graduated in August 2000. My indoctrination consisted of exciting runway, make-up application, and commercial classes taught by enthusiastic instructors. As a result, my self-esteem had been enhanced and I gained modeling etiquette that I've applied during jobs as well as in my daily life. I've been shown immense loyalty and dedication by JC employees as they actively send me on castings locally and in NY. In 2004 a phone call from the center to appear for a casting for the Sports Ilustrated Model Search reality show that aired on NBC resulted in my selection as one of the 12 finalists! I continue to receive support from my JC family while I model in NY with an agency they introduced me too, even when I least expected it! I'm very, very grateful to John Casablancas. |

| I did the teen modeling course in Berlin Connecticut and graduated a while ago. It was a wonderful experience and taught me so many things that I will carry with me in life forever. Aso they also got me some good work and I'm still doing things with the company. JC has taught me things that you wouldn't learn anywhere else. I am so happy that I took classes at JC. It's been such a wonderful and rewarding program. Also, the staff there is great. They tell you everything you need to do/know and are more then happy to help with any questions you have whatsoever. The program has helped me prepare for job interviews elsewhere, look professional, do you makeup, along with endless other things. |

| Three years ago, while strolling through the vendor tents at the Greater Hartford Open Golf Tournament, a representative from the Hartford, CT branch of John Casablancas called me over to her table and asked if I had ever considered modeling. I immediatedly told her, "No I had not." But before I could take a step away to look at the cool hot tub display at the next table, the John Casablancas representative told me that I should seriously consider it, because of the fabulous opportunites available to those involved in modeling and fashion. I paused, then asked, "What kind of opportunities?". The rest is history.
As a graduate of John Casablancas' male modeling and commercial acting courses, I now know what the JC representative was talking about. Since graduating, I have had jobs in print, runway, on line, and in television commercials in CT, as well as MA. My image from a local television commercial for Hartford's international airport amazingly ended up on a national AT&T Wireless commercial. WOW! Who would of thunk it? Certainly not I.
I can't thank the excellent instructors at JC Hartford enough for providing me with the tools and top notch representation to allow for my success in this business. Special thanks to Tina, Nancy and Irene. Without their tireless efforts and guidance, none of the above would have been possible.
Much love and continued success,

My daughter has been going to JC since she was approx. 7 yrs. old. She will be 13 yrs. old shortly. I can't say enough about JC. I have the upmost respect for both Tina and Nancy. They have been nothing more than professional, honest and most of all, caring to the children that they teach. The little ones right on up to the teenagers, get a chance to build self confidence, express themselves, and really get a chance to shine as an individual. Some of these children may not turn out to be a Meg Ryan, or a Tyra Banks, but they really seem to walk away with a different perspective about themselves. JC is my daughters "home office" as I like to say. They gave her an initial start, and now it's up to my daughter whether or not she chooses to continue. Never force your child, the decision can't be your "dream", it "must" be your childs. She has taken Comm.Acting & Improv classes, which has prompted her to take other classes as a result of Irene's teaching. Irene is just one of the excellent teachers at JC.
It takes time to get jobs, and sometimes you go on quite a few auditions. But the kids learn that in life, you don't always get what you want, and they also learn that just because you do not get chosen, it does not mean that their is something wrong with you, it just that for that particular shoot, they were looking for a different look. JC teaches the kids that each and everyone is special in their own way, and that you just have to be patient, and of course it's all "timming".
My daughter has done several things thru JC, such as Bullying Videos, Promo Training Videos, Photo Shoots, Catalogs, etc. She also has branched out into NYC with some commercials, fit modeling, breast cancer awareness ads, medical documentary, etc.
Bottom line, is that the training, and the small price you initially pay, if your child enjoys it, the opportunities are endless and it's nice to be affiliated with an agency that puts the childrens interests first, and works with the parents.
My hat goes off to all at JC, from the secretaries right on up to the top. They are truly a "Class Act".

| I graduated from the women's program at John Casablancas in Hartford in 2001. It was one of the best things I have ever done for myself. Before attending JC I was shy, didn't know how to wear makeup, and didn't have a big clue about fashion. I had low self esteem and never thought I would be good enough for modeling. Now, I know how to do makeup, I'm more aware of fashion and how to present myself and sometimes you can't shut me up, which could be a good thing or bad thing. My self esteem has greatly improved.
In 2003 I had the opportunity to do a fashion show when Jennifer Lopez came out with her new line of swim wear. It was such an awesome feeling to know that I was modeling three different bathing suits designed by J. Lo. The fact that I got to keep them was a bonus. Since then I have done numerous different fashion shows.
It was around this time that I also became an instructor at JC Hartford. The main thing that I teach is exercise. I have had former students come up to me and tell me that weeks after I taught them they are continuing with the exercises. It feels really good to know that I made an impact on someone's life.
I don't regret my decision to come to JC. I would recommend it to anyone. It all comes down to having fun and with my experience at JC. I have never had so much fun! The people there are amazing and the people that I meet are amazing as well.
Thank you so much for all that you have done for me!

| I am a former student of the modeling program at the Hartford John Casablancas Center. I attended the program when I was only 15 and I feel lucky to have had exposure to the kinds of classes that are offered there. Upon graduating from the program the staff at JC was very helpful in getting me local work. I decided that modeling was not for me but I think that the program can be beneficial for anyone looking to gain greater self confidence and have fun while doing so. |
| Lisa (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| People told me I was nuts (and too old) to take Adult Modeling at John Casablancas. They had many negative things to say about the business but I wanted to see for myself. Well they were WRONG!
Having taken both Modeling and Acting there I find myself working on a regular basis and I enjoy what I do! The Instructors and Staff have been encouraging and supportive. Even after your out of the class you have a question they are willing to help. So many people seem not to understand that modeling like anything you must put effort into it to see success. The folks here will help you every step of the way...its up to you. |
| Patricia (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| Being a Makeup Artist instructor at John Casablanca’s Hartford for the past 5 years has allowed me to take the skills that I brought to the school to a higher level, which I might not have achieved on my own. As a result of my relationship with the professional and friendly staff I have become more effective as a teacher than I ever thought possible, and thus allowing me to achieve more and more of my goals. Through teaching I've begun to understand the difference and importance of being both an intellectual mentor and teaching from the heart, and the part each plays in being an effective instructor. I understand why caring about those who spend their hard earned money and time to advance themselves in the entertainment industry is such a critical factor in maintaining their trust and commitment. I've found that asking for input from my students and supervisors is a more effective technique than just dispensing information. I want to continue building on my skills as a teacher so I can continue to promote with confidence the students own professional and personal fulfillment. Sincerely Joby Rogers. |

| Hello my name is Harry and I am 15.. I graduated from John Casablancas in Berlin in December of 07. None of my friends know I am doing this because I want them to be surprised when they see my face in a store.. I loved the experience with the training that they offer.. it is DEFINITELY worth it. I didn't know anybody when i started off but i have made a lot of new friends and the teachers are great... It is alot of work but it is worth it -I love it.. If anybody says you can't be a model because you have no skills don't believe them... That is what my best friend told me but I am like I can do this.. 12 weeks of training of learning about clothes and diets, makeup, runway or even face shots they tell you everything you need to know.. So ask your parents.. You have a great chance like I had. Parents please give your child a chance let them experience being a model it is worth it. THANK you for your time.. |

| Stormi (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| Hey, I'm 16 years old and I took the Professional Modeling for Women's Course at John Casablancas Modeling and Career Center in Berlin, CT. I always thought I was too short to be a model. But a JC representative actually recruited me in a mall. She told me I don't have to be 5'10, size 00, blonde hair, blue eyes, to be a model, she said I have the cute and adorable look. She came up to me and told me to try it out. So I did. And I don't regret it. All my paychecks went towards the tuition and supplies, with some help from my parents. But it was all worth it in the end. I lerned things I never thought I would. And I'm good at them too. I don't even wear make-up on a daily basis, but I could apply it better than most kids my age. From the catwalk, to the photoshoots, I loved every aspect of the program. It gave me confidence and knowledge. Not just about modeling but about nutrition, communication skills, skin care, and much more. John Casablancas is not for everyone. But I recommend it to anyone who wants to raise their self-esteem, do local modeling on the side for some extra cash and fun (like me), or wants to become America's Next Top Model. John Casablancas is the place to begin. It goes from being you rschool, to your agency. What's better than that? I'm 5 feet tall, size 3, brown curly hair, brown eyes, and Puerto Rican but I can proudly say that I am a JC model. |
| Julievette (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |

|
I learned to have a lot more confidence in myself and I think it was a great experience. I learned how to properly pose and how to properly walk down the runway which was a lot of fun. I also leaned how to be more comfortable in front of the camera thanks to Walter, my photographer. He was always so friendly and was a lot of fun which made his class my absolute favorite. I also learned some tips to be more comfortable in front of the camera in my television classes. |

| I have attended the Professional Women's Modeling course at John Casablancas in Hartford, and graduated approximately 6 months ago. Since then, I've built a portfolio and comp card by working with JC's wonderful photographers, and even having a private shoot with Tina. I was since booked on several promotional modeling jobs around Connecticut, independent films and even a mini-series for ESPN. I am now looking forward to expanding to the New York market. I have always wanted to pursue a career in the performing arts and fashion industry, and I am so grateful to Tina and everyone at JC for helping me get started. Because of Tina's help, I've just signed with Gilla Roos agency in New York City for Commercial Print Modeling, and am a featured model on their website. I look forward to continue working with everyone at JC!! |

| olivia (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I had wonderful time at JC. I learned so much here and made many friends. I always wanted to be a model ever since I saw models on magazines or on a runway on TV, then finally signed up to be one. When I did, I learned so much here that could possibly start a career for me and I hope it does because all my training was worth it. After going through training here I feel more confident and happy with myself. |

| The teachers and staff of John Casablancas, Hartford, CT have got to be the most professional and down-to-earth people in the business. They've taught me so much in the 14 week Professional Women's Modeling program. They have all taught me to be a more self-confident, professional woman. Now I can go into this industry with a big smile on my face, and my head held high. I can't single out any coach/teacher and say one's the best, they are all individually fantastic people. I couldn't have asked for more from my coaches. I've also been through the commercial acting courses with Irene. And I've learned things in only a few months that would've taken me years to figure out on my own. Now when I move to Hollywood, I know exactly what I'm doing, and what this industry is looking for. Thank you John Casablancas, for all the knowledge you've given me. |
| Vikz (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I have enjoyed my experience at JC for the pre-teen modeling course. It was exciting to meet other kids who are also interested in modeling. I learned a lot about myself. My parents enjoyed my runway fashion show. |

| Hi, my daughter Melissa went to Hartford/Berlin classes. She is going back for her agency meeting. She really liked going to the classes and is looking forward to being with John Casablancas. She is really excited and loved the teachers. Everyone is so very nice. |

| I loved attending classes at John Casablancas; my special favorites were the photography and TV commercial classes.I loved the teachers because they were very nice and helpful.I finished my modeling classes and in the summer I will be attending commercial acting classes. I can't wait to come back to John Casablancas!

| Jessica (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I've been attending John Casablancas Modeling and Career Center located in Berlin, CT for about a month now. I've really enjoyed meeting new people and making friends. Learning what is right and what is wrong is what I'm doing as a student taking the Women's Professional Modeling. So far I've learned how to walk, eat healthy, do eyebrows and do my hair. It was nice to hear suggestions and ideas that each instructor has. Though I've only attended for about 4 weeks I see a change within myself (and my sister who has been taking classes with me). I can't wait to see what other new skills I learn from JC. |
| Lisa (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I currently attend John Casablanca Modeling and Career Center located in Berlin, Connecticut. I have been taking classes for Women'S Professional Modeling for about a couple of months now. Ever since I joined John Casablancas it has been such a great experience. The whole staff at John Casablancas has been wonderful and great. I always felt like I was the shy and quiet girl but the staff at John Casablancas has made me feel more confident in myself. Everyone who works there has such great energy and good personality. Practically no one makes you feel left out especially the girls in my class. In the classes I learned so many things like how to apply make-up, walk, style hair, exercise, eat healthy, and posture. My favorite part of school was learning how to do my own make-up. The instructors have shown me techniques that I never knew before and now I can do my own make-up that looks professional . Sometimes I just can't wait to attend my classes at John Casablancas over going out with my friends. It's something that I look forward to everyday. This has been a great life experience and one that I will never regret. I highly recommend anyone to attend John Casablancas and no where else. Just remember it is something that can be a life changing experience. |
| Irene (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| My name is Crystal and I graduated around December. I just have to say that this experience has been the best thing in my life. You meet so many new people and you have so much fun. I first thought that I was not going to have a lot of fun, but man was I wrong! I brought my cousin into it and we took classes together. The runway classes have improved the way I walk and I even find myself walking the cat walk through the hallway! The television classes have helped me when I talk in front of my class for projects. I can't even tell you how much fun you'll have if you join the program. Thanks. |
| Crystal (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |

My time here has been so enjoyable. Tina and Nancy, as well as the rest of the staff, have been very encouraging to myself as well as other students. I love runway and have had a blast with the pro-mo jobs. I love all the agents and will continue to pursue my career with modeling. John Casablancas of Hartford CT Rocks !!!!!!! |
| sarah (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| My experience at John Casablancas has been very rewarding. I have learned a lot from them. Not only in modeling but in life. they have taught me useful skills such as interviewing skills that I will be able to carry with me all my life. The teachers are great and very patient when we don't understand something. I would recommend everyone to take the classes. It is a very fun experience and so far I have been enjoying each class. The atomosphere is great. The classes have helped me grow as a person. I think I have become more confident and more polite to adults. I feel like I can handle myself better. Thank you John Casablancas for this wonderful experience. |
| Danielle (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| At JC in Hartford, CT I absolutely loved the staff and their classes. They really help to boost your confidence and realize your true potential. Thanks to the JC Agency. |

| Being at JC increased my experience of personal skills, confidence and male composure. I am a recent graduate that looks forward for many opportunities in the present and future. I am grateful that I was educated in the modeling field by excellent instructors.

| Henry (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I have been a JC model for 4 years. I had the pleasure of working with Greg and Monik at the runway troop. I think I have developed the confidence and what it takes to represent the agency. John Casablancas has given me this great opportunity to succeed some day in the modeling buisness. I am thankful to the agency,and will continue to hope for a big break. Thank you once again.

| Jude (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| My experience at John Casablancas (Hartford) has been nothing but good experiences. I began attending classes 5 years ago. I have enjoyed it so much that I auditioned for a select group, which consists of about 25 -30 people, who meet once a month and rehearse runway. I feel that because of this group, I have become significantly better at my runway skills and it as helped me get more jobs doing runway. I also feel that my social skills have skyrocketed because of the classes. I think this JC experience has honestly helped me realize my true potential and it now allows me to express myself freely. |
| Sean (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| John Casablancas is a very wonderful school. I especially love their runway troop. It gives me a lot of practice. The teachers and students/participants, give me tips on how I'm doing and/or how to do it better. I also have learned how to be a better person. This school helped me to be more social. I can go up to people who I don't even know and talk. I might just say a little bit, but I'm getting better. Also seeing how this school is located practically in Hartford it is an easy location for me to get to and from. I also love how every runway troop meeting has variety and not just a certain age or race. It gives you a diversity of style and other attitudes. Thank You. |
| Erinne (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| Starting at John Casablancas in Berlin ,CT has been very fun to me. It is teaching me to believe in myself more than I thought I could. The teachers there are very nice and very helpful. When I took my first class I thought I wasn't gonna be able to do it or that the girls in my class were gonna be very hard on me but when I got there it was so much different and I am enjoying it a lot. I think this is one of the best decisions I made in my life and I'm glad I chose JC. It was the right choice! |
| ty (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| My daugther is taking Children's Modeling. She likes the classes very much, all the teachers are really good with kids. The facilities are excellent and as soon as you go into the building everybody that works at JC says hello to you, it's feel very good. |
| Maria (Parent of Gabriela writing about John Casablancas -

| I really loved the course because it has taught me a lot of stuff and when I grow up and have kids I am definitely putting my kids through this wonderful course. |
| Taylor (Former student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I'm now in the process of finishing my professional Male Modeling Courses for John Casablancas in Berlin, CT and all I can say is that the instructors are great people, the atmosphere is fun and very educational in many many ways and everyone has been wonderful and very helpful. The classes have made me excited and eager to start work as a John Casablancas male model. |
| Marco (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I graduated from John Casablancas' Womens' Division in Berlin, CT about two years ago. Over the years, I have taken acting lessons and several years of dance classes, and always wanted to get into modeling. Coming from a strict mom, I wasn't able to do the modeling as a child, but decided when I was 37 that it was now okay to make the decision to join. I was happy to see that John Casablancas was so accepting to someone of my age. I was in a great class of women and the teachers were excellent. I especially liked Melissa, Nancy and Irene. They are very down-to-earth, fun and honest. The photographer on hand, Heather, is very professional and her pictures come out great! This is a great experience at any age and you always feel like you have a home at JC! I am looking forward to being a part of the continuing family for years to come! |
| Dale (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| My daughter completed the women's modeling program at John Casablancas, Hartford (Berlin). It is truly a school, as it actually teaches the students in depth about the profession that they have chosen to learn more about. The program thoroughly prepares the students with the skills that are necessary to enter into the modeling world. Some of the skills students learn are: runway walking, skin care, nutrition/exercise, hair care/styles, make up, photos/posing, fashion, television/acting, etc. The staff is very knowledgable, helpful and strives to bring out the best in every student. I've found that my daughter gained a lot of confidence about herself and her ability to enter into modeling. It's a hands-on program that's interesting and a lot of fun too! As a result my daughter Catherine has done some local work and local modeling in fashion runway shows. With the help of Tina Kiniry, the agency president, my daughter Catherine has had the opportunity to go on photo shoots in New York City which have helped to develop her portfolio and her comp card. Tina has also arranged for Catherine to attend go-sees and interviews with modeling agencies in New York. Because of Tina's continued interest and promotion of my daughter, a New York City modeling agency is interested in her and has called her for several castings. Tina has helped guide Catherine along the way and takes a genuine interest in her and her career by regularly keeping in touch with her. I would highly recommend the John Casablancas Modeling and Career Center program in Hartford to anyone interested in a modeling career. Tina and her staff are truly dedicated to their profession.

| Casey attended the John Casablancas Modeling & Career Center in Berlin Ct. From day one everyone at the agency was helpful and supportive . Whenever we had questions they were answered sincerely and as accurate as possible. Casey always felt comfortable and encouraged at all times. We first met Mellissa and she was helpful and directed us in the right direction,(always supportive). Then Tina Kiniry held our hand the rest of the way. She has always made Casey feel confident and sure of herself, as well as myself. We've always felt that Tina never led us on . She always tells you like it is. She makes it fun!!!
I would definatley recommend the John Casablanca of Berlin Ct. to anyone who might be interested in a career in Modeling. It's a great place to start! |
| Gail (Parent of Casey writing about John Casablancas -

| My two children Alex and Emily started the Pre-Teen modeling class 10 weeks ago and what a change I have seen. They are more confident when speaking to other children and adults. They have also taken a lot from the nutrition and personal hygiene classes as well. The school has been excellent with our crazy schedule and other activities allowing us to reschedule the necessary classes. I would highly recommend checking out John Casablancas for your children. |
| VICKI (Parent of Emily, Alex writing about John Casablancas -

| Starting classes at John Casablancas has really helped me to learn what it's like to be in the world of entertainment. I plan on making a future in musical theater, and learning about body movement, makeup, and acting is really helping me learn about what I'm going to need to improve to make my career happen. I love learning about how to use all different kinds of makeup colors, and how to apply all of it. I also love how great the teachers are. Some of them can be kind of crazy at times, but we all have fun during the classes, and it is great to take everything I learn here and bring it to theater auditions, and to teach my theater friends about the things that I learn here. John Casablancas is a great place. |
| Sarah (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| My time at the John Casablancas so far is a great experience. At first I wasn't really sure as to how to walk or how to apply make-up but the teachers here at John Casablancas, let you make your own mistakes and they simply correct you on whatever it is that you have done wrong. This was my first time ever attempting to take classes for being a model, but everytime I make a mistake I tell myself it is okay because all of the hottest models had to start off somewhere even if it meant making a correctable mistake!! |
| Desirae (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| The John Casablancas program has given me a new respect for models. Every week I learn a new way to make myself look better, feel better, and just be a better person in general. I have learned so much, this is truly a great program, I am honored to be part of it, and I will carry what I learn here throughout the rest of my life. Thank you John Casablancas! |
| Rebecca (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| Hello, I just want to write a few words about my experience at John Casablancas Modeling and Career Center. I came to this place with no experience and high hopes. I feel that the facility and most importantly, the instructors are fantastic and helpful; but most of all they make you feel comfortable and confident. I could not have asked for anything more and cannot wait to continue my ventures in this exciting industry. Thank you JC, because of you I have a bright future in the "biz"!! |
| Lauren (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| Hi ,Im Jessica. I'm a student at John Casablancas in Hartford. I'm a member of the women's professional modeling course. It's been a wonderful experience. I am only halfway through with the 14 week program and I have already learned so much with everything from runway to makeup application. I would advise anyone who is not sure about joining the program to do it because you really do learn everything you need to know about all of the different aspects of modeling. |
| Jessica (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| This is my 3rd week at John Casablancas and it's absolutely amazing. Not only do you learn how to model, you learn things you'll use for the rest of your life such as health, fitness, skin care, make up & so much more. If you are thinking about doing it.. don't hesitate! |
| Liz (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |

| John Casablancas is such a life changing experience! It is also a great way to meet so many nice people. Honestly, this has made me such a better person, mentally and physically. This fourteen week program is phenomanal. It opens doors for so many people and lets toddlers, kids and adults become better people. John Casablancas is not only fun and entertaining, it also helps people find themeselves! And maybe take a shy, timid guy or girl and change them into a vibrant, exciting young man or woman! John Casablancas is wonderful! |
| Raven (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I think John Casablancas was a great program to be in. It helped raise my confidence and made me feel good about myself. The teachers where great and I made a lot of new friends. |
| Elacia (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| John Casablancas has been a WONDERFUL experience for me. Being almost done with my classes in JC, I feel that I have learned a lot. Not only about modeling, but I have learned a lot about myself as a person. I think that with doing this I have raised my confidence. I know that if I don't get any jobs with this I will always carry with me that my confidence is even better then it was before. If you are thinking about doing this, I think that you should give it a try. Working with JC is an experience that I will never forget. |
| Heather (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |

| Lauren (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| At John Casablancas, I learned a lot of valuble skills that will hopefully help me in the future and when I am pursuing a career in modeling. The instructors were very nice and easy to learn from and ask questions. I love seeing all the pictures of models who "made it" around the building; it gives me inspiration. The classes were somewhat pricey, but will hopefully pay off in the long-run. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience at John Casablancas. |
| Alexx (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |

| My daughter Shea has been working with JC in Hartford, CT since she was 4 yrs old, she is now 9. She has enjoyed her journey in the modeling and acting world. Shea started off in modeling and then went through the acting. She has learned a lot from JC and the best part is when she goes on shoots or even interviews she is having so much fun!!! Thank you so much for making this experience so enjoyable for my daughter, she has become so good at this and I give a lot of credit to the staff at the Hartford office. Thanks again. |
| Kimberly (Parent of Shea writing about John Casablancas -

| I graduated from John Casablancas in December 2003. Since then I have had numerous experiences working in the field. Being the mother of 3 and "40ish", taking on a new endeavor was exciting and scary all at the same time. The staff at JC consistently encouraged and reminded me that not all models are 19 years of age and size 0! Since graduation, I have had an opportunity to participate in runway events, represent, and recruit for the agency. I would encourage any woman that enjoys fashion and a flair for something different, to see what John Casablancas Model and Talent Agency is all about. I did and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. |
| Gail (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| Before attending the John Casablancas school of modeling in Hartford I was shy, self conscious and extremely ignorant of how the modeling industry worked. I took the classes five years ago and feel that they have completely turned my life around. There isn't a single day that goes by where I feel like I haven't used something that I learned from the school. The instructors are very informative and helpful. I felt so good about the classes they offer that I even went back, years later, and took their make up artistry course. Modeling has always been a dream of mine. John Casablancas is helping me make it a reality. |
| Lyndsey (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I had taken the classes in Hartford Conneticut. At first, before I had started I was extremely nervous, and did not know what to expect. However, John Casablancas was a relaxed setting, and made me very comfortable. I met many new people who were also scared at first, but like me, found out that it was fun. I am very pleased with the program, and glad I had chosen to get into modeling and take the classes. |
| Michelle (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I graduated from John Casablancas in Hartford in 2000. Two years ago I moved back to CT and decided to pick up my modeling career. Since then I became an Instructor of Runway, Communications, and Makeup. I thoroughly enjoy teaching models the techniques for making it in the industry. All the models from JC that I have had the pleasure of working with have been very knowledgeable and professional. I recently was booked with an agency in NY. I thank Tina and Nancy for guiding me and most importantly believing in me every step of the way. |
| Kara (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| John Casablancas (Hartford, CT) is the most amazing place. It has the best staff who are really nice and very knowledgeable. It was really fun spending time there learning and working with them. JC has taught me a lot of very useful things that I'll use in real life as well as in the modeling industry. When they first called me and we set up an interview I was soo excited. I mean John Casablancas wants to interview me of all people. I had known about JC from a close friend and I heard only the best about it. And from going through the program I can see that everything she said is correct. These past 14 weeks have been the best of my life and I'll never forget them. Thank you everyone from JC for getting me involved in such an opportunity of a lifetime. |
| Julie (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I graduated from John Casablancas a while ago and Tina has recently been trying to place me in a New York agency. She has never given up on me, and I find that's how everyone at John Casablancas is. They are very caring people who have given me so much confidence and they are such a huge help in making my dreams come true! Tina has made such a difference to me, and no matter what happens I am so thankful for everything that she has done for me and for believing in me through everything. Thanks so much John Casablancas!! |
| Becky (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| John Casablancas Modeling and Talent Management of Hartford Connecticut has taught my doughter everything she could ever need to know to be a model. They helped her become comfortable in front of a camera and on the runway. This was an amazing experience that I would have loved to have done when I was her age. Much appreciation to JC!

| Deborah (Parent of Jessica writing about John Casablancas -

| I took John Casablancas Modeling and Acting classes because I've always wanted to be in front of the camera. The Hartford JC Cchool has taught me so much about myself and how to present myself as a lady. Before I came to John Casablancas I was a MAJOR tomboy, now I feel comfortable in whatever I wear and whoever I'm around. THANK YOU JOHN CASABLANCAS! |
| Jessica (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| I participate in the John Casablancas Model Management of Hartford. Modeling really never was something I planned to do. When I was younger it never crossed my mind because I was a size 1 and tall. But John Casablancas looks for the things you do have. The classes were not as easy as I figured they would be but they are still a lot of fun. You make a lot of new friends through your classes and it definitly helps boost your self esteem. Just don't let it go to your head! It's definitly a good experience and I believe that it will take me and many others far. |
| Bridget (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| Since joining the John Casablancas school, my daughter has developed a strong self esteem and confidence about herself. She was some what shy prior to joining and now is more outgoing and cheerful. The class has tought her poise, hair facts, skin care, and the proper method to apply make-up. She now has the self-confidence and strength that I have always known she has.
I can't wait to see the "finished" product when she has completed the class!!! |
| Joe (Parent of Jessica Natale writing about John Casablancas -

| I think JC is a great start for any child that wants to be noticed. It gives them the confidence that they need to succeed in life as well as feeling good about themselves as a person. JC is definitely a positive atmosphere for kids to be in and they love it. |
| Noel (Parent of Alicia writing about John Casablancas -

| John Casablancas contacted me through a model search. From the first day I have been learning helpful skills by friendly and knowledgable staff. I know the skills I'm learning will help me pursue any dream. Before coming here I was so nervous about the scams I heard about of other managers, but John Casablancas is creditable and sincere. I am enjoying my best learning experiences here. |
| Daria (Student at John Casablancas - Hartford) |
| My daughter has gained so much confidence through this program. She feels that having the chance to attend is the greatest thing that has ever happened to her. My daughter has made so many friends. She can never stop talking about what she learned and how she loves the instructors. This program can put a smile on anyone's child. JC is the way to go! |
| Elizabeth (Parent of Jessica writing about John Casablancas -

| When I started going to John Casablancas Modeling school I thought it was too good to be true that this school would help me proceed in a dream of mind to become a model and help me move on through my journey. As I went to classes and started learning more and more I saw this dream become much clearer. I know now once I graduate I will move further then if I tried doing this by myself. I have a lot of faith in this school and a lot of faith in God that I will succeed in what iIm going to do in the near future. Without John Casablancas I know I would be still struggling to try rise to the top and become a model. |

| My name is Jessica and I am attending modeling classes at John Casablancas in Hartford. I am from Bristol and love this program. Being in this has changed my life. I feel like I can do something with my life and that I have a chance in making something out of myself. Being at the studio makes me feel like I'm at home. The instructors also play a big role in what makes this program so great. All the intructors are friendly and fun to have in the classroom with you. They give great pointers and helpful advice. They are always there for you when you need help on anything or when you just need a self confidence boost.I have learned so much in how to just be myself and try my hardest. Being able to come to John Casablancas modeling agency every week is the greatest feeling. If I had to recommend this program to anyone else I would say go for it. This has changed my life for the better and will for anyone else.Without the help of my parents the instructors and all my friends at the studio I wounld'nt be able to say this is the greatest thing that has every happened to me. |

| My daughter started at JC in her early teens. She couldn't wait to attend the classes! Not only did she learn so much, she gained so much self-confidence. Being 5'2" didn't matter either--her first job she was chosen as the holiday Weathervane Girl--full photo shoot plus her picture all over the holiday catalog-- not to mention the money she made. She still continues to work as a model for JC and looks forward to the opportunities that await! Betsy

| I like the program! Tt has shown me the correct and proper ways to apply makeup, and walk the runway. I hope that after my time is done here I come across many modeling opportunities. I feel that the teachers as well as staff here have made it a fun learning experience for me. My most favorite class that I've had while here is the makeup classes. They go step by step application, and removal. Before coming here I never wore makeup, know I wear it when I go out into everyday sititutions. Thank you John Casablancas for helping me. |
