When I was 18, I visited with the hopes of finding an agency I could afford. You manipulated me to abruptly sign with you, it took me a year to pay off these “classes” $100 a week for a year!! I wanted to be an actress so badly that even on my low income wage and being in uni I did it because they Told me I should invest in my future now while I’m young or nobody would hire me because I’ll be too old. The classes, they taught me nothing. I was ridiculed by the catwalk teacher and went home feeling like rubbish every day of that one week. The acting class was fun, and the makeup teacher was nice but everything else about this place is pretentious and discriminatory and prays off the insecurities of young, low/middle class young women. I never went back for my final review because I was disgusted at how much money they took from me and the pathetic content of those expensive “classes”.

I had a great experience pursuing Dip in Acting and Modelling from Style Academy. Teachers are really experienced and help a great deal in teaching right skills. This course has really taught me so much and developed my confidence as well. Excited and looking forward to working with the team!

Thanks to style academy, I was able to learn new skills and techniques that will benefit myself to achieve what I want to achieve in the creative arts industry. The teachers were not only lovely but skilled and confident about wanting each of their students to learn something new. I would definitely recommend Style Academy

Style Academy really gave me the experience and understanding of the Modelling industry that I never knew before. The professionalism of the teachers were great and all staff are extremely friendly. The three courses are incredibly important to give you the proper knowledge that will help push your Modelling career. Each class was great fun and we all had many laughs throughout. Highly recommend Style Academy 😊

Owner's response

Look I went into style academy hopeful but was was roped into an expensive course and photo shoot. I had a follow up meeting and then was expecting to sign up or something but no... nothing. I only receive generic texts about runway things even though if they paid attention to my interests and talent runway is NOT one of them. I have had way more jobs through star now which costs $8 a month. Finally, the photos from the shoot were barely passable. I am thoroughly disappointed. 2 stars instead of 1 because the staff are lovely and I wish I could leave a more positive review.

Owner's response

Hi Georgia! Sorry this was your experience with us. Yes, Style Academy may be pricier than some programs. However, this allows us to offer the best, most personalized services to all of our students. Instead of simply taking acting or modeling classes, we walk all of our students through the steps it takes to succeed in our industry or whichever industry they decide to pursue. We help to build their resume, portfolio shots, and much more. Our exclusive in house agency Moda Models also gives our students direct access to work and a chance to experience the real life process of working in the entertainment industry.

So far, I have enjoyed a lot the experience with Style Academy. The result of my first photoshoot is amazing and beyond my expectations. I am very excited to continue improving my modeling and acting skills through the amazing and comprehensive couses offered by the agency.

The courses that they provided were a great experience delivered by industry experts who taught me helpful skills. The teachers, students and staff were approachable and supportive. The photo shoot I did with them was amazing. All the artists were friendly and provided me with support and direction. All in all it was an exciting experience that I won't forget. Thanks to all the staff and teachers!

Thank you Shae!

My experience with Style Acedemy was quite disappointing, they have their favorite students amongst everyone. I did an acting and modeling course at the beginning of the year, out of the 6 classes that you have to do I only really enjoyed two of them which was photographing class. The other classes weren’t really necessary as they were all basic knowledge (in my opinion) The information I got provided was once you’ve completed the classes, they will give you a call and arrange an overall interview to discuss how you went in those classes and you also get the photographs you’ve taken. Well I didn’t get a call, I emailed them asking if they could give me a call, I didn’t get a call then I called them, went straight to voicemail so then I emailed them again and still no response then about a month after this, they call me and ask if I wanted to do a photo shoot package because that package was on sale, once I declined due to going to Europe for 6 weeks, her response was “but it’s only $350 I’m sure you can do that”

Owner's response

Hi Angelina,<br>We are sorry that your experience was not what you expected. It is our prerogative to help our students and guide them through all the way to become succesful in the industry. We would like like to rectify this situation, so please give us a call so we can assist you further.

I had a horrible experience with this business. I attended a meeting to learn about what competitions and courses they had available last year. I was talked into signing up to one of their courses under the agreement I would have the chance to attend it before the end of the year. I told the consultant my unavailabilities and she assured me that they would make a courses available to me when I was available before the end of the year. Due to this information and the consultant telling me I would get work from this course, I paid upfront. However each course I was sent was directly when I was unavailable, and so each time I would call and they promised the next would be when I could attend. Towards the end of the year I was sent an invitation for their end of year ceremony. I contact them asking for a refund as there were no more classes available that year and I would be completely unavailable in 2018. They refused and eventually stopped taking my calls and will not respond to emails. I explained to them that I was a young uni student with absolutely no financial support from anywhere else and can not afford to be out of pocket over $1400 for nothing, however they did not care or show any interest in reaching a resolution. They are scam artists and I would suggest everyone stay as far away from them as you can.

Owner's response

We are sorry that you feel this way Tayla. Regarding refund, our records show that you were booked into a course that you did not attend. Your spot was secured, 6 teachers were booked including industry make up artist, fashion photographer, catwalk model, nutritionist, personal trainer, and experienced actor, and the course was running, however, you have not given us any notice that you were not going to attend. Our courses run all year round in school holidays and on the weekends. We are more then happy to offer you an alternative date and if you are unavailable this year, we have courses available next year for you. Please contact us so we can come to a resolution that would suit your availability. Hope to hear from you soon.
