Shay Davis

I am a professional runway model and modeling coach who helps aspiring and developing models feel more prepared, polished, and confident.

With experience in modeling, runway work, fashion shows, auditions, photoshoots, and coaching, understands both sides of the industry: what it feels like to be the model in the room, and what it takes to help other models build the skills and presence needed to pursue new opportunities.

My coaching style is supportive, direct, and practical. Whether you are stepping onto the runway for the first time or refining your walk for future castings, I help you learn how to carry yourself, move with intention, and present yourself with confidence.

Modeling training

More Than Just Walking the Runway.

Modeling training is not only about appearance. It is about how you move, how you present yourself, how you respond to direction, and how confidently you show up in professional spaces.

Training with Shay can help you develop:

  • Runway walking and technique
  • Confidence and stage presence
  • Posing and body awareness
  • Audition and casting preparation

Build a stronger foundation

  • Professionalism and industry readiness
  • The ability to present yourself with confidence
  • Practical skills that can support future paid modeling opportunities

This training is beginner-friendly, but still focused and professional. You will get clear direction, real feedback, and a stronger foundation for your modeling journey.

What Models Are Saying

 

Shay is an amazing coach! Very professional and her coaching style works for me! She’s intentional, corrects and helps me get in the right mindset for my upcoming pageant. Having her as a confident model, also showed me the difference of walking purposefully and gracefully.

Shay was a great runway coach and made my first fashion show experience feel a lot less intimidating. She took time to teach us different poses for pictures, how to properly turn on the runway, and how to walk with more confidence and presence. Everything was explained in a way that was easy to understand and apply right away. Her energy was encouraging, professional, and supportive throughout the experience. Even in a short amount of time, I learned techniques that helped me feel more comfortable and confident on the runway. You can tell she genuinely enjoys helping models improve and feel confident in themselves! Overall, it was a really positive experience, and I’d definitely recommend Shay to anyone interested in runway coaching or modeling.

“My girlfriend booked Shay for a hour session and she was such a pleasure to work with, she was professional the entire time. Very encouraging towards both of us and realistic about expectations in the modeling world. Not only did she completely transform how she walked but she also helped her overcome some of her fears when it comes to modeling. After the session was over she went the extra mile and gave us very very useful information about the modeling world which will certainly help us advance our careers. I 100% recommend Shay as your modeling coach, I have no complaints.”

I had the opportunity to meet Shay in Phoenix and I can confidently say she embodies everything important in this space. The modeling training was well-explanatory, engaging, and enjoyable. As I step into my modeling career, she was able to provide meaningful guidance that I truly value. On top of her knowledge and professionalism, she brings a genuinely welcoming personality that makes the experience even more impactful.

"I absolutely loved my sessions with Shay! Shay is not only dedicated, she is inspiring and genuine!! Shay choreographed my formal wear and fitness routine for the Miss Georgia Teen USA pageant. My routine was amazing. Not only did I learn modeling technique we also practiced poses that helped me exuded confidence. I placed Top 15 in the state! I am truly grateful and thankful for her and her continued support on my journey."
