Our Story
The Podium Academy was founded in June 2024 with a clear mission: to elevate young talent and provide exceptional kids modeling training in Edmonton, AB. Inspired by several years of personal model journey experience, The Podium Academy was created to offer a nurturing environment where kids and teens can develop their skills in a professional modeling academy setting—without the need to travel far.
​
At The Podium Academy, we bring top-notch model coaches to Edmonton, delivering expert runway training for kids and youth and creating local modeling opportunities that help our students shine. By collaborating with local brands and businesses, we offer our Podium Kids hands-on experience while supporting the Edmonton community in a spirit of partnership.
​
Since our launch, TPA has successfully hosted multiple training sessions focused on runway training and posing skills in Edmonton, AB. Participants gain confidence, improved posture, and polished body language, all while fostering a positive and healthy body image. Partnering with the local businesses, we’ve provided young models the chance to practice their skills and experience professional modeling right here in Edmonton, AB.
​
In May 2025, we celebrated the close of our modeling training season for kids and teens in Edmonton, AB, which culminated in the much-anticipated The Podium Academy Runway Rendezvous Show. The event showcased our students’ hard work and growth, bringing together families, local partners, and the community to celebrate their achievements on the runway.
