The Art of Crowning

Pageant Training

Winning is so much more than how you look on stage. Winning begins with your paperwork and preparation and the decision as to whether you make the top 5 happens in the interview. Every aspect of your preparation is important – from how you fill out your contestant information, what you wear to the interview, the selection of your talent, swimsuit, fitness, casual wear, fun wear, evening gown, and how you present yourself and speak on stage. Of all the areas of competition, however, the interview is the most under-estimated. Why is the interview so important? It's typically the FIRST TIME the judges see you, and it's really the only time where you can really distinguish yourself and allow the judges to learn who you are and not just what you look like. Interview is the only portion of competition where you can set yourself apart from all the other attractive, in-shape, intelligent contestants in the competition in order to win that crown.
