Well known Australian eco model Amanda Rootsey has recently launched a new initiative called SHINE From Within, which specialises in delivering a series of courses to young women in areas like nutrition and natural skin care, online networking, model training, TV presenting and more. During January, SHINE is running the first of its Model Masterclasses on the Sunshine Coast, giving aspiring models the chance to learn from industry professionals in a holistic environment. The masterclass is unique in that it not only gives students the tools to look great, but it equally values giving them the tools nourish their mind, body and spirit. Best of all, students get the chance to hear and learn from Amanda Rootsey herself, a former international model and arguably Australia’s very first eco model. You can find out more about the Masterclass and the SHINE From Within initiative at the SHINE website or on the facebook page.
