My mother, who was getting nowhere with constantly reminding me to stand up straight because of my poor posture, enrolled me in private Grace, Poise and Modeling lessons at age 14. Once a week I traded my basketball shoes for high heeled pumps and had a lady mentor me on how to sit, stand and walk with grace and perfect posture. After 8-9 months of lessons and practice, I entered and won a contest. Never again would mama have to nag me!
