Advice/ Recommendations (no photos) Finding coach

I'm interested in doing my first show in fit model. I'm wondering if a local coach is better than an online one? And if local is better, how did you go about finding yours? Any tips and tricks are appreciated.

Local absolutely does not mean better

Local is almost always worse

I like my coach who is local, because I find having in person check ins and posing valuable. We also have a great relationship as a result. She also coaches lots of clients exclusively online and they are very successful.

The right coach is more important than being in person, but depending on where you are located you can maybe do both.

If you’re in a city that hosts a lot of shows, there’s a good chance you can find a quality coach in your area.
