Meet Our Pageant Coaches: Expert Guidance in Runway, Speech, and Fitness

Every successful contestant has one thing in common: strong guidance.

At Omica Pageant, we don’t just prepare you for the stage, we prepare you to stand out. That’s where our two coaches, Mr. Udit Panday and Mrs. Runa Laha, come in. Together, they bring runway precision, powerful speech training, and the confidence-boosting skills every contestant need before stepping into the spotlight. ✨

Udit Panday — Runway & Stagecraft

If you’ve ever watched a pageant and wondered why some contestants look effortless on stage, chances are they’ve worked with a runway coach for pageants like Udit Panday. He focuses on posture, body alignment, and the rhythm of each step. So, the contestants never feel lost under the lights.

What makes his training stand out is the detail. Contestants learn how to move in sync with stage marks, keep spacing natural, and carry a walk that looks just as sharp on camera as it does in the live room.

Runa Laha — Speech, Grooming, & Confidence

Runway presence is powerful, but your voice and personality seal the impression. That’s where pageant speech training with Runa Laha makes the difference. She teaches contestants how to frame answers, manage diction, and deliver thoughts with clarity and impact. Her coaching goes beyond words—she helps contestants connect with judges, handle interviews with confidence, and maintain poise even off the runway.

As Omica’s official grooming partner, Runa also guides styling, ensuring each contestant’s look holds up under stage lights and cameras. It’s not just about appearance, but about presenting a polished version of yourself from head to toe.

Why Pageant coach’s matter

Here’s the truth: nobody wins a crown by chance. Contestants improve because their coach gives them targeted feedback, run mock auditions, and replicate real rehearsal conditions. That means when you finally step onto the stage, nothing feels unfamiliar.

What They Teach — A Practical Breakdown

⌯⌲ Runway: from first step to final pose

• Posture and pelvic alignment that keep your walk elegant.
• Heel-to-toe stride practice at multiple tempos.
• Understanding stage corners and marks to stay centered.

Pro tip: Record your short runs and watch them back at 0.5x speed to spot posture flaws quickly.

⌯⌲ Speech & Interview: structure, clarity, impact

• Open with a clear framing line.
• Use a 3-point structure: statement, example, tie-back.
• Train vocal variety and breath control to cut filler words.

Pro tip: Rehearse answers out loud, then trim to 20–30 seconds for sharper delivery.

⌯⌲ Fitness & Conditioning: stamina that lasts

• Core strength and mobility over heavy muscle bulk.
• Short HIIT sessions paired with posture drills.
• A steady nutrition plan—protein and hydration during rehearsal weeks.

Pro tip: Mix strength sets with runway practice, so your walk looks powerful but never stiff.

How does coaching work in a Beauty pageant?

• Assessment: short walk + interview to identify three priorities.
• Personal plan: weekly focus areas (walk, voice, wardrobe rehearsal).
• Group sessions: runways and mock panels to build timing and presence.
• Final polish: dress run-throughs and camera-ready feedback.

Conclusion

Pageant training is more than looking good on stage. It’s about building presence, confidence, and stamina that carry you through auditions, interviews, and the finale itself. With Udit Panday and Runa Laha guiding you, you’re not just preparing—you’re transforming.
