PARKING
Parking is limited in the area. It is more of a suburban environment, on Laurel Canyon Blvd. in Valley Village.
We do recommend Uber/Lyft or being dropped off if you can arrange it. Frends Beauty is a block away from the Orange Line Laurel Canyon stop, so public transportation is also a wonderful option.
HOUSING
LMA does not have any housing services set up yet, but Valley Village is a safe area in a wonderful part of the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles. It’s next to Toluca Lake, Burbank and Studio City. If you have any questions regarding housing or the area, please let us know and we’ll be happy to advise.
HEALTH
Staff, instructors and models are fully vaccinated. The classroom will be setup with current industry standards in regards to hygiene and Covid protocols.
