• Why pay in US funds at a higher rate of exchange? We are in Canada!

• We can be reached within 10-15 minutes from the airport, making it convenient for students who are flying in.

• Why pay extra for a starter kit? You get one included with everything you need for your training, and it is yours to keep. We only use a tattoo pen machine, as it is much easier to use than a coil gun. And all you need is one tattoo pen machine, as opposed to 2 coil guns – one for outlining and one for shading. Your starter kit is contained in a metal case for your convenience.

• If you bring your own kit, it could be lacking some things you need for your training and could cost you more to order these missing items. Also, there will be a waiting period for delivery, disrupting the flow of training.

• We provide you with models.

• You will not only learn theory but also get hands-on experience by tattooing real-life models (on the last 2 days) that we provide for you. They are our clients who volunteer to be tattooed by somebody who is learning, under full supervision and guidance of your instructor. If applicable, you can also bring your own models.

• We have ongoing classes every week. Therefore, there is no set schedule. Our studio is open 7 days a week, and so is our school.

• Although we recommend Tuesday to Sunday of the week for the 6-day training, we stand by our policy of accommodating students based on their availability if circumstances allow. WE WILL CREATE A SPECIAL CLASS for you, may it be on weekends or a day or two during the week. We will make sure you get the same number of hours of training, as you would if you took the regular class of Tuesday to Sunday.

• Our classes are held in an actual studio environment. This will help you see how a studio operates, and you will get to shadow your instructor at least once when he tattoos a client as part of the training process.

• We keep our classes small. We are comfortable with 2 students per class, but no more than 4, for one-on-one training.

• You get to do at least 4 small tattoos.

• You will get one free tattoo for yourself, a friend, or a relative.

• You will get pointers and guidance on how to start your own business.

• At the end of your 6-day training, you will receive a proof of training documentation and a letter of confirmation.
