We Provide You with Models
Towards the end of the program, you get to do 4 tattoos on real-life models, fully supervised, with your instructor always prepared to offer you constructive advice. Our tattoo school will provide the models to you. However, if you prefer to bring your own models, you are welcome to do so. Under the guidance of your tattoo training instructors, you will greatly enhance your tattoo making skills. At the end of the program, you will be confident to do small tattoos safely.
Why Choose Us?
At our tattoo school in Canada, the classes are held in a proper studio setting. So, you get a hands-on experience on how to go about the proper setup and tear down with experienced artists. You get to shadow at least one tattoo that is performed by your instructor on a client as part of your training process. You also get intensive one-on-one training, as we only take 2 students at a time, 4 at the most, and you will be fully supervised so that you get full attention.
Reasons Why Students Come to Our Tattoo School in Canada
Given below are the reasons why students choose us:
17
-
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.
