Classes are held in fully heated, comfortable training rooms at the center. Groups are kept small so every student receives direct, individual guidance from the instructor. Each course begins with essential theory, hygiene, and client safety before progressing to practice on mannequins and finally real live models under close supervision. At the end, your practical work is formally evaluated and you receive an official certificate.
