Our Teaching Philosophy
We don't believe in cookie-cutter approaches. Every student learns differently, and every hand tells a unique story. Our methodology adapts to you while maintaining the rigorous standards that separate professionals from hobbyists.

1 Hands-On Mastery First
You'll spend 70% of your time with tools in hand. We believe muscle memory and intuition develop through practice, not just observation. Theory comes after you understand how techniques actually feel.

Starting in month three, you'll work with actual clients under close supervision. Nothing prepares you for professional work like professional work—with safety nets in place.
