The Tattoo Industry is built on gatekeeping and egos rather than talent and ambition. It's time to burn down this broken system and build something beautiful from the ashes. A creative industry based on creativity, where you don't need permission to succeed. Are you in?
Why It Works
Tattoo artistry is not natural talent, it is a skill developed over time. This system takes a unique approach, providing the theory and then drills created specifically to lock each technique into muscle memory. The structured curriculum then gradually builds and refines on these techniques ensuring students learn in the correct order.
Buy using the Learn, Drill, Repeat mantra students progress their abilities at an expedited rate.
The Fundamentals of Tattooing course focuses on the core principles, valuing the perfection of basics before moving to full tattoo designs. Learning in the correct order at the start of a students journey is vitally important to their long term growth.
Who It's For
The Fundamentals of Tattooing is for those who want to learn correctly. This is not a course for anyone who is considering the purchase of a tattoo machine and immediately & unsafely completing tattoos on people.
It is for those who care deeply about art and value creativity above tradition. For those who are cast aside by the industry. For those who want to make a change.
If you are tired of being overlooked, ignored by artists you seek apprenticeships from - you are in the right place.
Join our community and become part of the revolution sweeping across the tattoo industry.
The Ethics of Teaching
Although this course is at the forefront of leading disruptive change within the tattoo industry, it does not promote unsafe or unhygienic tattooing by those new & inexperienced.
The goal of this system is to enable anyone passionate about learning this is incredible art form to do so. But they must do so safely. Completing tattoos early on in student's journeys is strictly forbidden, any students found to be doing so will be removed from the course.
This movement isn’t about shortcuts.
It’s about access with responsibility.
Permanently scarring potential customers at the start of your journey is the quickest way to end your career. Don't do it.
