Full Package — Basic Allround + Designing

The Course

What this course is

The Full Package combines the two foundation courses: five Mondays of practical tattoo training and one Monday dedicated to designing for skin. You choose a starting date for each course. The matching combinations are suggested at registration: the January intake with the February designing day, or the June intake with the July designing day. You hold a place in both sessions. The package is €4,000 excluding VAT instead of €4,200, a saving of €200.
