Body Piercing Training Course

Founder and Proprietor of Skinart Training The Journey Begins... I embarked on my career in the body art industry under the tutelage of master tattoo artist, Dave Edwards. I was privileged to learn every facet of the craft from him. Establishing a 22-Store Franchise... The year 2000 marked the opening of our first store in Durban, South Africa. As our business grew, we set up unique stores, including an innovative tattoo parlor in an African hut, solidifying our standing as a national brand. The Necessity of Tattoo Training... By 2001, southern Africa's limited tattoo artist population prompted us to train young enthusiasts. This led to the creation of the world's first male and female Zulu and Xhosa tattoo artists. Our focus remained on producing high-quality tattoos and ensuring mastery of diverse styles. Refining our Curriculum... In 2003, we started training other artists, developing a 36-step process over three months. We later streamlined this to a 14-day period and finally to a 5-day program with the advent of practice skin training. Over the years, we have guided over 2000 students, many of whom are now award-winning artists in over 30 countries. We continue to foster talent in the body art industry.
