New courses are added regularly depending on demand. If you’re interested in a course not listed above please contact me.
Some courses require prior training, meaning not all options will be suitable depending on your experience to date.
If you are a complete beginner, I recommend starting with the following progression:
1. Gel Polish & Electric File Manicure
2. Advanced Gel Polish (BIAB)
3. Basic Gel Extensions on Tips
4. Upskill: Gel Extensions on Forms
5. Nail Art: Begin (Level 1)
6. Nail Art: Refine (Level 2)
7. Various upskilling courses in areas of your choice
For those who already have experience, courses can be selected individually to refine specific techniques and focus on areas you would like to improve. However, prior certified training is required for certain courses — hands-on experience alone may not be sufficient to progress to more advanced levels.
If you’re unsure which course is right for you, feel free to get in touch — I’ll be happy to guide you in choosing the most suitable option for your level and goals.
Group Courses
Each month, I offer a selection of group courses tailored to both beginners and experienced nail technicians.
Training is delivered in a focused, supportive environment, with a carefully controlled number of students in each group to ensure individual attention — allowing every student to gain the knowledge, confidence, and hands-on experience needed to progress within the industry.
You can view the most up-to-date course schedule below.

Courses take place in Macroom, Co. Cork.
Individual Courses
For those looking for a more personalised experience, I offer individual training sessions.
These are ideal if you would like to upskill in specific areas or prefer one-to-one attention throughout the entire course. Individual courses are tailored to your needs, allowing for a more in-depth and focused learning experience.
Dates are arranged outside of my regular course schedule.
To book, please visit the “Book Now” section and then contact me to arrange a suitable date.

I also offer in-salon training, where I come directly to your business to train your team.
This option is ideal for salon owners who want to upskill their staff, improve service standards, and ensure consistency across their team.
Training can be tailored to suit your salon’s specific needs and goals.

No matter which course type you choose, you can be confident in receiving a high standard of professional education.
