WHY CHOOSE THIS COURSE?

This masterclass focuses on the details that separate average work from premium salon results.

You will learn how to create stronger structures, improve retention, perfect your Russian
Manicure technique, and understand exactly why products perform differently on different nail types.

Training is delivered in small groups or personalised sessions, ensuring individual support,
detailed feedback, and hands-on guidance throughout the day.

The goal is not simply to teach another technique, but to help you become a more confident,
knowledgeable, and technically skilled nail professional.

STUDENT REVIEWS

Recommendations from our students

Absolutely loved the pedicure masterclass with pododiscs at Soul Beauty and Training Academy 🦶 Gosia is very professional and explains everything in a clear and detailed way. I learned so many useful techniques and tips that I straight away used in my work. I never felt rushed or afraid to ask questions.
The atmosphere was really friendly which made the whole experience even better. Gosia genuinely cares about her students and wants everyone to leave feeling confident.
What I also really appreciated is that the support doesn’t end after the course. You can always ask questions, get advice, and continue learning even after the training.
One of the best trainings I’ve attended and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to improve their skills.🫶🏻

I recently completed 1:1 nail training with Gosia at Soul beauty & Training and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She is incredibly knowledgeable and explained everything in a clear, supportive way, which made the whole day both enjoyable and valuable. I’m newly qualified in nails and chose to do the Russian manicure/BIAB/hard gel masterclass with Gosia.

The training was very well organised, and I really appreciated the 1:1 format, it made such a difference to my learning. Gosia also prepared a lovely lunch for me and my mum, who kindly modelled for me on the day. She made sure my mum was comfortable and well looked after throughout, which meant a lot.

I was able to take photos of anything I needed for future reference, and Gosia followed up by sending links to all the products and tools we used. She answered every question I had with patience and detail, and even set up a WhatsApp chat so I can reach out if I need support going forward.

Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I would highly recommend Gosia to anyone looking for professional, thorough, and genuinely supportive nail training.

I am absolutely thrilled that I chose Soul Beauty & Training Academy for my Basic Gel Polish course! This place is truly excellent, and I would highly recommend it to anyone, especially those who are new to the field.
Gosia, was simply amazing. I felt quite nervous at the beginning because gel polish was completely new to me, but as soon as Gosia started to explain and demonstrate the techniques, all my stress disappeared. Her simple, clear instructions and guidance were exactly what I needed to feel confident, and successfully get through the training.
I am so grateful to Gosia for sharing her knowledge and making the learning process so enjoyable. If you're looking for professional, supportive, and effective training, choose Soul Beauty & Training Academy—you won't regret it! ❤️❤️❤️
