TGB Academy

I had the pleasure of attending Nat's 3 day TGB course back in Nov/Dec last year. I left with the confidence to practice on friends & family whilst building up my portfolio. I really appreciated all the guidance Nat gave us. The course covered much more than I expected like tips and tricks on how to take photos and also advice on your social media/ branding. I returned to her in the new year for e-file training (what a life saver that is!)

I did this as part of the full gel bottle course. Ewa was absolutely brilliant, she taught us so many great ways of doing things that just made it click! She is friendly and so knowledgeable and made us all feel so comfortable. I had some previous experience of doing gel nails but this course is a game changer!! Highly recommend to anyone just starting out or someone wanting to improve their skills.

If you want to learn perfect Gel Polish application then Beckie is your girl! As someone who was already quite pleased with her polish application, I couldn’t believe how much I took away from this course. I can now get right up to my cuticles and sidewalls without flooding; such a smooth finish that my nails look like mirrors!! And I only have Beckie to thank for that. If you’re uhmming and ahhing about doing this course - go with your gut and get on it! I promise you won’t regret it whether you’re a beginner or a pro. Thank you Beckie - you’re a boss nail artists & an even more amazing teacher!

A real treat training with Natalie, Straight away I knew I was in good hands. Fantastic teacher, really easy to listen to and learn from, amazing knowledge on the products and the industry felt like I left knowing so much more than what I'd signed up for very pleased with the course, I've signed up for another two! Natalie is always happy to answer any questions or share tips during and after the course which I have found really helpful too. All round very happy with everything, highly recommended. Mind blown to be able to have watched her work in person too it really is a beautiful sight.

Cecile is an amazing instructor, who explains (and demonstrates) everything so clearly. I absolutely loved the whole of the 3 day course, would highly recommend to everyone and anyone. The whole atmosphere of the TGB NZ training & distribution centre in Papamoa is amazing. Everyone was so friendly, the facilities were great, and as for the food?!?! Unbelievably good. Cecile & Michanne, please do some other courses so I can come back!! You ladies are amazing x

Beckie was absolutely amazing and I loved doing the course with her. She was so welcoming and friendly when we all first started, and made us all feel comfortable. She goes above and beyond to help you and gives you extra tips and tricks along the way. She even bought us a platter of food full of pastry to nibble on throughout the course which was a nice surprise. Lastly the building itself is also a lovely place to learn, with big open windows that let lots of natural light in, its big and it doesnt feel cramped or like you're in a classroom. Would 100% recommend beckie to everyone!

I just completed the full gel bottle course and it was incredible. Ewa is an amazing teacher who has great teaching strategies. Ewa really knows everything about the gel bottle and you can tell she is passionate about the brand and educating every student that comes though the door. Ewa is patient, knowledgeable and really knows the best tips and tricks to creat the perfect set of nails. I was really impressed at how some of the girls on the course (who have never done nails before) managed to creat beautiful nails in a matter of hours. I feel so excited to bring my new skills to my current clients and new ones in the future. Ewa has really inspired me to become the best nail tech I can be. Thank you Ewa, for being the best educator!
