"Connecting with other artists at a similar point in their journey was the most amazing thing I could have imagined for myself. I have been battling the “hustle”, productive, capitalistic American mindset for my entire adult life, and that has led me to repeatedly turn away from creating. I feel so empowered by this class, these people, and this instructor, Chloé. I’m more inspired and ready than ever to dive head first into my creativity, which has always been my favorite part of myself. Because of this class, I quit my job and am taking the plunge into my secret (not so secret anymore) dream of tattooing! Cannot thank you, Chloé, enough."

Chloé is an amazing resource both for sharing technical information and gaining access to a supportive and engaged community of artists. The course meets artists where they are and effectively provides tools to help them move forward on their journeys. As an artist, Chloé is establishing a new norm for what it means to operate in the tattoo industry — one that is supportive, respectful, inclusive, and welcoming. All these values shine through clearly in the work she does with the MTC. She makes a concerted effort to be available to all students and helps them build their practice according to each of their specific and differing needs. For me personally, this course helped establish stringent modern safety and sanitation standards to ensure the health and well-being of my clients, it provided reference-able and easy to digest technical information including video how-to, supply lists, business development tools, and Power Points, and most importantly, allowed me to access a group of artists that normalized going about the tattoo learning process in a safe, albeit non-traditional way. Beyond this, I feel as though there was an intangible benefit to being a member of this really special community that has given me a huge boost in morale and encouraged me to advance my tattoo business to the professional level. After the course, artists are still very much engaged in one another lives and careers, which I think stands as a testament to the community building Chloé facilitated with us. This being a non-traditional learning path, there is an important degree of personal responsibility and self-motivation required to segue participation in the MTC into a tattooing career, however, leaving the course, I felt prepared to independently undertake the next steps. I would highly recommend this course to anyone forging their path towards being an inclusive, modern, and professional tattoo artist.

"This class helped me grow my confidence in my ability to positively affect both others and myself through tattooing. I now feel equipped to start a strong practice routine and have the skills to set up my studio once I feel ready to tattoo on skin! Chloé is kind, passionate, and educated and attracts a wonderful community of artists and collaborators."

"I think the most impactful part of this course was finding a community of likeminded creatives who all are passionate to learn about tattooing and all have similar experiences with the barrier of entry within the industry. I was floored by the talent and the genuine connections we were making in such a short amount of time and was so inspired by the dedication of all of the other students. Simply being a part of the collective was incredibly impactful and meaningful."
