COURSES

Since September 2003, we have been proudly offering the Nuts and Bolts ProGrow Education Program.   This is a unique, systematic approach for teaching health and beauty professionals how to manage a fulfilling, profitable, and growing service business.  We are committed to preparing our students not only in the technical side of their fields, but in the business side as well, in order to ensure their professional success.  Read more about the unique advantages of this exclusive program by clicking on the link above or the logo at left.

Our courses are designed with your success in mind. Because we are Pivot Point Member Colleges, it means our Cosmetology program uses the most technologically advanced methods — like interactive laser disks — and the internationally recognized Pivot Point Scientific Approach.

Using only the finest ingredients available, all products are non-comedogenic and contain no occlusive mineral oil or lanolin, no irritating artificial colors or fragrance, and no drying S.D. alcohol or formaldehyde.

Our Manicuring program covers everything you need to be a professional in this industry. From tips, to acrylic, to wrap techniques, you'll be well prepared for the salon.

In order to offer our students the full range of programs required by today's top salons and day spas, we offer several Massage and Bodywork courses, including Massage Therapy, Massage Technician, Holistic Health Practitioner and an Esthetician/Massage Technician combination course. Due to lifestyle diseases, stress, and the desire to live rich and productive lives, people are turning to wellness programs. Instead of thinking of health as the absence of disease, people are preventing disease while improving their overall vitality and well-being. This is evidenced by the increase in weight-loss programs, fitness centers, aerobic exercise classes, spas, health-food stores and a holistic health consciousness. Massage therapy is an effective method used to support general health and wellness. It helps to integrate body and mind, relax the musculo-skeletal system, increase body awareness and promote an experience of well-being.
