Your teacher

Hi, I’m Yana

I’m the nail artist behind Yani Studios. I built this course around what really matters at the desk: the theory that keeps nails healthy, the hygiene that keeps clients safe, and the techniques that make a set last.

I teach the way I work: carefully, neatly and with a lot of attention to detail. Not everything will work the first time, and that’s fine. Practise with care and we’ll get you there.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need any experience?

No. The course starts from the basics (nail structure, hygiene and materials) and then moves on to technique.

How long can I access the course?

Forever. Your course materials don’t expire, even after your chat time with Yana ends.

When do my 30 days with Yana start?

When you press “Start my 30 days with Yana” on your page. If you don’t, they start automatically 30 days after you buy. Day 1 is the day you press Start, or the day they start automatically, and your chat ends at 8:00pm Jamaica time on day 30. For example: Buy on 1 March and don’t press Start: your 30 days start automatically on 31 March (day 1) and end at 8:00pm on 29 April.

When does Yana reply?

Monday to Saturday, 10:00am to 8:00pm Jamaica time. Messages sent outside these hours are answered on the next working day.

How do the practice days work?

The Yani Studios Experience includes two one-on-one practice days with Yana at the studio. After you buy, message Yana on WhatsApp to agree your dates. Use them within 3 months of buying.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. Study Solo → Study with Yana costs US$149. Study with Yana → Yani Studios Experience costs US$579. Study Solo → Yani Studios Experience costs US$729. Choosing the option you want at the start always costs less.

How do I pay?

By card, on NCB’s secure payment page. Your card details never touch our website.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, within 48 hours of your payment being confirmed, if you haven’t opened any part of the course or started your chat time. See the refund policy for practice days and other cases.
