What is Norvell University? It's the #1 Professional Spray Tanning Certification Program in the world offered by the #1 Manufacturer of Sunless Solutions in the World: Norvell Sunless. NU offer 3 ways for aspiring spray tan artists to train: 1) online; 2) in a live classroom; or 3) at a Certified Academy Training Location. The Body Bar Sunless Spa & Suites is a certified academy location and the owner, Katie Ramsey, is a Norvell Brand Specialist.
Katie Ramsey has been in the sunless industry for 9 years. She acquired her basic sunless training through Norvell University online. She then traveled to Seattle, Washington, where she earned her Master Certification at a Live NU Class in 2016. At that class she earned an opportunity to travel and work alongside the Norvell Training Team and was eventually hired on as an independent contractor and Brand Specialist for Norvell Sunless.
As a Brand Specialist, Katie has the opportunity to test and sample products and equipment before they are brought to market for the public to purchase. She gives input and feedback and helps the Norvell team promote the launch of those products. She also has the privilege of representing the brand at trade shows, offering spray tan demonstrations on the showroom floor, and offering training to those who are looking to join the sunless industry. She is also an approved reseller of solutions and equipment.
Katie owns and operates two salons. She first opened the Body Bar Sunless Spa & Suites in 2018 after having operated a mobile business for a little over 3 years. She most recently opened a franchise UV tanning salon, Tan Republic Brentwood; a 14-room salon with a staff of 6 salon specialists.
When you sign up to train with Katie, you will receive the online training course for FREE ($149 value) and hands-on training, in-person, with Katie at the Body Bar Salon. Depending on the amount of time you would like to spend training, you will be provided with one, or multiple models, and all of the equipment and supplies needed to spray tan your model. Katie will cover everything from a proper client consultation to your equipment set up, and proper aftercare instructions for your customer's spray tan. The online course should be completed prior to hands-on training to answer basic questions and to maximize your in-person training session.
A minimum one-hour hands-on training session is $249 which includes one model. Each additional 30-minute session is $75 and includes an additional model. You also receive the NU online training course for FREE ($149 value).
Visit the Norvell University website and complete the form. Under "Certified NU Academy Sites", choose "Brentwood/NorCal" as your preferred academy location. Norvell will notify Katie of your request for training, and she will reach out with scheduling and payment information.
Once you have booked your hands-on training session with Katie, all monies are non-refundable. Given the time it takes out of her salon schedule and the time it takes away from the lives of our models, canceling is not allowed. If something happens that warrants a request to reschedule, that is solely up to Katie's discretion as to whether or not it will be permitted. Our Academy Trainers are business owners first and foremost. While our trainers are all very passionate about educating others, their businesses are their livelihood. Please keep that in mind when scheduling your training session.
