OUR MISSION

What Makes W.O.T.S Different?

GRADUATE READY-TO-WORK



The World’s Only Tattoo School was originally established by Dr. Bill Pogue, in 1968, as the world's FIRST school to offer a creative new way to learn how to tattoo. We are truly pioneers in the new standard for tattoo training. Year after year, The World’s Only Tattoo School remains the ORIGINAL & the BEST, combining traditional and modern techniques. We ensure each student walks away with enough equipment to begin making money graduation day! With our new open floor plan, you can create your own schedule to get live practice with real tattos and even private training.  You also can refresh your training in any future workshops! 


Many professional tattoo artists will tell beginners that the only way to become a professional artist is through a 2-year apprenticeship. This idea is outdated and impractical in today’s tattoo industry. 

Our instructors are highly experienced artists and proficiently educated trainers. They are skilled in neuro-linguistic programming, a state of the art power training method, which combines learning with performance.

The World’s Only Tattoo School is also family owned and operated. The atmosphere in our classroom is professional, fun & welcoming. We hope to welcome you into our tattoo family!
