I first saw body piercing in the early nineties at the rock and Bike Festival and was fascinated by it...I started having piercings myself...in the late 90's I opened a "new age" shop and was asked why I didn't stock body jewellery, I started to stock it and was then asked "where can I get pierced" so decided to open a piercing studio. The idea was to employ a body piercer not to do the piercing myself! However body piercers were few and far between then and so I made the decision to go on a piercing course myself so that I could cover the piercer when we found one....we never did find one and I became a body piercer!!! I started in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leics and moved to Swadlincote, Derbys. over 11 years ago....Body Piercing by Lynn @ Labyrinth. After running a succesful piercing studio for over 11 years I decided 5 years ago to start a training school in order to "sell" people my 11 years experience and teach them to pierce properly. I try to make the courses laid back and enjoyable so the week with us is fun and exciting....I have not had anyone on the course yet that did not enjoy it...I love piercing and want you to love it too!

On the first day of the course the first hour is usually a "meet and greet", I ask you a little bit about you and why you want to pierce and I tell you a little bit about me and why I became a body piercer....It just gets us to know each other a little better, the course is very friendly and not in any way like a training course...
