Reserve your spot
The Art of Structure is a free two-day professional nail workshop held September 20 and 21, 2026 in Orlando, Florida. Day 1 covers gel foundations including product amount, layering, cure times, apex placement and prep. Day 2 answers advanced problems such as oily nail beds, refill bulk and safe removal, and includes the first public look at PROSHIELD 2.0 BioRepair Foundation. Three SNS Educators teach both days. Admission is free. Register in advance so a seat and a gift bag are prepared for you.
For nail techs, salon owners and studio artists — whether you're new to gel, switching from acrylic, or already good but stuck on the same few cases. Salon owners are welcome to bring the whole team.
Sound Familiar?
If Even One of These Is You
These two days were built for exactly this.
The Program
Two Days, Two Different Rooms
Come to one day or both. There is no charge either way.
The Basics
Your sets shouldn't lift, look bulky, or need constant correction.
For techs who are new, techs switching from acrylic, and anyone whose foundation was never taught properly.
- How much gel is actually enough
- How many layers, and where they go thick or thin
- Cure times for the lamp you already own
- Apex placement that stops breakage
- Prep that survives the first three days
- Dual form pressure order — no air pockets, no gaps
- Salon-ready Ombré and Pink & White
The Answers
Advanced gels shouldn't mean more filing or longer appointments.
For techs who already work well, but keep hitting the same walls. Bring your questions — send them ahead when you register.
- Oily nail beds and bitten nails that won't hold
- Refills that don't build up bulk
- Removal that doesn't thin the natural nail
- One corner lifted — patch it or take it all off?
- Layering builder under cat eye and chrome
- What to switch to when you need more than 3mm
- What to charge so you're not working for free
PROSHIELD 2.0
BioRepair Foundation
For years, setting a tip meant glue. Glue holds — but it holds onto the natural nail too.
Apply a few thin layers of BioRepair Foundation on the natural nail
Place the Soft Gel Tip on top
Hold firmly for 10 SECONDS
Live demo at 2:00 PM, both days. You'll try it on your own hand. This is the first time it has been shown to techs anywhere.
