I had the opportunity to take Yakov's seminar in Berlin. Over the years I have completed several facial massage and sculpting trainings, and this method changed how I work with every client. It is the gold standard in facial sculpting education.
Regina QueirozFacialist, Los Angeles, United States
I am absolutely thrilled with the seminar and the training as a whole. It is a powerful, profound and deeply energising experience. You learn to work with clients in a completely different way.
Aljona DombrovskaUnited Kingdom
The video lessons are exceptionally clear and the results are transformative. Completing the videocourse with Yakov has been a wonderful experience.
AggelikiGreece
I first became an online student in 2023, then attended the first ever SFL seminar in Thailand in 2024 to become a licensed practitioner. It is more than just techniques.
Kamonrath Kh.Bangkok, Thailand
Four days that truly transformed me. In four days I grew not only as a professional but as a person, and my hands learned a language they did not have before.
Maryna BebawyUnited States
I completed both Level 1 and Level 2. After Level 1 I knew immediately that I had to continue, because of the atmosphere, the depth and the way everything is explained.
Juljetta AslanovaGermany
I was amazed how thorough the videos were, showing every move from different angles so you can actually understand them. The online course is great.
