About Meet the Mentors
Our mentors are not just teachers. They are practicing artists, WorldSkills trainers, and industry veterans who have trained extensively in Mexico and beyond. You get personalized attention in every session, where we help you translate your passion into a real skill, whether you are picking up your first pair of shears or refining your professional technique.
At IFD, our philosophy is simple. We do not believe in competing. We believe in helping you bloom. Our team, led by founder Seema Jhaveri, brings a collective 14 years of experience to the table, ensuring you receive high-quality training right here in India.
Why Learn With Us?
- International Standards: Our curriculum is built on international benchmarks, with direct affiliations to IMTF Mexico. You are learning techniques that are recognized globally.
