Our Instructors

The Instructors: Not Just Teachers. Mentors with Mission.

Here at John Kind Studios, we don’t believe in “perfect professionals” standing at the front of the room. Your instructors are real-world creatives, handpicked not just for their talent, but for their heart, patience, and lived experience.

They’ve made mistakes, taken chances, and poured hours into learning their craft. Many come from backgrounds like yours — places where creative outlets weren’t accessible, or support systems were hard to find. Some are self-taught. Some have studio pedigrees. But all of them are here to meet you where you are and push you to go further.

What You Can Expect:

• Instructors who explain, not just direct

• Guidance in your own learning style

• Encouragement rooted in growth, not ego

• Support across technical, creative, and mindset hurdles

• Feedback that builds, not tears down

• Accountability with care

This is a mentorship-style education rooted in collaboration. We’re not just training you to use a camera or a mic — we’re training you to lead projects, own your vision, and stand on what you’ve built.
