The Story Behind the School

After two decades working in bars across Spain and the U.S., Carlos got tired of seeing bartending treated like a temporary job instead of a respected craft.

He created J Martini Bartending School to change that. Offering hands-on, professional training that gives beginners the skills and confidence to work behind any bar (or simply impress their guests at home).

We’re not your average

Your Questions Answered - Everything About Bartending School!

How long are the classes, and what’s the schedule like?

We know everyone’s schedule looks different, so we built two flexible options that deliver the same high-quality training:

1. Intensive Course

8 hours a day for 2 days

Perfect if you want to fast-track your skills and get certified over a single weekend or a couple of weekdays.

2. Standard Course

4 weeks, 4 hours per week

Learn at a slower pace with options for morning or afternoon sessions, available on multiple days throughout the week.

Both paths give you the same expert instruction, hands-on experience, and access to real-world bartending opportunities, it just depends on how fast you want to go.
