significant other and i are interested in taking massage classes. does anyone know of a good place to learn, in english? nothing too fancy, just basic movements that we can then practice on each other. something like you can get from the old ladies on a beach in thailand...don't even know what that technique is called...
anyway, any help (name, phone, etc) gratefully received.

You can go for a week-long Thai massage program in Thailand-- classes conducted in English. THe best schools for that are all in Chiangmai and not Bangkok. THe classes run for 30 hours (5 days * 6 hours day) to get a certificate. But if you just want to learn in a more casual manner, you can make arrangements for semi-private instruction with one of the staff and they will be happy to accomodate you. You can also opt for a 2 day foot-massage course as well if you care short on time. The other option would be to buy some Massage books at PageOne or VCDs (sold in Yue-Hwa Dept Store in Jordan-- but nearly all in Chinese). Let me know if you find any local places that teach foot massage in English as I would be intereted in learning.
