Housing The Best Western in Mariposa has offered a special rate for my students. You will need to call them directly at 209-966-7545. Be sure to let them know you are one of my massage students. On a limited basis, tents are available for those who wish to camp on the school property at no charge.

Food A continental style breakfast is provided at the hotel. Everything in town is within walking distance from the school. You will be able to buy a large variety of food from the town's restaurants or stores at about $18-$20 a day. Snacks, lunch, and dinner are not provided.

Here's a great idea! Many students pre sell gift certificates for massages at a bargain price ($100 for 10 massages) to get the tuition needed for class. Many of these pre-paid people become permanent clients of yours after the initial investment is "massaged" off!
