One may learn how to do oriental massage in the U.S. at the Arizona Institute of Thai and Oriental Massage. A few of the instructors are known to be the very first to teach this type of massage in the U.S.
the oriental population of the US is about 2billion.
Nearly every major city in the US has dance studios which focus on oriental dance. Belly dancing can actually be learned online through videos as well. Three websites providing these instructional videos and DVDs are Learn to Belly Dance, Free Belly Dance Classes, and Belly Dance Boulevard.
To become a massage therapist one must complete a training program to get the right qualification. One must enroll with a massage school and many US states require over 500 hours training.
The most commonly performed massage is called Swedish, though it is known as American massage outside of the US.
At least in the US, it is generally considered inappropriate, as Oriental should only refer to objects and not people. (Oriental rugs, for example.)
It depends on where you are. Massage can be as close by as next door, if you live in Thailand. Or it can be in a spa or massage establishment, as in the US. The best way to find a place to get a massage is to look in the phone book. Look under massage therapy and you will find a listing of massage professionals in your area. If you are in the US, it is very likely that the state will require that they also include their license number. That assures that you will be getting a professional massage and not something else.
In the US genital and breast massage is not acceptable.
Rates for a one hour massage vary throughout the US. In general, the current going average is $60 per hour. Please remember that a one hour massage requires about one hour of prep work and post session follow up work, so a one hour massage really takes two hours. If you are working for someone else, they will do this for you. So, in effect, you are only making about $30 an hour.
Some of the companies selling antique oriental furniture in the USA are: Silk Road Collection and Green Tea Design. Antique oriental furniture can also be purchased online from the "orientalfurniture" website.
One can learn to create and craft from different courses available throughout the US. There are multiple crafting schools and classes to take and learn from.
