Massage at special events

2009-06-06T22:48:19Z

Does anyone know what the requirements are for performing massage at special events/festivals that are not within the jurisdiction that issued your business license?
Especially as this pertains to crossing into a jurisdiction that has more stringent requirements that the 'home' jurisdiction - within the great state of California and it's confusing land of no state issued business license.

Is a special permit/business license required, or would the one issued by the 'home' jurisdiction be applicable.
Thanks

massage therapist and others needed for amazing space in the forest...

2009-04-08T18:37:43Z

Hello!

We are a budding ecovillage in the highlands of Mexico.

We are looking for some longer term volunteers to live here in exchange for the work they do.
We need: Kitchen manager, yoga instructor, massage therapist, ecological building instructor, domestic help, and teachers of Spanish and English.
Our regular volunteers pay a fee to work here, but for these positions we can make other arrangements. We are also open to new residents with compatible values.

After years of work, this forest serves as a retreat space for artists, performers, writers, and other creative and friendly people. It is called the "Bosque Village". Bosque means forest in Spanish.

This place is becoming an ongoing small festival as well as a growing community.

We have a constant stream of volunteers and amazing visitors! Some people come through when they are between jobs, traveling, or to live here for a time and telecommute. Some of our visitors are visiting many communities looking for one to live in.

WEB PAGE: http://bosquevillage.com
NEXT LITTLE FESTIVAL: http://jobutsu.com/cumbreyah

You can also add the Bosque as friends on social networking sites:

See you in Mexico!

massaging people on drugs

2008-11-09T05:24:34Z

if pain suppressants are contra indicated, what about party drugs.

sure, if someone is obviously wigged out, it's contra. what if they seem fine and lie to you and are on lots of shrooms or acid. if they like deep pressure and can't feel the sensations cause they are too high. maybe, keep it light regardless. what about emotionnal release, do party drugs suppress them, enhace them or just make it all "a little different"?

i figure that "we'll just know" that something is just not right and that some people i will just simply refuse.
but.
i am knew to festival massage and was wondering if the experienced bodyworkers of this tribe could bring some insight and anecdotes to this subject.

love and light

Bodywork @ Festivals, personal experiences & recomendations

2008-10-15T18:04:03Z

I would love to hear about the festivals people did bodywork at, how it worked & your experiences.

This past weekend, I did bodywork at Shakori Hills Grassroots Festival in Silk Hope, North Carolina. Its in the "triangle" area, near Chapel Hill & Greensboro. I received a free ticket & parking pass in exchange for working a minimum for 4 hours a day for 3 days & giving a 25% cut of my earnings to Shakori. They had a beautiful space for us to be, nestled in the trees but next to main traffic areas so we had visibility. They provided 2 tents, one was first come, first server to do work in & the other was for info. Other therapists brought their own tents. The music & people were wonderful, camping was fun, great food, a focus on sustainability & eco friendliness. Overall a great time.

This festival happens twice a year, spring & fall. I would recommend it and look forward to going next year!

World Rainbow Family Gatherings - bodywork space

2008-09-15T04:57:12Z

Rainbow Gatherings are now worldwide. Link up to photos in my profile for images of my Thai Yoga Massage Workshop at the recent Thailand Rainbow gathering. At almost all Rainbow Gatherings, there'll be a YogaCamp Healing Arts Space... and here you'll teach/learn/share/give/receive bodywork in other traditions than your own. Here you'll hook up with other practicioners for some really satisfying massage exchanges: Swedish, Shia-tzu, Ayurvedic, Lomi, etcetera. However, before attending a Rainbow Gathering, know that these are free and non-commercial... so you go to share good energy without expectation of money gain. With all of the great music, healthy clean food, and wonderful open smiling people,... it's worth it! See you in five minutes, .....briggi!

tables for festival massage (Playa furniture?) Any suggestions?

2008-06-18T13:30:51Z

Hi, I have always brought my actual massage table to events for massage, but one broke last year, and I am planning on trippling my days at festivals this summer.

I want something that is easy to carry, durable, and that I don't have to care about.

I was thinking about playa furniture. Has anyone made a table this way . .. and did you trust it? I would want to be able to use an actual headrest. So a 2x4 screwed to one end makes sense, then just some cushions.

Right now I have tried a dozen spellings and combinations, and can't even find plans for a couch online.

Thanks

Hi! (newbie with a question)

2007-07-04T17:06:56Z

I just joined this tribe because my boyfriend and I are planning to do a festival circuit next year. What do you do about permits or licensing requirements. Obviously, you can't get a license in every state you travel to. Are festivals exempt in some cases, or do you just do it under the table, so to speak?

Thanks!

2007-03-27T06:28:59Z

Hello my peop's
I've been offered a 2 day gig with a well known band. I live in Chicago, the gig is in Toronto. It's not a show, so no crew people.
I don't how many massages will be expected. I just accepted the job, then the manager asked how money do i want for 2 days.
Where do I go from here? I don't know the going rate for such things. Do i ask how many people and charge per massage? If so, How much for say 7 people? it's table work, but I'm guessing similar to back stage where I might give the same person a few mini sessions.
Or do I give a flat rate for my time?
Please, any insight would so so welcomed and appreciated!!
also interested to know If any of you have gone on tour with a band or festival and want to share your experiances/thoughts,

Bay Area Festivals

2006-06-27T07:51:27Z

Who here regularly works at festivals? Especially around the Bay Area and in Northern California. How do you find the festivals you want to work at?

Do you set up space formally by renting a booth, informally by having someone inside the festival set you up with a space to work? Do you work with a chair, table, mat? Have you ever been asked to provide proof of certification or been told you need to be licensed for the county or city that the festival is in?

Thanks!

New here!

2006-05-21T21:50:53Z

Hello everyone! My name is Mathew and I am a CMT out of Boston, MA. I am a new member in this tribe and have yet to venture out in the world of festival massage. I love music and this is something that I might wantto do in the near future. One quick question. What does one do in dealing with the health department of a town that he/she would be doing massage in at a festival?

Peace, Love and Light,

Mathew

2006-04-19T07:43:12Z

I have worked with both, but wonder what you find most enjoyable, over time, for a long day or night of work.

Do you have a preference?
Why?

Ren Faires

2006-03-08T16:23:02Z

Hi all...My name is Nikki. My husband and I are from Michigan and have just recently become certified massage therapists. We are wanting to put together a promo package for the huge Ren Faire that comes through here yearly, and want it to look spectacular. We know that we have to do the basics....Resume, a few pictures....We're wondering if anyone else out there has any outstanding ideas for other things that we could add to our package to get this gig....Any suggestions would be appreciated as the Michigan Faire is pretty tough.....Thanks a bunch in advance!!!

Massage student curious about how massaging at festivals

2006-01-28T20:26:56Z

I have recently just started a 3000 hr program in massage therapy. I always thought it would be great to be able to go to shambahlah or similar festivals and just set up a table. After having seen some postings on this tribe it got me excited! If any one could either post something about how they get jobs, what it's like, how often they get to practice and so on that would be great! or email me at spuzzi_85@hotmail.com thanks sonya

New Year's Eve Massage?

2005-11-15T06:31:41Z

I am working with a couple big productions for New Year's Eve in San Francisco, and people are asking me about providing massage as well. Is anybody looking for work doing massage on New Year's Eve? I will be busy managing a stage and won't be doing massage, but I may be able to set up my dome as a crew chill space backstage and bring in a few therapists. It will probably be a 9pm until 6am type situation. Anybody else working in other parts that night?

Advice needed: how to approach festival organizers

2005-06-20T20:33:58Z

Hi there! I have been doing massage for 20 years, festival and musician massage as well, but I haven't really been doing festival massage for a while. How do you fellow therapists approach organizers? What sort of arrangements do you propose? Volunteering vs charging? Hours involved? Fees? Issues like passes, etc?

I've done festival massage before, but I have been kind of out of the loop for a number of years.

Thanks!

Harmony Festival (formerly Health and Harmony) June 11, 2005

2005-06-17T17:45:46Z

http://www.harmonyfestival.com/
June 11th and 12th, 2005

The festival is bigger this year, with many new changes.
Looking for those familiar with the fest, and Sonoma family folks.
There may also be a need for ambiance decorators, strict fire restrictions though...

Once again, the Harmony Festival (formerly known and the Health and
Harmony Fair) will be having their annual Saturday night Techno-Tribal
dance, with performers such as The Mutaytor, DJ Lorin, Karsh Kale,
Dhamaal Soundsystem, and so much more. And a beautiful, luscious
massage and chill area will be resurected...with up to eight spaces
available for massage therapists! Yes, this year's TTD will be at the
enormous Grace Pavilion in Santa Rosa right next door to the Harmony
Festival, and I am seeking out bodyworkers who would like to offer
their services for that night. No booth fee is neccessary, and healers
may receive a dollar a minute donation for their services.
Setup time can be as early as 6pm, and the dance ends at 2:30am. And
believe me, folks, people are usually waiting on line to be massaged by
all the healers! So please let me know soon if you would like to be a
part of this wonderful event.

Massage therapists needed for Solstinox Benefit March 5th.

2005-02-09T18:09:50Z

Hey there, I need a few massage therapists who would like to help Curtis in the treatment of his throat cancer. You will split the $1 per minute charge so a 10 minute massage means $5 for you and $5 for Curtis, unless you want to donate everything but I won't pressure you about it. You can use my table and/or chair which I will bring along with some sheets and towels, you should bring your preferred lotion.

Burning Solstinox: Connections –March 5, 2005 8PM-4AM @ SOMArts, 934 Brannan St in SF
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Once a year, on the midpoint between burns when we are farthest in time from any, we come together to celebrate Burning Solstinox - a holiday of hope, rebirth, love and the creative thrill of radical participation, when we experience playa joys in default. This year ’s theme is “Connections ”, and we invite you to create some by making magic with us in an amazing space. Don ’t miss this one; we ’ll be halfway home!

We do this all volunteer, totally non-commercial, and following the 10 Burning Man principles, so radically include yourself and participate. Help create an outrageous evening in a burning village that will keep that rocking playa vibe alive for another six months - there ’s no better way to switch your psyche from its vault of dusty memories to new visions of chaos.

This year ’s event is a FUNraiser benefit for Friends of Curtis, and we ’ve lined up the area ’s best DJ ’s, dazzling lighting, insane lasers, eye-popping visuals, blacklit bars, super cozy chill spaces, and lots of special playa style amusements sure to please all your senses. Plus, a raffle & silent auction for one-of-a-kind burner gifts and experiences, and even free coffee when it ’s time to go! Every bit of it gifted. All proceeds go directly to saving this burning musician ’s life and voice from cancer.

$16.93 presale, $20 at the door. There ’s no ATM; bring extra cash for amusements, bar & raffle.

For advance tix and info, visit www.friendsofcurtis.com/solstinox.

Because some nights are so special they only come once a year …
