Why not give a lil info about yourself....like who you are,what part of the world you live? What exactly do you teach? Some people teach anatomy some people technique. You get the idea.

I'm starting massage school in a month; what supplies do I need? ;P The information from the school says I need two sets of sheets (will Twin work?) and towels, and a mattress pad (protector? Twin?). Books and my first table are included in the cost of tuition, but I have no idea what books or how big the table is.

What can I do to prepare for school? What should I read?

Ask your school for a list of the books and details about the size/design/make of the table. Hopefully they will give you a couple of table options to choose from. Don't worry about buying sheets or towels before the first day of class. Part of your first day will be orientation and discussion of tables, supplies, etc. Anything needed immediately should be provided by the school.

While in school, Twin sheets will work reasonably well for most massage tables, though they will be a bit loose. You may choose to invest in fitted sheets later, but don't worry about it yet. Same goes for the mattress pad. Have fun in school! :)
