Private Mahjong Lessons
A Playful, In-Home Beginner Class (for 4–8 friends)
The beginner-friendly lesson — for the elegantly curious
This experience is designed specifically for first-timers (or anyone who’s watched a game and thought, “I need to know what’s happening.”)
It’s 2.5 hours of guided instruction plus real gameplay—structured, relaxed, and never overwhelming.
By the end, you’ll understand how the game works, how to read the card, and how to play with confidence.
Lessons are offered in English or Spanish, so everyone at the table can feel comfortable, included, and fully in the flow.
