Curious about American Mahjong but not sure where to start? This one-day introductory class is designed to guide you through the fundamentals of the game in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Participants will learn the basics of American Mahjong, including tile recognition, game setup, turn order, and how to read and play using The Big Card by The Mahjong Line. Instruction will focus on understanding the card, building hands, and developing confidence in gameplay.

We’ll break for a lunch period—feel free to bring your own lunch or step away to grab a bite before we dive back in.

Tiles and cards will be provided for use during class, and each participant will leave with their own copy of The Big Card to continue playing after class.

No prior experience is required—just bring your curiosity and be ready to learn a classic game enjoyed for generations!
