Description

I am so excited to share my love of mahjong with you. At its very heart, mahjong is a game about community — friends gathered around a table to play and enjoy relationships.

Mahjong is a beautiful blend of elements that delivers a full-brain massage and release of endorphins. The analytical part of your brain will love the combination of strategy and luck required to win. The creative part of your brain will enjoy the artwork of the tiles. The sensory part of your brain will be obsessed with the touch and sound of the tiles. The social part of your brain will be thrilled with the etiquette and relationships that surround the mahjong table.

This course covers all the mahjong basics so you can start playing today! But it goes much deeper than that. This indepth course covers everything you need to know for a standard National Mah Jongg League game as well as several “house rules” variations of the game.
