Description
The School of Mahj teaches American mahjong in a 2-class series that begins with this introductory class. When you sign up for your 101 class, please also sign up for a 102 class, too. In our beginner-friendly Mahj 101 session, you’ll learn the core mechanics of the game in preparation for learning American Mahjong-specifics in Mahjong 102. Bring your curiosity and leave with a new favorite pastime!
We also offer in-home classes for groups of friends who want to learn how to play together as well as couples classes and classes geared to parents and children. Email Melanie for pricing details for these alternatives.
Classes are held at 1861 Distillery in Thomasville, GA, from 6-8pm.
