Master Mah Jongg:
A Beginner's Intro to the Beloved Game
4 Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m. ET
May 13 - June 3
All classes will be recorded and sent to registrants.
Ready to jump in and learn the game that American Jews have loved for decades? Good — because it's not just your bubbe's game anymore!
Learn the basics of mah jongg from two of the best teachers in the country: Dara Collins and Donna Kassman, the founders of Modern Mahjong, who have taught beginners and advanced players for years.
After these four hour-long online sessions, you'll have a solid foundational knowledge of the game. You can review recordings of the lessons for a month after the final class session ends, too, to sharpen your skills.
So pull up a chair, bring all of your questions (and your friends), and let's learn how to play mah jongg this summer!
Although your teachers recommend investing in a mah jongg tile set, you do not need one for this course. You can learn with paper cutouts to start with.
Purchases of this course are non-refundable.

Their Zoom talks are recorded live with well-known authors, speakers, teachers, players and collectors.
