From your very first tile to confident host — patient, warm, and genuinely fun instruction in American mahjong.
Why learn with us
Learn from someone who simply loves the game
I started teaching because I couldn't stop talking about mahjong — and I wanted everyone around me to love it too. Whether you've never touched a tile or you're brushing up on strategy, lessons are relaxed, personal, and always a good time.

Choose what works for you
Private Lessons
One-on-one instruction tailored entirely to your pace and goals. Perfect for beginners who want focused attention or experienced players looking to sharpen their game.
Group Lessons
Gather your friends, your book club, or your coworkers for a shared learning experience. Group lessons are lively, social, and a wonderful way to bond over a new skill.
Guided Open Play Party
Combine a refresher lesson with a styled game night. I'll arrive, set the table beautifully to match your theme, refresh the group on the rules and game play, and stay to host open play. The ultimate mahjong group experience.
