Mahjong 101 or Open Play

Learn American Mahjong using NMJL rules and the 2025 card. Perfect for beginners and refreshers.

This Mahjong 101 class is taught using traditional National Mah Jongg League (NMJL) rules and the official NMJL card, which is updated annually. The session is designed for beginners and those looking for a refresher. We will cover the fundamentals of the game, including tiles, rules, and how to read the card, followed by an open, guided game where you can learn by playing in a supportive environment.

Please bring your NMJL 2025 league card with you. If you do not have a card, please email me in advance at .

Open Play tables are for experienced players that can play independently and do not need assistance.
