Mahj 101 with Mahj

A beginner-friendly American Mahjong lesson introduces the game’s rules, strategy and social traditions at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden. Taking place Tuesday, May 12, the 2.5-hour Mahj 101 session is led by Mahj in Miami and designed for new players.

Participants will learn the foundations of American Mahjong, including how to read the National Mah Jongg League card, deal tiles, understand the Charleston and work toward a winning hand. The class combines instruction with guided play, offering a structured introduction to the game in a relaxed group setting.

Instructor Abby Wyss, owner of Mahj in Miami, has played Mahjong for nearly a decade and teaches students across a wide age range. Optional yearly Mahjong cards will be available for purchase during the class.
