The next workshop is

SATURDAY, MAY 16 AT 2:00PM

This workshop is for people who already know the basics of playing mahjong and are ready to dive into Japanese-style mahjong, also called Riichi mahjong. If you have taken a Fundamentals lesson with us or already know how to play a different style of mahjong, then you’re ready for this follow-up!

Players should be familiar with the following before starting this lesson:

• basic hand structure: 4 sets of three and a pair
• calls: chi, pon, ron (or equivalent)

This lesson will introduce you to:

• dora
• yaku (valid hands)
• Japanese scoring basics
• and more!

As with our fundamentals course, this won't just be a lecture, we'll take you through real gameplay and discuss actual hands and situations. This lesson is a great bridge from understanding the core mechanics of gameplay to being comfortable sitting down with others to play!

Additional details:

• Each workshop will be 2-2.5 hours long on Saturdays starting at 2:00pm
• Riichi meet-up will be included in the ticket price, so you can continue to practice and play from 4-10pm after the workshop
• Each participant will get a take home pamphlet for their own reference
