Learn one of Hong Kong's most iconic pastimes through this Beginner Mahjong course! Our experienced teacher will have you enjoying this classic Cantonese-style game in no time, as you discover what the tiles mean, gain an understanding of the rules and how to score, and begin to engage in friendly competition. By the end of the class, you'll be so proud of how far you've come!  

About this Course 

These 3 classes will take place at a cozy room in the AWA Member Space on Tuesday mornings, (January 13th, 20th & 27th), followed by a special bonus outing to play at a mahjong parlor on February 3 (this outing is optional).  

About the Teacher

Morlene is originally from the States but has been living in Hong Kong for more than 20 years. She has been an avid mahjong player for many of these years (originally Cantonese style and more recently Taiwanese style), playing with the AWA for the last six years. Morlene not only loves the game herself but also mentoring players of all levels. She runs our Mahjong Group at the AWA Member Space every Monday afternoon and moderates our Mahjong Club's WhatsApp Group.  She is excited to combine her enthusiasm for teaching and playing mahjong in this class, where she'll share her love for the game with you.  Get ready to add skill and strategy to your luck!

NOTE:  Attendance at the first class (13 January) is essential, as it lays the foundation for the course. To ensure fairness to all participants, students who miss this foundation class will not be able to continue the course.

Questions about this class? Please feel free to contact Morlene on WhatsApp: +852 9120 0672 or [email protected]
