Mahjong is a centuries-old ancient Chinese Tile Game.
Rebecca specializes in American Mahjong and has helped hundreds fall in love with this beautiful game. Each instructional session includes American Mahjong playing cards and an RWR instructional booklet for continued play post-instruction.
"Mahjong harkens back to an image of the 1950s, when Jewish and Asian women built community while playing the tile game, dishing gossip, and eating snacks. The ancient Chinese game is played with a little luck and a little strategy. Each player at a table of four is dealt a hand of 13 tiles marked with symbols. There are three suits called cracks, bams, and dots, plus dragons, winds, and flowers. The goal is to trade and collect tiles, complete one of the patterns listed on the official scorecard, and be the first to declare, “Mahjong!” A resurgence of mahjong has breathed new life into Atlanta social circles, from kids playing the fast-paced Hong Kong version to neighbors drinking mocktails on the back porch while fine-tuning their skills." —Rough Draft Atlanta
