July Mahjong Workshops for Newbies (Multiple dates & time slots)

Beginner to Mahjong?

Mahjong is a timeless tile-based game that has been played across Asia for over 300 years and is now gaining global popularity. Unlike poker, where you recognise the cards instantly, Mahjong requires learning the tiles and rules before you can play—and that’s where many beginners struggle.

We’ve often heard how friends and family don’t always have the patience to teach every detail, and after hours of trying, beginners still feel confused about the game.

That’s why Dear Asia Mahjong Workshops are here to help!

Why Learn With Us?

✔ We’re Professional Teachers – We understand how people learn best and have designed two step-by-step workshops that makes Mahjong easy and engaging.
✔ Mahjong is More Than a Game – It’s a vital part of Asian social culture, and Dear Asia London, as a language and culture school, is passionate about sharing these traditions with you.

Ready to Play!

In this Newbie workshop, you’ll start playing right away! We’ll introduce you to the tiles, sets, and winning hands while guiding you through the basic rules and game rhythm. By the end of this session, we can guarantee that everyone who comes will learn how to play, and feel confident and ready to play Mahjong with others.

Our Monthly Programs

Every second Saturday of the month, we host a Mahjong Workshop for Newbies, designed for absolute beginners. This is a more intimate, hands-on session where our expert instructors provide full guidance and personalized attention, ensuring you feel confident in the game.

On the last Saturday of the month, we organize a larger Mahjong Workshop for Everyone with three different tables to suit all skill levels:
🔹 Newbie Table – For those just starting out
🔹 Level 2 Learner Table – For players learning to score and improve gameplay
🔹 Just Play Table – For players who just want to enjoy playing games without instructor

A Social Game in a Social Space

Mahjong isn’t just about strategy—it’s about bringing people together. Our workshop offers a fun, welcoming space where you can meet new people, have a great time and maybe even organise future game nights together! We love seeing friendships blossom over Mahjong.

What’s Included:

✔ Majong instructor - Our experienced instructor to guide you in learning and playing

✔ Mahjong Worksheets – Specially designed materials to help each level of players learn and level up!
✔ Free Tea & Coffee – Enjoy a warm drink while you play. ☕🀄
