Learn the ancient game that does for your mind what Zumba does for your body!
Originally from China, Mah Jongg is a game of skill, strategy and calculation and involves a certain degree of chance. Played with a set of 136 tiles based on Chinese characters and symbols, 4 players methodically select, pass and discard tiles, each with the hope of creating a legal hand. The DCA provides the Mah Jongg sets required for play.
Experienced instructor Joan Allocca leads the Mah Jongg classes at the DCA.
Joan has been teaching Mah Jongg for many years, and has the patience but also a strategic approach to every hand, which she gladly shares with her students.
