Our founder, your host
Meet Courtney
Courtney fell completely for American mahjong, and along the way learned exactly how to bring someone new into it without ever overwhelming them. She teaches across the South Denver Metro area: coming to homes with everything the table needs, and hosting open sessions for anyone who would rather just turn up.
Her way is simple: warm, hands-on and unhurried. You will be playing within the hour, and you will never feel tested. The point was always the people around the table, and that is still the part she loves most.
A standing game in Lone Tree
We come to your table
Lone Tree already has a real appetite for getting together, between RidgeGate and the Arts Center, people here like a good standing plan on the calendar. Courtney teaches the American game on the National Mah Jongg League card, the one most people in Lone Tree are looking to learn, and every lesson includes the full kit and a beginner guide so the game stays with you after we pack down.
Lone Tree is one of the youngest cities in the South Denver Metro area, built up fast around Park Meadows and the RidgeGate corridor, which also means a lot of its residents are newer to the area, still building their circle. It is exactly the kind of place where a newcomer finds her footing fastest: the calendar and the curiosity are already there, just waiting for a reason to fill the table.

Common questions
Do I need any experience?
None at all. Most of the people we teach have never touched a tile. Please don’t study beforehand, just come curious and we’ll have you playing real hands within the hour.
How do beginners learn American mahjong?
The easiest way in is at a table, not from a rulebook. Rather than memorizing the card first, most beginners learn by playing. Your host deals the tiles and introduces each piece in the flow of a real game. You’ll be drawing, discarding and finishing hands in your first hour, and it clicks within a game or two. No studying beforehand.
What lesson formats do you offer?
Three. A private lesson (for two) and a group lesson (4–8) both happen in your own home. We come to you and bring the whole table. A public open session is a scheduled open lesson you can join without hosting, held at a venue near Backcountry, perfect if you’d rather not host, or you’re new in town and want to meet other players.
Where do the lessons happen?
Private and group lessons happen in your own home: we come to you, you host, and we bring the whole table. If you’d rather not host, you can join a public open session at a venue near the Backcountry neighborhood (we share the exact spot by email). Either way, we teach across the South Denver Metro area: Highlands Ranch, Castle Pines, Lone Tree, Parker, Greenwood Village, Cherry Hills, Centennial and Littleton.
What do I need to provide?
For a lesson in your home, just a table big enough for everyone to sit around, some chairs, and your people; we bring everything else: the tiles, mats, racks, tile grabbers, the American mahjong card and a beginner guide. At a public open session there’s nothing to bring; just turn up.
What’s included in a lesson?
Tiles, mats, racks, tile grabbers, the American mahjong card, a beginner guide, and a host who teaches hands-on the whole way through. For a lesson at home you provide the table and the company; at a public open session you simply join. Either way, there’s nothing extra to buy.
How much does it cost?
A private lesson is for two people at $120 per person ($240 in total), and a group lesson (4–8 players) is $75 per person, both in your own home. A public open session is $75 per person to join, no hosting needed. Every option includes all the equipment, the card, the beginner guide and hands-on play.
How do I pay?
