Re: Mahjong
Avista,
Laurel Manor on Tuesdays at 11; Chula Vista on Friday at noon....both places have open play as well as an individual giving beginner lessons. The challenge there is that a first time beginner knows far less than someone who has been there 3 or 4 weeks in a row so everyone at the lesson table is starting from a different point. But, it seems to work. There may be other sessions...check out the rec news to see where else speaks of lessons.
I signed up for beginner mahjong class through the Lifelong Learning College. 6 weeks, 2 hrs a week, for about $60. The instructor, Harriet Bender, is excellent (a retired school teacher and quite a mahong expert). She really starts with the basics and it is a nice gradual introduction to the game, strategy, etc. By week 3 you are playing a real game. It sure has been a great introduction for me.
It's a fun game...good luck to you.
