Can I go to the Mahjong for Beginners at the rec center to learn how to play or is it better to take a lesson at the College?

but most important is to practice. You can meet players interested in getting together at both. Just take the first step and get a group together on a fairly regular basis outside of class, at least that's my advice (since you sorta asked).

Joan DeCarlo use to teach a class at Laurel Manor. Good for beginners.

There is a beginners group also at Fish Hawk on Thursday mornings. I learned from friends and one class with Joan.

I am sure you will find plenty of people to help you. Go to rec centers and sometimes just watch.

Good Luck

I learned to play Mahjongg from Joan DiCarlo at Chula Vista Rec Center. She is great. There are usually a bunch of beginners who learn together, it's really fun. The Rec News lists Mahjongg games and classes.

I will check out the rec centers and groups later on. I just want a few lessons right now. Thanks for the information.
