If you’ve taken my Mahjong 101 class (or have dabbled in the game but haven’t quite cracked the code), it’s time to take the next step with Mahjong 102!
This class is designed for players who know the basics - maybe you’ve taken one class, or played a handful of times (less than five?), or dusted off the tiles after a long break - but you’re ready to gain confidence and take your skills to the next level.
Mahjong 102 starts with a quick review of the material covered in 101 and continues with the finer points of etiquette/sportsmanship, rules, tips, and strategy. Well also do guided play. Teamwork format will be used, you’ll be working with partners seated at your table.
With my Mahjong Made Simple teaching method, we’ll dive deeper into strategies, sharpen your understanding of the rules, and get you playing with more confidence. And because I’m a Certified Mahjong Instructor, you can trust that you’ll learn from someone who’s as passionate about teaching as they are about playing!
But don’t worry - it’s not all serious business. My lessons are approachable, fun, and sprinkled with humor to keep things light (because learning should never feel like a chore). You’ll leave class not only smarter about Mahjong but also ready to play independently and impress at your next game! Classes are held at Pierogi Bar in St. Petersburg, FL.
Registrations are non-refundable to ensure the group can learn and play as planned. Please make every effort to attend your booked lesson. In a true emergency, you may find someone to fill your spot, or I’ll work with you to reschedule.

I HAVE WANTED TO PLAY MAHJONG FOR 30 YEARS. A FRIEND INTRODUCED ME TO GAIA. I HAVE TAKEN SEVERAL LESSONS AND ATTENDED SEVERAL PLAY SESSIONS. I LOVE GAIA'S METHOD OF TEACHING. SHE IS PATIENT BUT SO POINTED IN HER INSTRUCTIONS. WE ARE SHOWN THE RULES AND THE TRADITIONS OF THE GAME. SHE HAS NOT ONLY MADE THE GAME FUN, SHE HAS MADE IT MORE INTERESTING THAN I HAD IMAGINED. I HAVE BECOME ENGAGED IN THE ENTIRE ASPECTS OF THE GAME. IT HAS BEEN A GREAT RIDE! THANK YOU GAIA!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It’s been an absolute joy teaching you and seeing your excitement for Mahjong grow. I love sharing not just the game, but its rich traditions, and I’m thrilled to hear you’re enjoying every aspect of it. Can’t wait for more fun at the Mahj table with you! ✨
Wow, I learned way more then I anticipated in a 2 hour class. Gaia taught in such a way that I caught on quickly. I can’t wait to start practicing now
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m thrilled to hear that the class helped you catch on quickly. Mahjong is such a fun and rewarding game, and I’m excited for you to start practicing! I hope to see you at the Mahj table again soon. Happy playing! 😊
Gaia has a unique gift of explaining how to play Mahjong in a clear and logical manner. After her encouraging lessons our group felt confident to dive into competitive play. I will add we were complimented by some seasoned players who were surprised we were novices!
Gaia provided excellent and unique instruction. She presented the lesson in a logical sequence with visual clues and historical insight that explain why things are done, how to remember the rules and beginning concepts of strategy. Her passion for mahjong prepared me to play with joy and confidence.
Gaia is incredible! I gathered a group of friends and most of them had never heard of Mahjong. Gaia was amazing at explaining the history and traditions of the game. The atmosphere she created was very relaxed, fun, and productive. We left knowing the game of Mahjong and are now meeting weekly to play. Gaia has been available since our workshop to answer any questions we have as we continue to enjoy Mahjong. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn the game.
