### Prerequisite

You must have completed our Hong Kong Beginner class or be comfortable with tile types and basic hand-building.

### Who’s It For?

So you’ve seen Akagi, watched Saki, played Yakuza, or stared at a Riichi table and thought, “What is even happening?” We’ve got you.
This five-session course will teach you how to play Japanese Riichi mahjong — a fast-paced, strategic version of the game packed with unique scoring, dramatic twists, and its own deep culture of play. If you’re into tactics, tension, or anime-style glory, this is the path for you.
