Getting Started in New Orleans

New Orleans has a parlor and a JCC program. Fleur de Mahj, in Metairie, offers beginner and strategy classes, guided play and tournaments using official National Mah Jongg League rules, and the New Orleans JCC runs multi-session beginner classes at its Metairie and Uptown locations. If you are new, a JCC class or a Fleur de Mahj beginners event is a good first step. Booking is usually required, so check the schedule first.
