About the Instructor
Katie started playing Mahjong about five years ago. She was immediately hooked! After playing
with a group of friends for a few years, she wanted to "spread the love" of the game with others
and build a community.
She quickly realized there was no dedicated place in KC where you could show up, play and
maybe meet new friends. After doing a little research, she learned she was not alone. Katie
learned that other cities had clubs to learn and play American Mahjong, and she thought
Kansas City needed its own dedicated group.
So, in September of 2024, KC Mahjong Club was born! Since then, they’ve added 3 more
teachers to their roster. They’ve taught over 1000 players in the KC Metro area along with
several groups in other cities such as Des Moines, IA and Denver, CO.
Katie is a certified teacher with Oh My Mahjong! and she uses their teaching program and
materials for her classes.
This is a 2-session course to learn the game. The sign-up is for both lessons
