Welcome to the Table

Mahj Awhile makes the ancient game of Mahjong your new favorite way to slow down and show up.

Learn, play, and connect - one tile at a time.

This isn't your grandma's bridge night.

(but she’s totally invited)

Mahj Awhile creates Mahjong experiences designed for the next generation of players - especially women who crave analog connection in a digital world.

Whether you’re here to learn, laugh, or just rack some tiles with new friends, our mission is simple: Make Mahjong accessible, beautiful, and social - without losing its spirit.

Let's make some Mahj magic

From beginner classes to monthly open-play sessions, Mahj Awhile is the slow life, shuffled. And it all starts with one hand.

The Heart behind the Business

Mahjong has always been a grounding ritual for Dee - a space where stress pauses, stories flow, and community forms.

With a background in interior design and a deep love for the game, she created Mahj Awhile as an invitation: To sit down. To slow down. To connect over something tactile, timeless, and honestly... kind of addictive.

Her signature teaching style? Hands-on, heart-forward, and totally un-intimidating.

And yes - she’ll be the one rearranging your tile racks if you’re doing it wrong (with love).

Petra M.

Hico, TX

I'm always looking for ways to get involved in the community, meet new people, and have fun with the ones I already know. This game checks all those boxes - and as a bonus, it genuinely challenges my mind. I love that it encourages me to put my phone down and play either on my own or with others. Dee is a fantastic teacher and an incredible support, always just a text away when you need help or encouragement. The only downside? It's a little addictive... but in the best way.

Dee is an incredible Mahjong teacher. Clear instruction, warm energy, and such a fun learning environment. I went from intimidated to confident and excited to play. Highly recommend to anyone curious about Mahjong!

Nancy V.

Dallas, TX

The game of Mahjong brought Dee and me together again after several years of not seeing one another and I'm so grateful! Dee is very knowledgeable, patient, and truly loves the game. It's nice to put the phone away, use our minds, catch up and do a lot of laughing. I definitely recommend Dee and Mahj Awhile!

The setup was gorgeous, the snacks were on point, and I laughed harder than I have in months. 10/10 girls’ night!

Lindsey M.

As someone who doesn’t love big crowds or loud bars, this was exactly the kind of night I’ve been craving. Social, but also relaxing, and seriously, just so much fun!
