You just saw how it works

Now imagine every chapter
of your kit, like this.

The tiles move on screen. The Glances happen in front of you. Slow first, then at table speed. And in the play-along hands, the video stops so you make the call first.

Quick questions

Before you choose

Is the free lesson really part of the course?

Yes. It's one of the 38 lessons, exactly as it is in the course. When you buy, you'll find it there with all the others.

Do I need the kit to follow the course?

The course is built around the Rack-First Kit: the lessons follow the Playbook, the Section Maps and the Cheat Card. Keep them next to you.

How do I watch it?

On your phone, tablet or computer, from your course area at learn.mahjongstrategyschool.com. You get the access link by email right after checkout. Watch each lesson as many times as you like.

What's the real difference between $97 and $47?

The $47 version teaches the method. The $97 version adds the practice: 16 hands where you make every decision yourself, the Workbook to replay them, and the module on playing at a real table.

Is it for the 2026 card?

Yes. The method works on any card, and the 16 play-along hands are all on the 2026 card.

That was one lesson.
The other 37 are waiting.
