What it is

Mahj with Stacey is a first-party American Mahjong lesson / instructor business based in Lincoln Park, Chicago. Stacey teaches a numbered path — Mahjong 101, 102, and 103 — plus private group lessons, corporate team-building, and a Monday social club for players who already know the basics. It is a structured learning provider, not a solitaire app and not a national org.

Who it’s for

Chicago (Lincoln Park and surrounding) players who want in-person American Mahjong lessons or coached play with printed level tracks — beginners through strategy — including private group bookings and corporate events.

Why it’s listed

Plaza needs a citeable first-party lesson school that is not already on disk (not So Bam Fun, School of American Mah Jongg / mahjongteacher.com, Mahjong Journey, Atlanta Mahjong Mentors, Master Your Mahjong, Lara’s Mahjong Edit, Mahj with Molly, Mrs Mahj, Mahj Over Matter, MKE Mahjong, Bon Mahj, Fleur de Mahj, Mountain Mahj, Après Mahjong, Mahj Life, or Tom Sloper). Chicago instructor/school, not another Kansas City club.
