About MahjwithKaley

Hi, I'm Kaley - a DFW girl, boy mama of two, and someone who genuinely believes the best moments in life happen around a full table. I have been playing American Mahjong for almost four years, and after spending that time teaching friends, neighbors, and anyone who would sit still long enough to learn, I finally decided to make it official. Teaching brings me so much joy that turning it into something real just made sense.

If you know me, you know my love language is hosting. Whether it is a backyard cookout, a holiday dinner, or a girls' night that goes way too late, I have always believed that the best moments happen when people gather. So when I discovered mahjong, I knew immediately that this game was made for exactly that.

I have been playing American Mahjong for almost four years now, and in that time I taught just about every friend, neighbor, and willing family member I could get to sit down with me. There is something that happens the moment someone who was nervous about learning wins their first hand, the way their whole face changes, and I became completely addicted to being the person who got to create that moment. After years of teaching informally, I finally decided to make it a real priority, because it genuinely fills my cup in a way I did not expect.

I am a boy mama of two, a born hostess, and someone who takes the gathering just as seriously as the game. My goal has always been to make mahjong feel like the easiest "yes" you have ever said. No intimidating rules, no "you should already know this," and no classroom energy - just warm, beginner-friendly teaching that meets you exactly where you are.

I teach women across the DFW area in person, from McKinney and Frisco to Plano, Allen, and beyond. And for those of you who are not local, I offer virtual sessions, guides, and courses too, so no matter where you are, you can learn to play, build your confidence, and find your table.

Whether you are picking up tiles for the very first time or finally ready to stop pretending you understand the NMJL card, you are in the right place.

I am so glad you found me. Now let's play!
