Merry-Go-Mahjong is a Nashville, Tennessee based instruction and events service centered on the game of Mahjong. The company describes itself as “Nashville’s hub for learning, playing, and connecting over the timeless game of Mahjong.” Rather than operating as a retail storefront, it focuses on teaching the game, hosting gatherings, and building a local community of players. The business presents Mahjong as a social activity, framing it as “more than a game” and emphasizing joy, nostalgia, and a welcoming atmosphere for newcomers and experienced players alike.
Services
Merry-Go-Mahjong offers instruction and hosting for a range of experience levels. Its stated services include:
- Private and group lessons for all skill levels, including complete beginners.
- Gatherings and game nights where players meet to play together.
- Event hosting for homes and businesses, where the client provides the space and the company supplies the materials needed to play.
- Open play and community-focused events for those who already know the game.
The company highlights a beginner-friendly approach. A testimonial featured on the site describes a customer who “knew nothing about Mahjong” at the outset and “left feeling completely hooked” and confident enough to play with others afterward.
About
The business was founded by Becca, who is described as a Certified Mahjong Instructor. According to the site, Becca discovered Mahjong more than twenty years ago during a family beach vacation and later reconnected with the game when a friend brought a set to a casual gathering. Her interest grew through “lunch break meet-ups,” online matches, and weekend games with her sisters, which inspired her to launch Merry-Go-Mahjong and share the experience more widely. The company displays a “Certified OMM” designation, referencing Oh My Mahjong certification.

Additional Information
The company positions itself around community and connection rather than competition, welcoming players who have never tried Mahjong as well as those seeking a regular game. For event hosting, the model described on the site has the client provide the venue, whether a home or a business, while Merry-Go-Mahjong brings the supplies needed to play, making it possible to add Mahjong to private parties, work gatherings, and similar occasions. Lessons are available in both private and group formats so that individuals and groups can learn at a pace that suits them.
The site frames Mahjong as a celebration rather than simply a pastime, emphasizing the social and nostalgic dimensions of the game alongside the mechanics of learning to play. This approach is reflected in the customer testimonial featured on the site, in which a first-time player describes going from knowing nothing about the game to feeling hooked and confident enough to play with others.
