Review Body: Learning to play Mahjong was a great experience with Sabrina. She took complete novices through the game in a very structured way enabling us to understand the game . By the end of the session we were able to play a game and took handouts away to refresh the memory once home. Looking forward to playing with some confidence now. Sabrina is an excellent teacher and clearly enjoys sharing the game of Mahjong with visitors.

Review Body: What a great time! The session was the perfect balance of learning how to play and then getting the chance to actually complete a couple of rounds. Highly recommend. The setting was very comfortable and it was interesting meeting other players from around the world. There were 6 of us and everyone was very friendly.

Review Body: My mum and I had the best time learning. Sabrina was such a patient teacher, explaining everything logically and clearly. If I had it my way I would’ve stayed hours to keep playing! We bought a Mahjong set and are officially addicted! I also can’t stop playing the app Sabrina introduced. Thanks for a great time!

Review Body: What a fantastic way to end our three-day offsite!
The Mahjong Team Building experience was the perfect activity for our LT team and such a wonderful addition to our time in Singapore. Not only was it a fun and engaging team building event, but it also gave us the opportunity to enjoy a unique cultural experience together.
The facilitators were amazing. Having a dedicated 'teacher' at each table made such a difference, and the instructions were clear, easy to follow, and perfect for complete beginners.
Everyone had an incredible time, with plenty of laughs and friendly competition along the way. Best of all, we all walked away with a genuine understanding of how to play Mahjong!
A special thank you to Sabrina for all her coordination, patience, and support in bringing the experience together. It was greatly appreciated and helped make everything run so smoothly.
I would highly recommend this experience to any team looking for something fun, interactive, and memorable to do together in Singapore.

Review Body: Sabrina was a great host, this was literally at her house and she was really patient in guiding us through the game. While some players were already familiar with mahjong, a few only knew the Hong Kong version. Sabrina, together with the facilitators, took the time to explain the Singapore rules clearly and ensured everyone was comfortable before we started.
As a group, it turned out to be a fantastic team-bonding activity for our colleagues across different SEA offices. Despite our varying levels of familiarity with the game, the smaller groups of three to four per table sparked great conversations and plenty of laughter. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect and have fun together.

In April 2019, Sabrina began hosting the mahjong experience to bring people worldwide together and share her love for this cherished pastime. Mahjong holds a special place in Sabrina's heart, as it reminds her of her carefree teenage and early 20s years spent playing with friends until the wee hours of the morning. Today, Sabrina and her team of coaches use mahjong to meet new people and share cultural stories and experiences. The possibilities are endless when you gather around a mahjong table, and they hope to create unforgettable memories with each game played.
