what to expect
what a lesson is like
- You’ll learn the tiles, the Charleston and how to read this year’s card, then play real hands with Elise at the table.
- Groups are small, up to 7 people, and questions are always welcome. Nobody is rushed.
- You don’t need to bring anything. Elise brings the tiles, racks and cards.
You pay Elise directly: cash, check or Venmo.
