Mahjong Community Spotlight: Kitty Wu Coaching

The Mahjong Community blog likes to share stories about the global mahjong community, its people, businesses, and passions. We like to introduce you to people from all over the world that are inspiring. We love it when people tell us what connects them to mahjong and to hear their mahjong related stories. We want to give you insight into the mahjong community, the vast range of people who love the game, and the connections they have to family, friends, and the world.

In this video, we introduce you to Kitty Wu Coaching. Kitty Wu is an inspiration to ladies that want to live a holistic, passionate life. She is a holistic health coach and founder of Kitty Wu Coaching. She has served numerous clients across the US & internationally. Her mission is to help women of color heal any unconscious limiting beliefs, in order to manifest their healthiest selves.

In my conversations with Kitty, she came across as really genuine, caring, and authentic. When we were chatting about mahjong, she explained how mahjong is a family tradition. Every get together with relatives in Taiwan includes eating dinner together and playing mahjong after. We will talk about Kitty Wu again in another blog when we get into the difference between the Hong Kong style of mahjong and the Taiwanese style of play.

Mahjong Party versus Mahjong Community

I just want to introduce us and chat about what our vision is for mahjong and the mahjong community globally and in Asia. It is estimated that 600,000,000 people play mahjong worldwide. There are 35 countries that have mahjong representatives in worldwide mahjong organizations. The game began in Asia, and then spread globally. There is a vast difference between the styles of play in some countries and the nuances in the game between countries. For this reason, we have 2 separate blogs to discuss mahjong.

This blog, The Mahjong Community, is a subdivision of Mahjong Party. The Mahjong Party can be found at www.themahjongparty.com. Its purpose is to focus on the Asian styles of mahjong, with a beginning focus on the Hong Kong or Classical style of mahjong, and later will expand to the other styles of play found throughout Asia. Mahjong Party features in depth interviews with people and businesses in the the Asian mahjong community, explaining some of the Asian culture and nuances around mahjong, Asian recipes, food, and traditions around mahjong. There are many complexities to the Asian styles of play, so we wanted to have a site fully dedicated to that. We are also building a course that goes into depth about the Hong Kong style of play, and we will also feature other styles of play on our learning platform. The blog on Mahjong Party is therefore about the Asian styles of the game and the Asian community.

Returning back to this blog, The Mahjong Community blog, our focus here is about mahjong on a global scale. Mahjong is played worldwide, in the USA, Canada, France, the Netherlands, and in many more countries. This blog will go into the worldwide interest in mahjong and will interview players from around the globe. It will feature articles about mahjong jewellery and designs that include the NMJL version of play. The other blog, on Mahjong Party, focuses solely on Asian styles of play and its articles about merchandise and jewellery solely reflect that of Asian styles of play. 

We welcome you to both our blogs, or whichever one suits you most. Mahjong is such a complex, fascinating game, we hope to share our insights with you wherever you find us. 

Mahjong Cakes

The Mahjong Community

Welcome to the Mahjong Community. The place to chat about mahjong in all of its variations, the players, the merchandise, and my favourite: mahjong baked goods!

We will be going into the stories behind the players, why they play, what brings them together. A lot of players have incredible history together. Those stories are at the heart of the heart of the game.

The merchandise is also fascinating. Earrings, necklaces, pants, skirts, bags, and more. Custom mahjong sets. Fascinating mahjong tables.

The mahjong themed baked goods are my favourite. Colorful, unique and meaningful. Cakes, muffins, cookies. Beyond that are the recipes and dishes that are always at mahjong parties. One household might have dim sum and congee, another one has sushi, another one serves tea and biscuits. 

The mahjong community is global and extensive. Join me in this blog while we go exploring and meet the people behind the tiles.
