The new name reflects the company\u2019s plans to grow beyond its inaugural clubhouse near Fashion Square, with additional locations under consideration and long-term expansion envisioned for California and Las Vegas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founder Julia Zastrow established Arizona\u2019s first membership-based, brick-and-mortar mahjong club in January 2026. The new name signals the next phase of the business: building a growing collection of clubs rather than remaining centered around a single location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5.jpg\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1024\"  height=\"819\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"\"  class=\"wp-image-34523 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5-1024x819.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5-1024x819.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5-768x614.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5-380x304.jpg 380w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5-800x640.jpg 800w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5-1160x928.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5-80x64.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125549\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-5.jpg 1500w\" ><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Originally founded in 2004, The Mahj Clubs began by hosting intimate mahjong gatherings in members\u2019 homes. What started with the simple idea that mahjong could be a reason to gather, with connection as the true point, eventually grew into a full clubhouse when Zastrow opened the Scottsdale location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe started with a simple belief: mahjong is an excuse to gather, but connection is the reason people come back,\u201d said Zastrow. \u201cThe Mahj Clubs reflect where the community is headed \u2013 more places where people can learn, play, meet new friends and feel like they belong. Our Scottsdale club proved that this model resonates, and we are ready to bring it to more neighborhoods across the Valley.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The current 2,600-square-foot clubhouse seats up to 80 players across 13 automatic mahjong tables. The space also includes a lounge, bar-height gathering area, private-event and catering capabilities, and a boutique featuring mahjong-themed gifts. Programming includes open and drop-in play, beginner lessons, guided play, competitive leagues, socials, pop-up events, workshops and private events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11.jpg\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1024\"  height=\"683\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"\"  class=\"wp-image-34524 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11-1024x683.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11-380x253.jpg 380w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11-80x53.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11-1160x773.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/valleygirlblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/06125550\/The-Mahj-Clubs-Courtesy-of-The-Mahj-Clubs-11.jpg 1500w\" ><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Mahj Clubs welcomes anyone interested in playing or learning to play.
