“Ten Steps to Modern Bridge” starts Monday, October 12, 2026 and runs on Monday & Thursday evenings through November 12. In this lesson series, you’ll learn Bridge from the ground up using the Two-Over-One Game Forcing bidding system. This fast-paced series appeals to those with at least a little cardplaying experience, as well as players who want to get back into the game using modern methods.
When you complete this series, you will be ready to play Bridge in social games and in introductory Duplicate games. Seattle Bridge Center offers a Rookie Duplicate game on Tuesday evenings. The full syllabus for this lesson series is here: TSBB-Syllabus-202610.pdf
No partner needed — you’ll meet several new players along the way.
Lesson fees are collected on a pay-as-you-go basis. You can stop or return at any time. The cost is $15 per person per lesson, with discounts for players age 25 and under, and for returning students. Cash, cards, and tap payments accepted.
