Bridge Lessons

If you’ve ever seen a show or movie from the ‘50s, ‘60s, or ‘70s where the parents were sitting around a table playing cards, chances are they were playing the game known as bridge. Bridge is a social game that pairs teams of two people against another team, making it a great game for couples nights to have fun.

It’s widely viewed as the most popular card game in the world, and long before streaming and social media, it was believed that over 50% of all households would play bridge in the evenings for entertainment!

If you’re interested in having fun and want to learn, our bridge lessons are designed for players of all ages and abilities.

Bridge Lessons for All Levels

Bridge is as much a social game as a mental exercise making it perfect for players of all ages and abilities. Like most parlor games, bridge becomes more enjoyable as you master the game.

But everyone has to start somewhere. So whether you’re an advanced bridge player or looking for bridge lessons for beginners, we match your specific experience and interests at TakeLessons.

A class for intermediate players will look much different than a class designed to introduce the game to someone. And the best way to learn bridge is to learn strategies, tips, and tricks from professionals, like our certified bridge teachers, who’ll customize a program for any level and ability.

Bridge as a parlor game is easy to learn but takes time to master. Our individualized classes will provide students with a range of lessons from the fundamentals of the game to tournament and competition preparation.

FAQ

Is bridge hard to learn?

No, bridge is easy to pick up but does take time to learn the finer points. The difficulty at the higher levels of play is why the game is called “game for a lifetime.” Of course, you can learn the game online, but to truly grasp the game and embrace its fun, getting instruction from masters of the game will only enhance your understanding and enjoyment.

Is bridge good for the brain?

Yes, bridge is a game that includes luck (the cards dealt to you) and strategy, making it a parlor game that stimulates and challenges the brain. Research has shown that playing bridge regularly improves reasoning skills, focus, and short-to-long term memory.

It’s the perfect social game for players of all ages and levels, so whether you’re looking to teach your kids a new interactive game or helping your advanced-aged loved ones maintain their mental acuity, bridge is the game for you.
