Bridge Basics 1: An Introduction

The course uses Bridge Basics I: And Introduction by Audrey Grant and taught in 8 lessons. This class is the perfect introduction to the game of bridge and is intended for people who have never encountered bridge and will also provide information of value to people who may know the basic mechanics but have not learned the principles of modern bidding. Topics covered are notrump/major suit/minor suit opening bids and responses. You'll gain everything you need to establish a foundation for Bridge.
