See the whole passing sequence
The Charleston is the opening ritual in American Mahjong. Before regular play begins, players pass three tiles at a time in a set sequence. It gives everyone a chance to improve the shape of a starting rack.
For a beginner, the important first step is simply learning the direction: right, across, then left. Everyone at the table follows the same direction at the same time.
