Class Experience

Yes - you can learn chess too! 

Chess is a very engaging and stimulating game both for the beginner and advanced, child and adult. Chess has been around for a few thousand years, even though the standard version we know of now as only been around for the past 1000 years or so. This game is full of excitement and strategy as both opponents attempt to devise plans to outdo their opponent and ultimately give checkmate! 

Chess is an excellent way to boost a child's analytical and thinking skills as well as keep an adult's mental abilities sharp and acute. 

Rest assured that you will be learning with an experienced player who has the patience and commitment to show how to play and enjoy the game. 

In this 10 week course - we will learn all the basics of chess to become full fledged beginners

We will start with learning how the pieces move / their value and how they are setup. General principle and ideas will be explained as well as technical rules . As we move on we will learn special moves and understanding different parts of the game. Going further we will learn the unique laws governing a king. Different strategies will be discussed as well that students can apply in a game . The focus is on having fun while also learning how to play chess . 

As the student grows, he/ she could start to learn chess language and we could start studying games of famous grandmasters such as Garry Kasparov and current world champion Magnus Carlson .
