Get started in the chess world with our beginner-friendly class, where you'll learn the fundamentals and strategies to implement on your chess journey.
Join us for beginning chess lessons for students in grades 3-5 only.
The class will cover an interactive lesson and end with free play.
We will start with how the pieces move in the first lesson and then basic tactics and checkmating patterns during our 6 weeks!
Sign up for the series to learn all about chess. If you miss the first class, you will need a basic understanding of how the pieces move to join us. The class will adapt to the knowledge of the players and is open to students that have previously participated in the class.
