Learn chess with Magnus Academy, five-time world champion Magnus Carlsen’s Academy! We’ve taught 100,000 children to play including state & national champions, but most students are beginners looking to learn a new skill and have FUN. Class time is divided between lessons and practice games. Lessons range from the basic rules to advanced tournament strategies. Students will have the opportunity to play in tournaments (in-person and online) outside of club time. This in-person club includes free online extras including weekly practice tournaments!
Program Goals and Objectives:
For beginners to learn how to play chess and learn beginner principles and strategies. For beyond beginner players, to strengthen their skills and learn more advanced concepts.
