Got questions about our training modules? We have got you covered.
Yes, absolutely. Level 01 (The Logic Core) is designed specifically for children who have never seen a chessboard before. We start from the absolute basics—how the pieces move and the rules of the game.
We recommend starting from age 5 and above. At this stage, children have developed the cognitive ability to understand basic logic, spatial orientation, and turn-taking, making it the perfect window to introduce strategic thinking.
Don't worry. All our live sessions are recorded, and students get lifetime access to the dashboard recordings. Additionally, we provide a 15-minute doubt-clearing window before the next session to ensure they catch up.
We offer a Free Trial and Assessment Session. During this session, one of our certified coaches interacts with your child to evaluate their current understanding, logical patterns, and chess knowledge to recommend the perfect fit.
