At Minerv Chess, we believe that anyone can learn to master chess. We offer flexible learning options tailored to fit your busy schedule, available both in-person at our academy and live online from the comfort of your home.
The Foundation
Perfect for absolute beginners. We introduce the pieces, the board, and the fundamental rules of the game through fun, interactive stories and puzzles.
The First Moves
For kids who know how the pieces move but want to learn how to play a full game. We focus on basic checkmating patterns, opening principles, and simple tactics.
The Strategist
Designed for players looking to play competitively. Students dive into deeper tactical combinations, middle-game planning, and learning how to analyze their own mistakes.
The Champion
For seasoned players aiming for tournaments and ratings. This high-intensity level covers deep endgame mastery, advanced opening repertoires, and psychological preparation for competitive play.
Immersive, face-to-face coaching in a high-energy classroom environment. Great for building local friendships and over-the-board tournament practice.
Live, engaging virtual classrooms with expert coaches using state-of-the-art digital chess boards. Perfect for flexible learning from anywhere in the world.
"More than just a game!" "We initially enrolled our 8-year-old son to cut down on his screen time, but what he gained was so much more. He used to rush through his schoolwork, but chess has taught him to slow down, focus, and think before he acts. The coaches are incredibly patient and make learning so much fun."
— Srinivas P
"Brilliant online classes!" "We were skeptical about how online chess would work for a 6-year-old, but the virtual classes are so interactive and engaging! My daughter looks forward to her Basic level session every single week. The digital tools they use keep the kids completely locked in."
— Sakshi Mehra
"An inclusive and empowering atmosphere." "As a mom, I love that this academy is founded by two amazing women. They have created an environment that is warm, nurturing, and incredibly encouraging. My daughter felt at home from day one, and her confidence has absolutely skyrocketed since she joined."
— Nidhi Rao
"My 7-year-old used to get distracted so easily, but since joining the academy, we've noticed a real difference in her concentration. She absolutely loves her weekly classes."
