Our chess courses offer you two types of the ?royal game? to learn and practice. On the one hand there is classic chess, in which games are played, and on the other hand there is chess composition, in which chess problems have to be solved in just a few moves.
You can find further information below. The course name tells you when and for how long which course takes place.

Classical chess - excursion on 64 fields
Chess has been very popular for months thanks to the Netflix series ?The Queen?s Gambit?. This course is aimed at chess enthusiasts who already know how to play chess and want to deepen their skills.
In small theory units, we provide you with basic knowledge about the three phases of the game of chess: opening, middlegame and endgame. However, the focus is on the practical application of what has been learned. You also have the opportunity to send in your own games ? be it from the course or private games ? for analysis or to present them as a practical example.
This course is ideal for anyone who plays chess as a hobby and wants to compete on the board with other chess enthusiasts. Here, different topics relating to the game of chess are discussed and analyzed together.
Requirement: basic knowledge of chess
