  This class is for children who are complete beginners or who know only the very basics and may need review.

  This class is for children who already know the rules of chess. 

• Intermediate Group - Thursday 5:30 – 6:30pm MST - THIS CLASS IS FULL
  This class is for children who are comfortable playing full games and know some basic strategy and tactics.
  If this group will receive a lot of registrations we will open an Upper Intermediate Group on Thursdays at 6:40 - 7:40pm MST.

• Advanced Group - Tuesday 6:45 – 8:00pm MST
  This class is for children with a CFC rating who take part in official tournaments.

Groups:
Small groups. Students will be assigned to the groups according to their rating and skill level. Please be aware that space is limited and we operate on a first come, first serve basis.
If you're not sure which group will be the best for your child, no problem, we will help. During the registration process please provide us information about your child (like how many years of experience, if they play online, what their rating is etc). If necessary, we will schedule an assessment prior to joining a group.

​

Lessons & Method:
The lessons will take place via ZOOM + lichess online chess platform. Each participant will receive detailed instructions prior to the start of the lessons and full support from the coach during it. 
We teach using our own method created by our Head Coach - Woman International Master Agnieszka Matras-Clement. Each lesson will consist of a learning segment, where the coach will teach something new, followed by practical application of what has been taught (exercises, practice games etc).

 

Additional activities:
In addition to the lessons, each student will be able to join our tournaments, where they will be able to practice what they've learnt and compete in a friendly environment.

​

Cost:
Beginner and Intermediate Groups: $140 + GST ($147)
Advanced group: $160 + GST ($168). This group has longer lessons.
Payments via e-transfer to info@jumpingknight.com or by cheque to Jumping Knight Chess. When sending the e-transfer, please provide the name of a student so we can recognize your payment easily.
