Become a Chess Yoga Coach

If you are a chess enthusiast, keeping tabs on all the latest international
chess tournaments, or are an experienced player, that's just great, but the
aim of Chess Yoga is to engage more schools in team chess competition so that
ideally, all schools are represented with a chess team for school spirit.
Therefore, even if you don't know a lot about chess, or maybe you are just interested
in learning more, Chess Yoga wants to encourage you to be the adult organizer
for your school's chess team.
In order to level the playing field for coaches with less experience with the game, Chess Yoga has provided a tutorial for the ChessBase software, accessible when you click software. Chess Yoga is an advocate for the idea that "chess genius" is really more something that comes from the proverbial 99% perspiration that goes into excellence in any activity. Working with this software is one way that this perspiration may be generated. The tutorial is designed to be comprehensible to those new to chess, but hopes to be potentially useful even to those who know something about chess but may have less experience with the software. Chess Yoga wants to emphasize that the game of chess is something that brings joy to all who encounter it. Those new to chess should realize that it offers a great depth of exploration, but can excite one's imagination from the first encounter. A chess proverb comes to mind that may be attributable to India: |
