Editor’s Tip
In by 11am, home by 2pm!
New York City’s #1 venue for absolute beginners up until champion level play.
Participants are “prepared to play”, “prior to play”, by Chess NYC Coaches.
Taught how to "sit down to win", but internalize and learn from losing.
They learn that "wins" occur, even in "losing"...That improved playing is, in fact winning. There is no escaping losing...and that's why "winning feels so good"!
