Freestyle Chess Coaches
Learn from expert coaches who focus on fundamentals, not memorization
Chess coaching can accelerate your improvement and get you on the right track faster than studying alone. However, traditional classical chess coaching often focuses heavily on opening theory and memorization—forcing you to learn hundreds of variations that may never appear in your games. Freestyle chess coaching is different.
Our freestyle chess coaches specialize in teaching the fundamental principles that apply to any position, whether it's freestyle chess (also known as Chess960 or Fischer Random). Unlike classical chess coaching that emphasizes memorized opening lines, freestyle chess coaching focuses on how to evaluate positions, develop pieces effectively, create plans, and calculate variations—skills that make you a stronger player in any chess variant. Our coaches will help you build a deep understanding of chess fundamentals that goes beyond rote memorization, preparing you to excel in freestyle chess rather than relying on classical opening theory.
