Our team of coaches, including players like Venu Gopal and Shouvik Dutta, actively compete in events like the KSC Rapid Open Tournament. This means when you train with us, you are learning strategies directly from players who understand the pressure and tactics of modern competitive chess. We have moved beyond just being a local academy. By partnering with institutions like IIIT Bangalore and Capstone High School, we bring professional-grade chess training directly into classrooms. Our official affiliation with Chess.com also gives our students a global platform to practice, join clubs, and compete in international arenas. Whether you are signing up for a group session at our Whitefield center or booking 1-on-1 mentorship, you are not just getting a teacher. You are getting access to our entire curriculum of puzzle-solving, opening repertoires, and game analysis. We focus on the 'Move It Smart' philosophy, ensuring every student understands the logic behind every move rather than just memorizing patterns. If you are looking to take your game to the next level, or help your child build a strong strategic foundation, our team is ready to help you make your next winning move. ## About Check N Mate We are a team of passionate chess players who love teaching as much as we love competing. From our Whitefield academy to our school programs across Bengaluru, we are dedicated to helping you master the board.
