About Chess Coaching for Kids
Why Chess for Kids?
I see chess as way more than a game—it's a brain workout. Kids today have distractions everywhere. Here, they pick up real skills: focus, patience, and handling wins and losses. I've watched kids walk in shy and unsure, and walk out thinking three steps ahead, both on the board and off.
Our Approach
- Since 2011, we've stuck to basics: strong foundation, steady progress.
- Classes run twice a week, with monthly progress checks. Parents actually see the growth.
- Our flexible set-up: join us in Jayanagar, Bangalore or go for our live online chess lessons for beginners. No commute? No problem.
- We keep group classes small (10-14 max), so your child isn't lost in the crowd. Want full attention? One-on-one is there too.
Who Teaches Here
- Our 15+ coaches aren't just teachers—they're FIDE-rated, active in tournaments, and know what it takes for chess tournament training for juniors.
- They're not changing every other week—you get consistency.
What Kids Learn
- From the first pawn move to advanced tactics, our chess curriculum for children covers it all.
- Beginner chess classes for kids focus on piece value and openings, then move to sharper strategy as they grow.
Results, Not Just Promises
- Started from a parking lot, now 7,000+ students and 200+ medals later, we've helped kids win at every level—from school prizes up to GM titles.
- But honestly, the biggest win? Seeing kids get more confident, no matter where they start.

My Story
Chess Shoots started in 2011 with just one goal - give kids a fair shot at the chess board, no big upfront fees, no boring classes. We’ve seen tiny pawns turn into queens, 7000+ students, 200+ medals, and Jayaram sir always reminding us - discipline matters but fun does too. Parents say joining us was a ‘very good decision’ and that’s our real trophy. For us, it’s about building a community, not just collecting cups.
