ABOUT US
Mindful Chess was founded in 2015 with the goal of improving access to chess coaching for children across London. We started off teaching a single group of 12 students once a week. Through schools and parents sharing information about our unique approach, our program has grown to now teach over 500 students a week. We are ltd company without share capital which means we are a not for profit where any profits are reinvested into improving the tuition we provide.
As well as our group lessons, we've recognised how productive 1:1 sessions are for adults and children. We therefore now teach individuals ranging from the age of 5 to 94 across 3 different continents.
