KLC Intensive Training Program is a one-of-a-kind tournament-based program. This unique experience creates an environment for students to discover chess opening, middle game, and endgame and concept exploration. The KLC Intensive Training Program provides some of the highest-level training for children and teens in California. KLC Team USA Chess Program is one of the top scholastic programs in the United States. In 2022 our team had 10 students qualified for Team USA and participated in World Cadet/Youth Chess Championship — highest level scholastic chess tournament in the world.
KLC Intensive Training Program is focus on discovering player’s chess intuition. Chess Intuition is the ability to know or understand something instinctively, even without conscious reasoning. In a game of chess this would imply that we instinctively know which moves are best – even before we’ve analyzed them properly. It is a miraculous way to instantly draw from the wealth of our deepest knowledge and experience.
Topics of discovery also focus on the knowledge from the three phases of the game which include Opening, Middle game, and Endgame. Study through learning, playing, critical thinking, team work, analyzing games, and experiences sharing.
KLC Intensive Training Program help children improve their individual skills through high-quality instruction, thoughtful evaluation, and supervised game play and analysis skills.
Teaching materials are different in each week camp. We welcome any child of age 5 -17 years old and are opening for All Levels of Chess Players. During the day kids will get an opportunity to practice tournament games, enjoy our chess lectures, group chess analysis, individual chess training, and team match/blitz/puzzle contest/tournament/simultaneous with our professional chess coaches. Kids will be divided into small groups based on their level and age.
All camps teaching materials are designed to be unique and different from one another. This means that no two camps will have the same teaching materials. This allows campers to experience new and different materials each time they attend a camp, and prevents them from becoming bored with the same topics and activities.
