The new way of making connections
As soon as I landed in Israel, I wasted no time in rounding up folks to play chess. It started with just friends. Then, I established a chess club at Tel Aviv University, uniting students and professors over the chessboard. Next, I organized a chess networking event for Olim Hashim.The feedback from participants revealed that chess was about more than just the game — it offered a chance to connect with like-minded people.These days, I orchestrate top-tier chess events, drawing on the expertise I gained while working at World Chess. You are welcome to join the community and get updates on online and offline activities.

A training plan moving you forward
Understanding how to advance in chess can be challenging. It's not simply a matter of solving puzzles or playing more; rather, it's about identifying what aspects of the game you're missing out on.My approach is akin to coaching, guiding you through the intricacies of the game and offering practical, tailored training plan based on your games analysis and personality traits.
