Ever since its inception, the Royal Chess Academy has been the indisputable cradle of chess fun and instruction through its unique instructional techniques and methods. Unlike other academies, for instance, we value the original over the analyzed, the beautiful over the memorized, and the novelty over the dogma. And while we are adherent to the universal tenets of great play, we take every care to ensure the romantic beauty of chess isn’t lost in instructional lore… In this way, players are given the greatest chance to hone their individual styles, and develop them to their highest finesse.
Operant in several schools, homes and organizations, the RCA is a world class academy that more than delivers on its quality promise, and has a long list of happy clients and institutions in its wake. Of course, part of that success is creditable to the academy’s ever-growing international affiliations which see to it that we are well resourced and informed on chess developments and news globally.
RCA’s highly dedicated team of passionate and veteran instructors also ensures a holistic approach to the training process, sinking in each trainee, as viable, the game’s application in real life, business and government.
