Who is Chess for Everyone
Meant for?
Popoldanski termin je namenjen odraslim, ki želijo ob prijetnem druženju razgibati misli, izostriti koncentracijo in se naučiti novih šahovskih strategij. Program poteka v dveh nivojih – začetnem in nadaljevalnem, zato je primeren tako za nove igralce kot za tiste z več izkušnjami.
Carefully designed
Programmes
Programi potekajo pod vodstvom velemojstra Mateja Šebenika, večkratnega državnega prvaka in dolgoletnega člana slovenske šahovske reprezentance. Za Slovenijo je nastopil na osmih olimpijadah in sedmih evropskih prvenstvih ter osvojil zlato medaljo na ekipnem prvenstvu v Novem Sadu. Diplomiral je iz novinarstva na Fakulteti za družbene vede v Ljubljani. S trenerskim delom se ukvarja od leta 2012, med letoma 2014 in 2025 pa je vodil mladinsko reprezentanco. Pri svojem delu spodbuja napredek vsakega posameznika in veselje do igre.

"I hit the jackpot by enrolling in chess school. I have maintained and strengthened my clarity of mind, and I have made new genuine friendships in good company. The coach's approach, always encouraging and supportive, makes me feel relaxed and unburdened by the results. The chess school is a source of well-being, relaxation and just the right amount of adrenaline."

"Deciding to start chess school is like hitting the jackpot in the lottery. Brain training, fun and socialising all rolled into one and I'm really enjoying it."
