About Nomad Chess Club

Hi, I’m Dani, the founder of Nomad Chess Club. For the past 7-8 years, I’ve been slowly traveling around full-time, teaching and learning new skills along the way.

My love for chess started in Berlin’s vibrant cafés (thanks, Artur!). Ever since, I’ve been hooked. Everywhere I was traveling to, I looked forward to play games with strangers and connect through chess.

Some of those experiences made me realize how much a great coach can help adult learners improve their game, so I decided to combine my passion for chess with my nomadic lifestyle. Now, I offer fun, beginner-friendly chess lessons and workshops in some of my favorite spots around the world.

Through my work in technology, innovation, and knowledge management—as well as workshop design—I’ve learned how to create engaging, structured experiences that prioritize growth and fun. These skills translate directly into our chess lessons, ensuring they’re clear, personalized, and enjoyable.

This isn’t just about teaching; it’s about building something bigger: a global community of chess enthusiasts who want to grow, share, and connect across borders. Join us, and let’s make chess more accessible, fun, and rewarding for everyone!
