Budapest
Hungary has a legendary chess tradition. Budapest is the city that gave the world the Polgár sisters. Chess is woven into the culture here in a way it simply isn't in most European capitals.
We're planning private lessons in Budapest: the city's ruin bar scene and coffee house culture are perfect for an afternoon game. Whether you're a beginner or an intermediate player looking to sharpen up, this is an excellent city to do it.
Remote lessons are available now. Budapest in-person sessions will be announced via Instagram and our contact form.
