Work One-on-One With Me.

Get personalized, individual guidance to diagnose weaknesses, build conceptualization skills, and understand your own Chess brain.

Sometimes to get the best results from our training we need guidance.

The Don't Move Coaching program is your opportunity for focused, one-on-one time with me to massively improve your Chess conceptualization and strengthen your Chess brain.

Important Note #1 — I Only Work with Adults.

The adult improver's brain requires a completely different approach to that of a child. There are plenty of coaches for children. I work exclusively with adults.

Important Note #2 — I Am Not a Standard Chess Coach.

If you're looking for someone to help you learn an opening, or drill your tactics, or analyze your games — I'm not that guy. There are thousands of people more qualified than me to coach you on those points.

Chess is a game of knowledge and muscle. Every other coach focuses on the knowledge of Chess. I'll build your mental muscles so you can use what you know. And that has incredible impacts:

  • Stop the "silly" blunders that are holding you back
  • Calculate with clarity and confidence
  • Better handle the stress of time trouble and tournament play
  • Remember the games you play and analyze them in your head
  • Play blindfold Chess

My goal for the past half-decade has been to become the world's leading expert on Chess visualization and conceptualization. And I'm available to guide you through your own journey.

One-on-one conceptualization coaching can make a huge difference to your game. Personalized, focused support helps you break plateaus and make progress in your conceptualization much more efficiently than when you go it alone.

There's only so precise I can be in my guidance in email and courses, but one-on-one we can identify exactly what you need.

If you'd like to achieve any of the following, conceptualization coaching is for you:

  • Greatly reduce "silly" blunders in games, especially when under pressure.
  • Avoid calculation errors by strengthening your mental clarity and speed.
  • Play full games of blindfold Chess, perhaps even more than one at a time.
  • Read Chess books without needing a board beside you.
  • Build a conceptualization model that works perfectly for you and your unique brain.

All of these goals translate to more fun, fewer mistakes, faster improvement, and better Chess.

What some of my students had to say.

"Aiden's coaching addressed the real underlying weaknesses in my chess, being the limit of my brain's calculation ability, and my thought patterns during a chess game. In only a few months of working with him I experienced a thirty percentile jump in my online rapid rating!"

"It's been really incredible for me. I was surprised with the coaching how much of it was tailored towards me. Aiden meets you where you are, figures out what you need, then goes from there. After a few lessons with Aiden, I went to a tournament and beat two players rated 400 points above me."

"In the last couple of months my ability to see further ahead has improved significantly. I can evaluate positions after quite a few moves while making far fewer mistakes than before. Aiden obviously cares about finding the best approach based on my individual way of thinking rather than just using generic techniques."

"Nobody else that I know of has taken the time to dive deep into learning and cognition enough to offer meaningful advice like yours, and very few of the instructors I've worked with over the years demonstrate the sort of insight into cognition that you've already shown during our calls."
