Welcome
I’m Ivona, Twice-Olympian Chess Player, Founder of Chess For Success LA
I teach chess to children and adults, privately and in small groups, in person and online. I also teach online chess classes to women who want to claim their power through chess.
I organize and direct chess tournaments, summer camps, afterschool programs, and chess birthday parties.
My classes strengthen strategic and creative thinking, resilience, and resourcefulness. I also teach critical thinking as part of math classes for kindergarten and first grade students.

"Chess is the ultimate tool for strategic thinking, character building and personal development. It inspires the search of the best move, the best plan and the most beautiful way forward out of the endless possibilities. It encourages the everlasting aim towards progress, always steering to ignite the flame of victory."
