This course is designed to be a comprehensive, step by step course, where each level builds off of the last one and includes exercises and action items you need to complete before moving on…

This isn’t just some data dump of information, instead you’ll be applying what you learn each step of the way which will immediately impact the decisions you make in your games. 

And even if you tried to find similar information online, you’d have to sift through years of blog posts and videos that can easily lead to overwhelm or wasted time because it’s not organized into a step by step process – And wouldn’t include any of the exercises or action items.

This is my first course that covers every phase of the game. My goal was to create a comprehensive course that anyone can use without needing to buy 15 different courses all over the place. 

It’s super comprehensive, but also cuts out all the fluff so you don’t get overwhelmed, and gradually baby steps you into more complicated principles and strategies as you build confidence and progress your way through the course curriculum.

Breaking 1500 is for ANYONE who wants to improve their chess skills and play chess at the highest level. 

If you’re just starting out, this course will teach you the fundamental principles of chess so you can stop blundering and start winning more games.

If you’ve reached the 800-1000 level, this course will teach you the tactics to master the middlegame and help you break through your plateau to reach the 1500+ level faster.

And even if you’re a 1500+ player, this course will help you fill in the gaps, uncover blindspots, and give you those 1% improvements to keep climbing the ratings ladder and play chess at the highest level.

After purchasing you will receive an email that includes login details and a link to sign into a private members area that houses all the videos. 

There you will also find the schedule for all the LIVE group coaching calls, and be able to directly join the call and access the past recordings inside your members area.

Breaking 1500 is a self-paced online course, so you can go through the lessons at any time that is convenient for you, and because you get lifetime access when you join, you don’t need to worry about your schedule getting busy. 

The bonus LIVE group coaching calls will take place on the first Thursday of the month at 8pm EST, but even if you can’t attend one of the calls, you’ll be able to ask questions inside the members area and I’ll make sure to answer them in the call recordings.

Yes! I’ve included a full members area with an activity feed and messaging platform so you can interact with your fellow players, ask questions, and celebrate wins together! 🙂 

Once enrolled, you will have lifetime access to the Breaking 1500 videos. 

I’ve created a custom learning platform on our own server so that you’ll never lose access to the training videos and bonus content. (As well as any future materials I may add to the course down the road)

The honest answer is: It depends! 

There are a lot of factors that go into how soon you’ll hit the 1500 ELO rating, like how much experience you have before joining the course and how often you play.

But if you have a solid grasp of the fundamentals, and apply what you learn in this course, there’s a good chance you can hit 1500 within the next 3 months!

(And when you do, I’d love a testimonial! ☺️)
