National Men's Championship: 2018, 2019
Absolute National Championship: 2018, 2019
Panamerican 2013 in Durango: silver medal

I also have extensive experience with players of all ages and levels. Here is a list of the places where I have worked:
- UNAM's Children's Chess Program since 2012.
- Private schools.
- CEDAT School for gifted children.
- Private sports and social clubs.
- Homeschoolers
- Personal chess coach since 2005.

My peak rating is 2165 FIDE ELO, which would be equivalent to the USCF National Master level, although really my chess dedication has been focused on teaching.
I would love to help you learn chess or improve your game to reach competitive levels. It does not matter your degree of experience, your level of play, or your age.

► Overcome blockages, better understand the functioning of the other, integrate tools / techniques / methods / know-how / key phrases to approach and / or respond to the other, then start / build / maintain a relationship, all while leaving room for the essential spontaneity & naturalness

► These sessions will therefore combine two indivisible aspects:

➤ It's all about getting to know each other better (what you like or appreciate less about the other based on your past experience) by analyzing situations together in a thorough and pragmatic way. Indeed, this step is essential in order not to orient towards / "tackle" a pre-established model, but to adapt everything to everyone.

➤ In parallel, from the first session, and this is what naturally differs from a classic psychotherapy session: once the key points are better understood / assimilated, and the objectives gradually defined, tackle them, with scenarios concrete, based on your daily life / your experience, the art of seduction and the construction / possibly stabilization of love.

► These sessions could, for example, deal with how:

➤ Approach or respond to those we like then get into a relationship & build together, which implies self-confidence, avoiding the “friend zone”, taking action in one's sex life & rightly seized opportunities in his social circle.

➤ To be able to approach his interlocutor with finesse, while remaining positive, assertive & by communicating his desire, with a touch of subtlety & play

➤ Have original, light, funny & above all authentic conversations, using the emotional lift as a springboard

➤ Whether it is about “street approaches”, or in a professional or personal context, the objective being to no longer let the vagaries of fate take over & take one's life in hand by choosing action

► My mission: to help you understand, analyze then take action, while gaining self-confidence & acting in order to no longer be limited by your beliefs. Everyone should be able to take the time to choose the person they feel good with before rushing into a stable relationship.

► So, apprehension, shyness, missed opportunities, eternal “friend” status, fear of ridicule, rejection or emptiness? With this personalized coaching, the objective is to redirect the approach and acquire the technique, without ever leaving aside spontaneity. From the first contact, to the social network (tinder, bumble, social networks...) through the first meeting, until the finalization & sustainability, depending on your objective.

➤ It is about creating a certain number of opportunities with the people you like, approaching with confidence without being “friendzoned”, increasing the opportunities to meet people not without elegance / humor & seduction and without losing their authenticity

➤ The sessions will address preparation (gradually gaining confidence); the art of conversation; anti-friendzone appeal; actions and feedback to gain self-confidence (...).

➤ If the discretion and confidentiality of the coach are essential, it is therefore a matter of offering a tailor-made program / training, following an initial "diagnosis".

➤ Objective: regain confidence and attract his attention while making him want to see you again / maintain your existing relationship, understand the key elements of the other's psychology (...). As mentioned above, the practical exercises and scenarios allow to relay the theory.

➤ With simulations and scenarios, your seduction coach turns into a wingman to observe the implementation, suggest readjustments and showcase you

➤ Strengthen your charisma to unlock your potential for seduction

➤ Objective here again: to introduce concrete techniques / methods which make it possible to communicate easily, in a fluid, efficient and always natural way, while mastering situations.

➤ Non-verbal language, sexualization and avoidance of the friend zone, lifestyle, improvisation/repartee (...): the objective being to demystify these themes in theory and in practice.

Concretely, ONE SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the following session in order to overcome its blockages.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

➤Aim of these sessions? Halfway between psychoanalysis on the one hand and American-style coaching on the other, with proposals that will be made to you according to your problem and that will have to be implemented, it will be advisable to proceed as follows: understand the mechanisms of thought & induced emotion, linked to given everyday situations and which involve blockages then act concretely through pragmatic techniques adapted to your problem, and which will be quickly proposed to you to regain power over your life thanks to the methodologies & practices of behavioral coaching.

➤This is why, choosing the appropriate mediator to carry out a quality work and help oneself to advance / overcome certain mechanisms will induce the awareness necessary for this decided change. This will then allow to register in a new dynamic in the personal & professional fields.

➤To lead this change, achieve its aspirations, improve its quality of life and develop the functioning of its cognitive, emotional or behavioral sphere, a cohort of very concrete tools and concepts are at our disposal, and which involve deepening the self-exploration. This involves questioning yourself, analyzing, taking a distance, and understanding the issues / points causing suffering, before finally freeing yourself from it.

➤Examples of topics / issues regularly addressed and which are regularly supported by a dedicated specialist coach, adapted to your plan:

• Self-confidence, self-esteem and assertiveness, shyness, decision-making, assertiveness, personal development
• Reduce suffering (phobia, stress, anguish, anxiety, negative thoughts, panic, depression) and modify behaviors that are detrimental to well-being (post-traumatic stress, injuries, addictions), to better manage emotions & regain life. appeasement
• Concentration, procrastination, organization, professional efficiency, time management
•Professional/personal relationships (family, romantic, friendly, emotional, etc.) & social: from communication difficulties generating pain & frustration to the fluidity of relationships
• Professional life: tensions, pressures & conflicts, (Re) professional orientation (CV, cover letter, job interview), competitions and exams, support in a business project, teamwork

➤Each point is the subject of techniques adapted to your situation, which you will probably never have put into practice...and which have proven their worth on the people you support.

➤Thus, although involving self-exploration, coaching remains concrete in its application and bears fruit from the first sessions, since it makes people autonomous, and not dependent.

➤You will understand, specializing in life support and personal & professional projects, it is our proven skills and the positive feedback from all the people previously supported that makes us able to support you, by catalyzing the keys to your success, through a methodology and pragmatic tools, adapted to your situation.

➤And if cookie-cutter advice is not offered, that you will never be led but guided without judgment, in a process of permanent / interactive co-construction ... it is because we believe that it It is first important to analyze together, to become aware, to study jointly, to deepen, to decode your blockages and your initial problem in order to clarify your aspirations.

➤Influenced by cognitive & behavioral therapies, by Anglo-Saxon coaching instruments and the European methodology of applied psychotherapy, the approach therefore aims to seek links between current difficulties and past experiences, including repressed and unresolved conflicts and to confront difficulties which may be partially linked to inappropriate thoughts or behaviors learned / adopted often in spite of oneself.

➤ So, how does a session take place? After having identified together a problem, blockages and objectives, it is a question of analyzing them together then proposing a series of suggestions/reflections/pragmatic actions.

Concretely, a session = a reflection + solutions.

From the second session, 98% of our coaches say they felt a clear difference that influenced their daily lives* (2022 study).

A calm, structured space to think clearly and move forward.

These sessions are for people who want honest reflection, better self-leadership, and practical next steps without overthinking or pressure.

What we can work on:

- Clarity on goals, priorities, and “what matters most”
- Decision-making (when you feel stuck or torn between options)
- Building confidence & self-trust
- Habits, routines, and simple accountability systems
- Communication: boundaries, difficult conversations, authenticity
- Social/dating dynamics, presence, and “showing up” with more ease
- Transitions (new job, new city, study stress, identity shifts)

How sessions work:

- Short check-in + define the focus for the session
- I listen closely, reflect back patterns and ask targeted questions
- We turn insights into one clear action plan (small, doable steps)
- Optional follow-up notes / accountability for the next session

Important note:
This is coaching/mentoring, not psychotherapy. If you’re dealing with severe anxiety, depression, trauma or a crisis, I strongly recommend working with a licensed professional.
