Hi, my name is Gabriel. I'm the head coach of the chess team of the National University of Mexico (UNAM) since 2010. I speak fluent English as I lived six years in Oxford, England, when I was a child and I practice it since then.

With the UNAM's team I have obtained the following titles:
National Women's Championship: 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019
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.

I am attentive to any questions you may have.
Greeting and I wish you success!

Why is pelvic mobility important?
🔆Pelvic mobility is essential to meet the simplest daily functional needs such as walking or climbing stairs. The pelvis is the center of gravity and the largest bone complex in the human body. It is an insertion point for strong muscles: they form the muscular chains that have the pelvis as an anchor point.
The shortening or overtraining of some of them, due to sports postures or gestures, can generate an imbalance in the tensegrity system of the pelvic girdle and many local and adjacent problems, from muscle decompensations, pain, health problems at a visceral level and many others. aspects that are not taken into account 🧐
✅You have to ensure that your pelvis is in a neutral position, aligned at all times and in any activity you do so that your body does not adopt wrong postures by default and avoid having problems with its mobility and consequently other derived dysfunctions, such as hernias, lower back pain. , pelvic floor problems, etc.
📌The program aims to strengthen, stretch and put into tension the muscle chains and the analytical work of the abductor, adductor, extensor and pelvitrochanter complex. All of these myofascial elements determine the pelvic position and, in doing so, create or limit the freedom of the pelvis, having repercussions on the lower and upper limbs.
🤗 Of course we are not going to leave aside the rest of the body❗️❗️😅
The training approach will be individualized, after a general and analytical body evaluation.
Enough of so many aches and pains, release the superficial and deep fascia and revitalize your energy center. 🥰

Movement is fundamental to every human being. Every single action requires the use of various muscle groups, whether consciously or unconsciously. The practice of sports is not limited to a small segment of the population; rather, it encompasses people of all ages, genders, and ethnicities who share a common goal: improving their quality of life. As a personal trainer, following an initial assessment—which includes an analysis of physical fitness and the client's specific goals—my objective is to create a customized training program tailored to the athlete's needs, aimed at both improving and maintaining muscle tone.

As a native Italian speaker with a great passion for sharing knowledge, I also offer courses for those who wish to learn the basics of the language or improve their existing skills. After a careful analysis of the student's level, I develop a study plan suited to their individual needs, focusing on the improvement of grammar, speaking, or writing. Engaging and light assignments are provided to the student to consistently stimulate their curiosity.

As a Master's student in sports science at the University of Lausanne, I have always been passionate about sports and training. Since childhood, I have participated in various sports such as football, swimming, weightlifting, calisthenics, and climbing. However, the sport I have practiced most and still practice today at a competitive level is athletics.

Thanks to my athletic and academic background, I have developed a solid understanding of training and physical conditioning. I have also had the opportunity to coach and mentor athletes. I have organized and led strength training sessions and worked as a strength and conditioning coach for national-level ultimate frisbee players. I have also played ultimate frisbee myself.

In parallel, I also had the opportunity to coach in athletics, which allowed me to gain experience in sports coaching and in adapting training to the needs of each person.

I offer personalized sports coaching sessions tailored to each individual's goals. Training can include general fitness, muscle strengthening, improving physical condition, or athletic preparation. Sessions are structured, progressive, and adapted to each person's level, from beginners to those already active. My goal is to help each client improve their physical fitness, health, and confidence through effective and motivating training.

I have been playing chess since 1985. My dad quit playing me in 1988 when he was never able to win again. Chess is the most classic strategy game of all time.

If you want to learn how to play chess I can teach you. If you are able to beat me then you graduate the class. I doubt you ever will, but I would be very happy for you if you could. My goal will be to teach you to put me out of a job.

Then you will be able to say:

"I've been waiting for you, [Kenneth]. We meet at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you I was but the learner, now I am the master."

As a beginner, you'll learn the rules of the game and great ways at which you can advance your pieces.

As an intermediate, you'll learn how to create and spot forks, pins, skewers and checkmates.

As an advanced, you'll learn strategic ways of placing your pieces. I would teach you how to utilize your knight and queen as a great combo for tactical and strategic gameplays and quick checkmates.

I offer personalized flexibility training with both passive and active stretching, strengthening exercises that require minimal equipment and are inspired by calisthenics, mobility, and acrobatics. I am a former high-performance rhythmic gymnast in France and continue to practice this sport as an amateur, in addition to dance, acrobatics, and yoga. I possess a diverse repertoire of techniques to improve your body awareness and work on your flexibility and mobility while strengthening you, from a beginner to an advanced level. I offer personalized guidance and follow-up tailored to your body, your needs, and any injuries. Working on flexibility is very important at all ages, as it contributes to better body awareness in daily life, allows you to experience new sensations, and reduces the risk of injury. I can come to your home, your center, or gym, and organize private or small group classes for all ages.

Chess is much more than a game. It is a powerful tool for developing strategic thinking, concentration, creativity, and decision-making skills that are useful both on the board and in everyday life.

In my lessons, I focus not only on teaching the rules and theory of chess, but on helping students understand the logic behind every move. We work on improving calculation, pattern recognition, positional understanding, and practical decision-making during real games. My goal is to help students think independently and confidently at the board.

Lessons are adapted to the level and goals of each student. Beginners will learn the fundamentals of the game, including piece movement, basic tactics, checkmates, and essential strategic ideas. Intermediate players will improve their tactical vision, positional play, opening understanding, and endgame technique. Advanced players will work on deep analysis, complex strategic plans, tournament preparation, and psychological aspects of competitive chess.

During the lessons we analyze games, solve instructive positions, practice tactical puzzles, and play training games with detailed feedback. I also teach students how to analyze their own games — one of the most important skills for long-term improvement.

My teaching style is structured, supportive, and interactive. I believe chess should be both intellectually challenging and enjoyable, and I always try to create an engaging learning atmosphere for my students.

I am the founder of the YesChess Chess School, where our international team currently trains around 300 students from 35 countries around the world.
