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!

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.

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.

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.

I offer gentle, dynamic or hybrid yoga classes, online, at home or in a location agreed upon together, according to your preferences and objectives.

The sessions can focus on relaxation, recovery, and calming, or conversely, on mobility, tone, stability, and energy. I teach both Yin and Yang practices, as well as formats that blend the two in a single session to offer a more complete and balanced experience.

I also incorporate breathing exercises and, where appropriate, elements of meditation, in order to work on the body, breath, and quality of presence in a single class. My approach remains clear, progressive, and accessible, regardless of your level.

Each session is tailored to your body type, experience, current fitness level, and goals. I can offer gentler or more challenging variations, without performance pressure, with the aim of building a beneficial, sustainable, and realistic practice.

The courses can be general or geared towards a particular need: stress management, mobility, recovery, refocusing, getting back into motion, better body awareness or simply the need to take quality time for oneself.
