"Chess isn't just a game; it's a way of life. Its intricate strategies mirror the complexities of existence, teaching patience, foresight, and resilience. In chess, every move counts, just like in life, where decisions shape our paths. The game demands discipline and dedication, traits essential for success in any endeavour." - Arpita Das

At the start, she was quite shy in her lessons, but now, she's full of energy and enthusiasm during our sessions. Aria has developed a keen interest in chess and is always ready for a match. Her attentiveness during classes is commendable, making her a joy to teach.

My son has been learning chess here since last year. I am really pleased with the quality and dedication of all faculties.To be very frank, when my son started, he did not have any interest and linking for chess, and he used to skip classes a lot. It's all because of Shonkalan Sir and Ashmita Mam's dedication, that now he eagerly waits for his class.I strongly recommend Knight Chess Academy for those who want to learn to play chess.
I was referred by my elder sister from Ontario, so glad to find the home branch in my city.The BEST chess coaching in Kolkata, feels amazing to have found this quality in Kolkata.I am very happy to get 1st hand international standard training.
My daughter has been attending KCA for about 6 months now. It's an excellent place for kids with plethora of opportunities opening up to pursue their dreams of being a chess master. I am extremely happy with the way my kid is improving day by day and is eager to attend the classes and has developed an intense interest in this particular game.Coaches are highly skilled and childfriendly and provide attention to each and every kid and ignite imagination of children in chess and bring out the best.Here classes are lively and kids are fully involved. Several kids regularly win chess tournaments, bringing admiration,honour and praise to themselves and their Coaches and continue to bask in the glory of their success.Would like to thank Miss Asmita and her team for their patience, professionalism and determination that makes the place stands out from the rest.Excellent work KCA. Keep up the good work.
This is an amazing place for learning Chess.My 5 year old daughter absolutely loves it and I am just amazed by the amount of interest she has developed in the game in just a months time. The coaches are very well trained and focus on the students personally. I am glad we chose the Knight Chess Academy for my daughter
We are based in USA and we enrolled our 6yr old son to 1on1 virtual lessons (beginners level) with Ms Asmita in 2023. It's 2024 and our son has moved up to virtual group lessons. All Lessons are very well structured and teachers are very knowledgable.
Very nicely organised tournament, one of the best venues (Swami Vivekananda Institute of Technology, Sonarpur). Looking forward to many more such rated tournaments there. Keep up the good work 👍
