Woman Chess Grandmaster,
commentator, streamer and content creator. I will get you from 0 to 2000 🚀

Let's meet & connect! 👋
This chess camp is a fantastic opportunity to meet other players, train together, and get ready for a rated tournament (which might be your first!). It's a great way to learn a lot about chess and improve your game. You'll be inspired by GMs and some of the best coaches in the country.
The camp is happening at the same time as the ALTO Open. This means you can use what you learn right away and even have your coach, WGM Dina Belenkaya, there to help you during the tournament.
Playing in the tournament is highly recommended to help you learn, but it's not required to come to the camp. Our main goal is to provide a great learning experience for everyone, no matter their skill level.
Our Special Guests 😎
Join WGM Dina Belenkaya and her guest lectors – experienced coaches, grandmasters and best chess educators in the country.
