IchessU Sample lesson  - these lessons are actual sample lessons from IchessU, and we recorded them and edited each lesson so as to give you an example of what it is like to study at IchessU. Each week, we pick a different lesson, usually a different instructor, and try to cover a different topic. These are not complete lessons, but overviews - without the chess board and IchessU coaching interface, you won't get the same experience, but if you want to see what it is like to study at IchessU, then watch our Sample lessons.
Chess Opening of the Week - A quick look at chess opening theory, mostly for fun and historical interest, we make each chess opening, or opening variation fun. If you play or want to learn an opening, it is much more interesting to know the origin and development of the moves, from the ancient Ruy Lopez to the modernistic Pterodactyl.
