Hey Improvers! I’m NM Dane Mattson, Coach Dane. This forum is dedicated to chess improvement questions you have, either about general improvement or about specific questions you have about positions or games. I’ll be monitoring this forum along with NM Jeremy Kane and others, and we’ll do our best to help out! We also highly encourage the community to share their perspectives and thoughts - I’m sure in many cases, the community will have even better insight than we do

Have an interesting problem - either from your own game or from elsewhere - that you want to share? Post it here and challenge the community! Be sure to state which side is to move, and we encourage you to post the game information if you have it and consider a note about which rating level the problem may be good for.

The "Accomplishments and Celebrations" forum is a great way to celebrate and share your own chess achievements / progress. Are there other members of the Improvers Club that have supported your chess journey that you'd like to recognize / give a personal shoutout? Perhaps you have found someone else's journey particularly inspiring and would like to recognize them. This forum is intended to share our appreciation of other members/contributors in the Improvers Club.
I'll start by giving all of you who are reading this a warm shoutout! It's wonderful to see how supportive and encouraging this community is, and it's an honor supporting you along your chess journey.

A place to talk about how life off the board (examples include family, work, school, health, etc.) helps or hinders your chess, and, also, a place to talk about how chess can help or hinder your quality of life, self-care and wellbeing. Basically, a place to talk about chess and life.

Hi Improvers,
Have you tried playing the Fischer Random variant, also called Chess960?
If you have and you like it, you might enjoy playing in the Qualifiers this weekend.The deadline to register is Friday, June 13th at 11 am ET!
Read all about it here, and let us know if you have any questions.

Sometimes we need to laugh so we don't cry. This is a great place to post a silly blunder or something funny that happened in one of your games. Please be supportive!
Here's one from a game of mine against a GM. I just played a bad move and my GM opponent resigned. Can you spot what we both missed about the position?

Thread by: @Sebu13Similar to Game Analysis but primarily focused on showcasing games rather than specific analysis.
Share your best, worst, funniest, most boring, most unusual etc. games here! Whatever you feel is worth sharing, feel free to post it. Comments on the game, analysis, backstory etc. is optional, do it however you want to do it!

What are some ways to train in tactics that you could share?
If it's puzzles, discuss ways of solving them.
