Going through enough chess online and Youtube, you run into these videos and ads all the time. They'll have dozens of partial clips of the larger courses on Youtube no matter what chess thing your searching. Now, the site and the writing seems like pretty normal circus style copywriting: the kind that gets you ramped up and thinking you have to have it. But the courses don't look bad, albeit a little expensive. Anyone have any experience with these or any input to their effectiveness?

Yeah, but I'm hoping for better than a guess. Anyone who has some experience with them.

chess is all about action and less about cognition. As long as you understand what this means any course is welcome!
