At the Summit School of Chess, we are thrilled about the recent advancements in chess and cognitive skills/training. CogniFit’s new online chess platform exemplifies how technology can enhance this timeless game. As National Master Jesse Cohen and head coach, I see firsthand how chess positively impacts cognitive development, especially in young learners around the Greater Denver Area. Chess isn’t just a game; it’s a way to build skills that go far beyond the chessboard.
