Learn Chess at Your Own Pace
When it comes to getting better at anything, especially chess, the most important thing is that you enjoy doing it in the first place. As you play, you will inevitably face frustration due to stronger opponents, performance plateaus, or limitations with your current knowledge. This means you are ready to take the next step.
Today, there are more tools than ever to help you grow as a player. Free resources are a great starting point, but if you’re serious about reaching your goals faster, investing in lessons or structured courses can make a big difference. I’ve worked hard to create resources that are both accessible and effective, no matter what your goals in chess may be.
The best place to begin is on YouTube, where I’ve built several series focused on explaining the key ideas and motifs behind specific openings. For those looking to elevate their game further, I also offer a range of premium courses which you can explore below.
Free Opening Courses on YouTube
On the chessbrah YouTube channel, you will find an extensive catalogue of free opening courses, presented in a speedrun format where I climb from 400 to 2500 ELO using the same opening system.
This unique approach allows you to learn an opening through practical play - observing clear development patterns, typical middlegame plans, and precise moves against common opening responses. In my opinion, this is the best way to start learning. With a wide range of openings covered over the years, you are guaranteed to find one that fits your style.
Aman showcases the Philidor Defense, a simple yet effective opening system that you can play with White and Black.
Aman discusses and demonstrates typical ideas and plans in the King’s Indian opening, playable with both colours.
Aman shows you how to play the very popular Sicilian Taimanov against e4.
Aman teaches you everything you need to know about the aggressive Stonewall setup.

In addition to these free resources, I've also developed a number of premium courses designed for players who want to elevate their game further. You can explore these courses below.
