Feel the Chess: our new podcast series is online

Eight short episodes on chess for blind and visually impaired players, within our Erasmus+ project Invisible Move.

Chess is a game of the mind. It is about thinking, planning and feeling, not about seeing. In our new series "Feel the Chess" we take you through the world of chess for blind and visually impaired players in 8 short episodes: from exploring the tactile chessboard to the starting position, castling and the first steps in strategy.

In episode 1 you discover why chess is such a special game for blind and visually impaired players, how it strengthens memory, imagination and self-confidence, and you get to know inspiring top players such as Darpan Inani, Zsuzsanna Verőci and Sergej Smirnov.

The series is part of our Erasmus+ project "Invisible Move", which aims to make chess accessible to everyone. Watch the full series on YouTube and subscribe so you do not miss an episode.
