Understand the French Defence
We are happy to invite you to our camp Understand the French Defence.
There is hardly another opening in which the positional understanding is so important. When you know the most important structures as well as positional and tactical patterns, the computer preparation of your opponent does not matter so much. Additionally, studying the French Defence improves your general chess understanding since French structures arise in different openings. Furthermore, French players have a subtle understanding of the space advantage.
In this camp, our expert team of grandmasters will provide extensive knowledge on the typical pawn structures. Additionally, the most important positional and tactical ideas will be covered.
You get 9 hours of high-level training which will provide you with the following benefits:
✅ Better understanding of the French Structures
✅ In-depth insights of the typical positional and tactical patterns in French Defence
✅ Better feeling of the connection between the opening and the middlegame
✅ Better understanding of the space advantage
✅ Better general chess understanding
