Our Mission
Our mission is to deliver world-class chess education that's both personalized and powerful. We don't just teach moves β we teach strategic thinking, emotional resilience, and a love for the game.
ChessBrains Academy was founded in 2023 by Woman International Master Vinuthna Nalluri and experienced coach Suman Kalavagunta, two lifelong players with a shared passion for shaping the minds of future champions. Their vision: build a home where kids learn to think boldly, play creatively, and grow with confidence β all through the game of chess.
Our mission is to deliver world-class chess education that's both personalized and powerful. We don't just teach moves β we teach strategic thinking, emotional resilience, and a love for the game.
We believe in quality over quantity. That means small groups, hands-on coaching, and individualized mentorship β so that every child learns at their own pace and feels heard, seen, and supported.
Vinuthna Nalluri, a Woman International Master and Asian gold medalist, has represented India across international tournaments and inspired generations of players.
Suman Kalavagunta has over 25 years of coaching experience and is known for his deep expertise in tactical and blitz chess.
Together, they created ChessBrains as a space where chess is more than a game β it's a path to confidence, focus, and fearless creativity.
Whether your child is just learning how the knight moves or preparing for national competitions, weβre here to guide them β one thoughtful move at a time.
