About MarinChess

Sharing the joy of chess with the next generation.

Inspired by their own after-school chess experiences growing up, Leonardo Maso, Stanley Wong, and Henry Lien created MarinChess to share the joy of chess and inspire the next generation of thinkers.

Our philosophy

Chess should be within reach of every student

At MarinChess, we believe that everyone should have access to the benefits of chess. That's why we strive to make our programs and events accessible to all members of our community.

We also value innovation and are constantly exploring new ways to teach and promote the game of chess. Our experienced coaches and instructors use a variety of teaching methods and resources to ensure that our students have a rewarding and enjoyable experience.
