Common Questions About Chess Classes & Clubs in Seattle

These are the questions people most often ask about chess classes & clubs in Seattle — answers apply city-wide, not just to this class.

Are chess classes and clubs in Seattle free?

Yes — Westlake Park's Thursday lessons with the Seattle Chess School, the Center for Active Living's club, the Pioneer Square '(A Very Casual) Chess Club' and the White Center Library club are all free. Checkmate & Chill at Big Time Brewery is paid.

What level do I need to be to join a chess club in Seattle?

None. Every option here explicitly welcomes beginners; Checkmate & Chill is pitched at beginner level, and the Pioneer Square club invites people who 'want to learn to play.'

How much do private chess lessons cost in Seattle?

Checkmate & Chill's pricing is on its Airbnb experience page; free options are strong in Seattle, so many players never pay.

Where do adult chess players meet in Seattle?

Big Time Brewery in the U-District (weekly), Westlake Park (Thursdays), the Center for Active Living in West Seattle (Tuesdays), Friend Museum in Pioneer Square (one Sunday a month) and White Center Library (weekly).

Can I play rated tournaments after taking classes in Seattle?

Seattle Chess School partners run tournaments at Westlake Park on August Saturdays — a friendly way to try rated play.
