About us

This group is for anyone who has ever been curious about the strange, high-energy world of chess boxing. We are bringing together people who want to learn the ropes of this hybrid sport in a relaxed, low-pressure environment. Whether you are a casual chess player who wants to get a workout in, or someone who loves boxing but wants to sharpen your tactical thinking under pressure, you will find a place here.

The goal is to demystify the sport and have some fun while we are at it. We will be meeting up to practice alternating rounds of chess and light sparring, focusing on staying calm while your heart rate is elevated. You do not need to be a grandmaster or a pro fighter to join us; just bring a curious attitude and a willingness to try something new. We are mostly interested in building a friendly community of people who enjoy the challenge of balancing brain and brawn.
