Magnus Carlsen publishes 1st free video course on Chessable, fresh from his victory in The Magnus Carlsen Invitational, is back with another great gift to chess fans. The World Champion, 29, has released his first interactive video lesson on Chessable – and it’s free.

The Magnus Touch – Free Strategy Lesson is a mini-training course based around one of the Norwegian’s most memorable games – his 2015 masterpiece against Li Chao. In it, Carlsen, in conversation with Chessable’s IM John Bartholomew, guides you through the game move-by-move in a highly instructive endgame.

Then Chessable’s new MoveTrainer 2.0 system kicks in and tests you on what you’ve learned with a series of problems based on the game. In total there’s 27 minutes of free video with Carlsen, 2,600 words of instruction and 12 trainable variations.  And there’s more to come.

The Magnus Touch: Free Strategy Lesson is a fascinating journey into the mind of the world’s greatest chess player AND it is a taster of his upcoming landmark The Magnus Touch course.
Chessable has scheduled its big Magnus Carlsen course launch for May 18. Look forward to it – but until then, try this out.
