Kapil Lohana

I am an International rated player of chess and National Instructor from India. I have won many events at Vidarbha Level during 2003 – 2005. After a successful performance at district, state, national & international level, I guided budding champions of Yavatmal district to improve in chess. My first coaching camp was held at BITS PILANI Institute, Rajasthan in the year 2005. In 2006, I decided to move to Pune to pursue my dream in chess. I started my journey in Pune by winning the most prestigious event known as “Buddhibal Jallosh” in the same year and joined Symbiosis Chess School to guide students for a diploma in chess. I worked in symbiosis school for 3 Years. I continued sharing my knowledge to budding champions from the city of Pune and soon my students started winning championships at various levels. I became one of the best chess coaches in Pune. I realized that the role of a coach is very important in the improvement of every player. As a result in the year 2013, I decided to start an organization with the name of 'Victorious Chess Academy' to provide the platform for all chess enthusiasts to pursue their dream in chess. I visited South Africa for World Youth Chess Championship 2014 as coach of one of my pupils where he passed the trainers exam conducted by FIDE (World Chess Federation) to achieve the title of National Instructor (NI) from India. I am also a state arbiter (SA) from Maharashtra.
I truly believe, atmosphere for the sport, quality of teaching and financial aspect plays an important role in the life of every sportsperson.
Currently I have 9 branches in Pune. Not only that, my academy (Victorious Chess Academy) has students from 12 countries around the globe.
