Chess sections that take children 10

More on this list

These sections are marked for children because the pages about them say so. Champion children’s chess club on Abay Avenue teaches ages five to seventeen, with groups sorted by rank category from beginners upwards, while Favorit at the Atakent grounds and Shatranj Chess School, whose head office is in the Arai complex on Aimanov Street, both take children from five. Chess Empire describes children’s groups at its branches, among them Gagarin Park and Zhandosova 305, where the coaches speak Kazakh.

World of Chess on Gagarin Avenue runs children’s groups next to its professional class. AS Group Kids, an academy of chess and mental arithmetic, has offices on Gagarin Avenue and Markova Street, known only from a business directory, so both stay unconfirmed. The Alatau Creative Hub, a city library in the Nurkent microdistrict, listed chess among its free summer circles for children in 2026, with sign-up at the library.
