"Children should see an example!" Academy teachers talk about Sergey Karjakin master class

Natalia Lobko noted that the young Academy preschoolers are already ready to start the school year.

"A wonderful celebration was provided for all of our students. They were very happy to see us, and we were happy to see them. We missed them very much, and we are impatiently waiting for them. They are waiting for our classes. We have prepared a lot of interesting things for them. The celebration was magnificent, their favorite characters are here - Three Cats. There was face painting for the children, various master classes. The children are absolutely delighted," Natalia said.

Alina Gafiyatullina explained why events like this are so important for children.

"I think that our students and those who will study with us in the future are very fortunate children, because these magnificent holidays are always organized for them. We have already prepared for the second year of training according to our unique program," Alina said.

Alina also assessed the importance of the master class of Russian Grandmaster Sergey Karjakin for young athletes.

"I think it’s great when children are introduced to outstanding people like that. And when they tell us how they achieved their goals, how they became famous, that it’s really hard work, they give advice to our young children, young athletes. And they should see an example, a good example. I think that many will want to at least try to play chess and see what kind of game it is. And Natalya and I, I think, will also bring something of it into our classes," she said.

On September 1, the Martial Arts Academy hosted the Day of Knowledge. An entertainment program was prepared for the guests, and Sergey Karyakin held a master class in chess.
