086 She’s a rock star of chess accomlishments. WIM Natasha Regan has represented England in two chess Olympiads.  She’s co-authored two award-winning chess books with GM Matthew Sadler. And, in recent years, Natasha has co-created three Chessable courses on strategy.

Even outside of chess, Natasha impresses.

She earned a degree in mathematics from Cambridge University, has had a career as a professional actuary, and is an accomplished Go player.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Three strategies to fight back against the effects of aging on your chess.
  • Why counterattacking is often better (and smarter) than pure defense.
  • How learning to recognize intermediate moves can help you become an overall better chess player.
