colored quote box

"Ashot played an important role in shaping me as a chess player - and not only in that. The level of my play had fallen back considerably when I started to train with him in 1997. I think back with a smile on my face how impatiently after the first lesson I waited for the next session. I got the impression that I had rediscovered our game. Ashot is a born trainer."

Gabriel Sargissian, twice Olympic gold medalist.
