The Santa Fe Go Club mission is to:
-
- bring go to a wider audience and
- provide a welcoming community based environment where go players can meet to play in person games.
First, beginners and students of go are welcome to join us for workshops, teaching and go lessons on Saturdays from about 2 pm. at Barnes and Noble, Santa Fe Place. Stronger players are also welcome to help with teaching and guiding students through our session topics.
Second, our regular Go Meet now follows our go class at Barnes & Noble around 4 pm until the business closes at 8 pm. Here’s a chance for new and long time go players to meet and get some games in. Go’s elegant handicap system lets players of quite different strengths experience rewarding games. Please bring your own go board and stones if you can.
We are now on Meetup where you can check out our events or join our Meetup group.
Visitors please note that at 7,200 ft, we’re the highest go club in the US so check us out to see if altitude affects your game!
If Go is new to you, see What Is Go – you could learn to play in 15-20 mins. There are many resources on the web for tutorials and background information, see Resources below. You can also play on line against AI or other human players on the popular Go Servers also shown below. Though we’d rather you played at the club!

“Let’s face it: you need a little bit of humility to play a good game of go – that’s really hard for [many of us]. You need a lot of patience – that’s really hard for [many of us].”
