Puzzle with Emilia
Join the party, competition, and giveaways!
Speed Up! Party is an event for ALL. We have two categories, one for speed puzzlers and another for casual puzzlers. Both categories have giveaways. You choose which ones you want to participate in —you can take part in all of them!
In the speed puzzler's category, we will compete with a chosen 500 piece puzzle. The puzzle is Lost In The Garden by Galison. You can do it anytime between the 21st of November and the 20th of December 2024. This category's giveaway prize is a private 60-minute speed puzzling coaching session, including a video analysis.
The category for casual puzzlers is more about puzzling along. We have chosen a puzzle brand for this category, and you can do as many puzzles as you wish from this brand. The brand is Pomegranate. The giveaway prize in the casual puzzler's category is a custom puzzle made of Vili's photograph.
As in any party, we recommend sharing! You can ask if anyone in your local puzzle community has the chosen competition puzzle to borrow. The same applies to Pomegranate puzzles for the casual puzzler's category. You can also purchase puzzles for yourself. If you wish to support us at the same time, and available in your country, you can buy via links on our puzzle product pages below.
Oh, and you can share online with the hashtag #speedupparty and tag us @puzzlewithemilia so we can share too!
With love, Emilia, Daniel & Vili

Interested in speed puzzling coaching?
This party is named after our Speed Up! group coaching program and private coaching services. We would love to have you onboard. Here's what one of our coachees is saying:
"Before I started working with Emilia, I hadn't noticed any improvement in weeks. I simply could not figure out how to get to the next level. I was really doubting myself and couldn't understand how everyone else could be so much better than me. I sent her one puzzle recording, and her feedback immediately led to a new personal record.
In only one month of working with Emilia, I've slashed all my puzzle times by 25-35%! As you can imagine, my confidence has grown by leaps and bounds. Among other things, Emilia's helped me with space management, quickly switching to new sections when I start to slow down, not hesitating to use trial and error when appropriate, and increasing my overall speed by finding the right motivation.
Emilia has exactly the right background and approach to coach speed puzzlers. I fully recommend you sign up with her!"
The Speed Up! group coaching program is under our YouTube channel memberships. We have different membership levels. ASPIRE level is most recommended. It includes full access to all previous and upcoming coaching sessions, puzzle short video demonstrations, competition predictions, a group chat with other members, and much more. Our sponsor(s) can offer discounts for our ASPIRE and PRO level members.
Currently, one of our active sponsors is Speedpuzzle.eu (aka Michelle's Shop who is also an organiser of Euro Jigsaw Jam competitions).
The Speed Up! private coaching services can be found in our online shop. We offer coaching sessions and video analyses for individuals, pairs, and teams. Our shop is available in most markets - please let us know if you cannot find your country or currency from the list and we will get our business registered in your location as soon as possible. We are happy to help if you have any questions before purchasing.
