The sea capital of Varna will once again host meetings between elite fighting stars and Bulgarian and foreign combat sports competitors in December when the last training camp of the year will be held by the Professional League of the Kyokushin World Union (KWU).
Accommodation and training costs of the participants are covered by the organizer. The master classes will take place in one of the best sports complexes in Varna – the prestigious sports center “SENSHI Gym” in the period between December 1st and 4th.
The participants will once again have the opportunity to train side by side with some of the biggest luminaries in professional kickboxing and combat sports, who will join as instructors, teaching exquisite fighting techniques, and skills to train the mind and body. Among them will be the legendary names in combat sports Sam Greco and Nicholas Pettas. Greco is an Australian fighter who won the national heavyweight title five years in a row. The full-contact karateka was a regular participant in the K-1 Grand Prix competitions. He defeated names like Branko Cikatić, Ernesto Hoost, Mike Bernardo, Stefan Leko, and Ray Sefo.
Nicholas Pettas is a Danish heavyweight kickboxer. He mainly competes in K-1, winning the Japan Grand Prix in 2001. His impressive style and spectacular low kicks make the Kyokushin karateka one of the most legendary fighters. Among his defeated opponents are names like Musashi, Gökhan Saki, Nobu Hayashi, and Petar Varga.
This time, the training camp participants again will receive valuable advice and knowledge to improve their fighting techniques first-hand from the three-time and four-time K1 World Heavyweight Champions Peter Aerts, Semmy Schilt, and Ernesto Hoost, as well as the Dutch great and “K-1 Max” champion Albert Kraus.
