Instructors

Priit Mihkelson

3rd Degree Black Belt

For 25 years, Priit Mihkelson has been deeply involved in martial arts, with a focus on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, grappling, and MMA. Through his extensive experience and expertise, he has developed a distinct and highly effective training approach called "Functionalistic Minimalism". Currently coaching at Estum Jiu-Jitsu in Tallinn, Estonia, Priit's training philosophy is centered around fundamental postures and movements that are essential for all grapplers and MMA fighters to know. Priit's name has become synonymous with defense, and his innovative defensive concepts have had a profound impact on the sport.

Liló Asensi

3rd Degree Black Belt

Lilo is from Spain and for the past several years she has been teaching at Artesano Fight Sport Academy in Hamburg, Germany. An experienced competitor with many medals at high level tournaments, she is an amazing BJJ instructor and currently is active on the competition scene as a referee. Lilo is the first female to earn a BJJ Black Belt in Spain.

Robert Nestor

Founder and head coach at BJJ Akademie Berlin

Robert is a black belt under Nick Brooks. He is a full-time instructor, a competitor, and has a great understanding of Jiu Jitsu fundamentals. The teaching approach he uses is particularly advantageous for beginners.

Brian O'dea

Yoga

Brian O’Dea teaches what he describes as a “gooey-yet-firm-mid-tempo-flow” designed to bring the class to a simmer before melting into deeper stretches. He aims to create a fun classroom environment for all skill levels to explore the mind-body connection through the breath, movement, and stillness of yoga. Brian started yoga as a New Year’s resolution way back in 2010, somehow actually stuck with it, and received his 200-RYT certification in 2020. In his spare time, he enjoys traveling, writing, fighting (in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu), and then writing about said traveling and fighting when he returns home.

  1. Adi Toth

    One of the best camps I’ve ever been to. Hotel facilities, location, extra activities and last but not least top level coaches.
    Everything 5*

  2. Marek Mydla

    It was my first camp and i had a great time. Location was perfect and hotel with facilities. Coaches did great job with seminars and everyone could fill their time with things they wanted to do.

  3. Kika

    Amazing professors! The hotel is very good value for money, you wouldn’t be able to get that in another place in Europe for that value. The buffet is huge and there is different kinds of food for everyone. SPA is great for after training, it is very big as well, I don’t think I managed to try everything. The organizers did a very well job with all the extra activities and the excursions, my favorite was the hot springs excursion! 🙂 I recommend it to everyone!

  4. Robert

    This is what a camp is supposed to look like!!!!

  5. Rhys Peters

    This camp was fantastic. I have never done one before and am a BJJ beginner. The instruction was excellent and there was a superb atmosphere between students of varying grades and experience from all over the world. There were gi and no-gi seminars plus plenty of open mat time.

    If you have never visited Bulgaria before, the country offers superb value for money for any traveller and this was reflected in the hotel, where the luxury spa, well equipped gym and top class food were provided all in the price.

    I also took part in this camp along with my non-training partner, who was made to feel completely welcome and included in everything off the mat – again at a very good value price. This was echoed by other participants who had brought partners and even children with them.

    This camp was also superbly organised, both when we were there and leading up to our arrival.

    This was a wonderful way to train and travel. We will absolutely return and wholeheartedly recommend.

  6. Thomas van der Werf

    My first ever bjj camp. Absolutely amazing! I went with my wife and kids and enjoyed the bjj and the slopes plus many other activities. No one was bored for even a minute. Will do my best to return in 2023

  9. McGee

    My first BJJ Camp and it was absolutely amazing. A lot of JiuJitsu, a lot of positive people. The organization of the seminars, the activities and everything else was absolutely on point. I will definitely come back.

  10. Leah

    I have been to quite a lot of camps, but this one was special! The scenery, the food, the rooms and the Jiu-Jitsu. Everything was of high quality. And it was cool to meet the people, everybody had positive vibes

  11. Dobri

    Attended the camp in 2022, and it was an amazing experience! Met some awesome people and great instructors. The activities and the food made this retreat one of a lifetime journey.

  12. Mychelle Dean

    Another absolute cracker, even better than last year. Superb lineup of coaches, an incredibly welcoming camp and some added events this year to make it even more fun filled and enjoyable. Looking forward to making next year 3 in a row.
