Atanas Bozhilov, Dragomir Petrov, and Mihail Velchovski are among the Bulgarian kickboxing stars who have included the camp in their preparation for the major upcoming challenge – SENSHI 31 Gladiators. Petrov is among the main names featured in the Grand Prix tournament in the 70 kg division, while Velchovski is listed as a reserve for the tournament, scheduled for May 30 in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. Bozhilov will defend national pride in a super fight against a renowned English opponent at the arena of the Ancient Theatre of Plovdiv.

The European SENSHI champion in the 75 kg category, Samo Petje (Slovenia), and fighter Wiktor Kolaja (Poland), both contenders for the SENSHI Grand Prix title, were also among the invited athletes in the masterclass led by Albert Kraus and Andy Souwer.

The Dutch fighting legends shared elements of their rich championship style with the participants. During the camp, effective striking combinations and techniques were demonstrated, while the instructors dedicated individual time to each fighter, focusing on correcting weaknesses and improving speed and execution.
