KARATE RETREAT WITH SOPHIA BOUDERBANE
Train with karate champion Sophia Bouderbane in an exclusive 4-day retreat by the Atlantic Ocean in Morocco.
Overview
For more than two decades, Sophia Bouderbane has dedicated her life to karate at the highest level. A multiple-time European champion and athlete, she also runs training camps in France and abroad, helping practitioners of all levels develop not only their technical skills but also the mindset, discipline and confidence that karate teaches beyond the dojo. After being the victim of a severe medical error, Sophia made an unexpected return to high-level competition in just two years. This experience deeply shaped her approach to resilience, mental health and sustainable performance, principles she now shares to help others grow both on and off the tatami. Known for her energy, precision and ability to make every participant feel supported, Sophia creates an environment where everyone can progress, regardless of experience. Whether you're an experienced practitioner or simply looking to deepen your understanding of karate, this is a rare opportunity to learn from one of Europe's leading figures in an intimate setting.

BJJ TOP EXPERIENCE
I assisted with my partner to the seminar session with Cassio and Mayssa. The spot is amazing, giving you the opportunity of training sorrounded by nature, and learning from world tittle professor. The group is small, which allow you to interact and really enjoy the experience. I 100% recommend it.

Great experience at kimura camp in Ibiza!
I attended the BJJ seminar by Kimura Camp in Ibiza in June 2024 and it was great. The villa was stunning, with a tatami by the pool and excellent amenities like a pool and mini soccer field. The meals prepared by the chef were delicious and nutritious. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. Overall, a perfect blend of intensive training and relaxation in a beautiful setting. Highly recommended!
