I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the fourth Ultimate Karate Fighters Boot Camp, and to thank you all for accepting this challenge.

This event is delivered in partnership with the University of Kent. I am sure you will agree the Canterbury campus is not only a great venue, but also a beautiful place to visit.

The main objective behind this Boot Camp is to provide a program of elite training, covering a wide range of aspects relating to kumite and preparing for major competitions.

The Boot Camp will give attendees a firm idea as to what it takes to succeed, and provide the necessary training tools and ideas to develop their own progression within this sport.

All the fitness trainers selected to participate in this event are specialists within their field. While on the camp all athletes will have the opportunity to participate in a range of activities including Sprint Training, Exercising to Music and Cross Fit.

The inclusion of Elisa Au Fonseca and Alexandre Biamonti was indeed an easy choice. These are two athletes/trainers that I have admired for a very long time, and we will all have the pleasure and opportunity to share in their knowledge.

The goal of The Ultimate Karate Fighters Boot Camp is simple:

‘Elite quality athletes, training with elite quality trainers producing elite results.’

I look forward to seeing you, and having a great time with you in Canterbury.

Take care,Dr. Wayne Otto OBE
