On October 19, Utrecht, Netherlands, once again became the beating heart of martial arts during the third edition of the BEST4 Seminar. Led by martial arts legends Semmy Schilt, Ernesto Hoost, Albert Kraus and Andy Souwer, the event once again grew into an impressive international training day filled with knowledge, intensity and inspiration.
At Sporthallen De Witte in De Bilt, Netherlands, more than 130 participants gathered from the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Italy, England, Romania and even Sint Maarten. Fighters of different levels travelled to the Netherlands with one clear goal: to learn from the very best and continue developing themselves.
Technique, experience and growth took center stage during two intensive 90-minute training sessions, where participants were introduced to different styles, training methods and insights from the absolute top of the martial arts world. The energy in the venue was palpable from the very first moment and once again highlighted why the BEST4 Seminar has grown into a leading event.
This edition gained even more prestige with the presence of special guest Gradus Kraus. Gradus, the son of Albert Kraus, joined the team during the seminar and led the warm-up with the accompanying footwork drills. The talented boxer is currently making a strong name for himself in the boxing world and has already shown exceptional qualities with an impressive 10-0 record. His contribution added an extra dimension to this edition and left a strong impression on those in attendance. All signs point to a future champion.
After the seminar, there was plenty of opportunity to meet the trainers, take photos, collect autographs and reflect on an inspiring day. This made the third edition not only a sporting experience, but also an event where passion, knowledge sharing and international connection came together.
With over 130 attendees from across the globe and a program led by absolute greats of the martial arts world, the BEST4 Seminar can look back on yet another highly successful edition. Expectations for the next edition are already high.
