BJJ Bayern Camp - October 2027

Ich bin seit vielen Jahren bei den BJJ Intensive Camps dabei. Von Italien und Kroatien über Florida bis zum Camp in Bayern. Was mich jedes Mal überzeugt, ist die außergewöhnlich hohe Qualität der Coaches: technisch präzise, didaktisch stark und immer mit echtem Praxisbezug. Hier werden nicht nur Techniken, sondern vor allem Details und Konzepte vermittelt, die im Sparring und im Wettkampf wirklich funktionieren. Mindestens genauso besonders ist die internationale Community. Man trainiert intensiv, hat harte und faire Runden und verbringt auch abseits der Matte eine richtig gute Zeit miteinander. Der „Spirklhof“ bietet dafür den perfekten Rahmen: Trainingshalle, Zimmer und Restaurant unter einem Dach, gutes Essen, kurze Wege und eine ruhige Lage. Fachlich, menschlich und beim Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis gehören diese Camps für mich zum Besten, was man im BJJ erleben kann.

My first BJJ intensive Camp was nine years ago, and since then I have made it a tradition to attend at least one camp every year. Last year, I joined both the Lignano Camp and the Bavaria Camp and I'm excited to do the same again this year. In the beginning I attended with a few friends from different gyms, but over the years many of my own BJJ students have started coming along as well. Every one of them has had a great experience and enjoyed the camp tremendously. What I appreciate most is the atmosphere. The camps bring together friendly and motivated people from all over the world, creating a welcoming environment both on and off the mats. Another great advantage is the variety of training options. In most time slots, you can choose between different disciplines, such as BJJ Gi, NoGi, Judo or even sometimes striking classes, allowing everyone to tailor the experience to their own interests. The Bavaria Camp is hosted at a great hotel. One of the highlights is definitely the food – so you never have to worry about being hungry between training sessions. After all these years, I still look forward to every camp, and I can highly recommend the experience to anyone who wants to improve their skills, meet great people, and enjoy an unforgettable week of training.

I have been attending these camps for well over a decade, dating back to the early camps organized by Michael Hocknius. Over the years, I have had the privilege of seeing the idea evolve and grow through the efforts of Martin Guggi, Renato Migliaccio, and many other friends and instructors who have helped shape what BJJ Intensive Camps are today. What has always impressed me is how the camps keep getting better. Every detail is so thoughtfully organized that you can completely free your mind from everyday concerns and focus on what really matters: learning, training, and enjoying Jiu-Jitsu. For me, these camps are much more than just a place to train. They are where I make some of my biggest leaps in skill, thanks to the outstanding workshops and world-class instruction. But just as importantly, they are where I reconnect with friends from all over Europe, strengthen old friendships, and build new ones. Over the years, attending these camps has become a tradition not only for me, but also for many students of the Chris Eckert Academy. Every summer, it is one of the highlights of our year. No matter where the camps are held, I know I will find exceptional Jiu-Jitsu, great people, and the unique atmosphere that makes this community so special.

The camps are incredible. You can choose between many classes depending on your own level and personal interests. I really enjoy meeting up with friends from different places to train, roll, and chat together.
