I first began training in MMA in 2009 when I joined Duncan Training Center in Utrecht, Netherlands.
 

Soon after, in 2010, I became passionate about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and started training under the guidance of Mathieu Peters at Jiu Jitsu Factory. In January 2013, I received my blue belt while simultaneously developing skills in kickboxing.
 

After returning to Bulgaria in 2013, I continued my Jiu-Jitsu training in Sofia and also started practicing Judo.
 

Later, I made the decision to move to Chicago, Illinois, where I trained with Jay Valko at Valko BJJ for two and a half years – a period that significantly enriched my style and knowledge.
 

In 2016, I returned to Sofia for a short period, and afterwards, I lived and trained in Seattle, Washington. Ultimately, I chose to settle permanently in my hometown – Plovdiv.
 

In 2020, my good friend and coach, Peter Penchev (GF Team), honored me with a purple belt, and at the beginning of the same year, I founded the club "Thrace Jiu Jitsu".
 

In 2024, once again under the guidance of Peter Penchev, I received a brown belt – an important milestone that affirmed my dedication to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
 

As a coach, I believe that in addition to technique, my students must build discipline, confidence, and respect – both for the sport and for one another. My primary goal is to share my experience, develop the club, and support the personal growth of my students.
