Blue Stripe Belt

Eva Kakaveli relocated from Greece to the UK in May 2014 in search of employment opportunities, driven by her homeland's ongoing economic crisis. As she grappled with the challenges of acclimating to a new environment—distinct language, unfamiliar laws and regulations, and a different way of life—she found herself confronted with three attacks, with the second occurring at her own residence.

Overwhelmed by a profound sense of terror and helplessness, Eva resolved to learn Kick Boxing as a means of self-defense. It was during this time that she crossed paths with Michael Williams and Adnan Ahbab, who became her trainers and mentors.

Throughout her training journey, Eva discovered an immense passion for martial arts and the inherent values they instill, such as courage, integrity, discipline, focus, perseverance, and benevolence. She recognized the applicability of these principles to enrich every aspect of one's life. Despite enduring a few injuries and undergoing two surgeries that impeded her progress towards the coveted black belt, Eva remained steadfast in her dedication and perseverance.

Her unwavering commitment continues to propel her forward, as she strives to achieve the black belt while harboring an ardent desire to inspire others. Above all, Eva aims to demonstrate how to surmount any obstacles by nurturing inner strength, fostering personal growth, discovering inner peace and harmony, cultivating self-belief, and achieving success in all aspects of life.
