A floor.
Not a ceiling.

Martin Bosý isn’t the kind of coach who counts sets. He takes movement apart down to the physiology: how the body generates force, how it holds rhythm, how it connects things that seem unrelated. He came out of Fighting Monkey, co-led the Grappling Development project, coaches freestyle wrestling professionally under Jozef Lohyňa and has practiced Tai Ki Kung for years. He also holds a master’s degree in physiology and ethology. Today he’s one of the main coaches on our MMA team.

“He turned my whole understanding of fighting upside down. He sees connections where others see only separate things. To me, he’s Gandalf.”Ján Samuel Lupták

Denis Freudenfeld is physiotherapist to Olympic champions Matej Tóth and Anastasiya Kuzmina, and he played a big part in their medal success. Many other Slovak Olympians have passed through his hands too. He has a whole range of physiotherapy certifications and methods behind him. He doesn’t work with Ján once in a while. They put in the work together every day: ACL rehab, clean movement under full load, getting rid of the places where the body loses power.

“In the world of physiotherapy, Denis is what Kuzmina was in biathlon: world-class. Unique and creative.”Ján Samuel Lupták

Rudolf Lukáč spent fifteen years on the Slovak national weightlifting team and competed at the Olympic Games twice. For years he led strength and explosiveness training at the Dukla Military Sports Center (VŠC Dukla), went to three Olympics as a coach and was behind the success of Martin Tešovič, a world champion who lifted 190 kg in the snatch and 227 kg in the clean and jerk. Today he leads his own movement, Weightlifting For All, and runs the certified Bezpečné vzpieranie (safe weightlifting) brand. And a number that says it all about explosiveness: he’s over fifty and still gets 120 kg overhead.

“We’ve known each other for more than ten years. Rudo is strength and calm at once. He lifts like no one else, and he’s got tried-and-tested things for the body, performance and the head that you won’t find anywhere else.”Ján Samuel Lupták

Marek Vrťo approaches movement from the other side, from the inside. He founded Škola pohybu Detva (a movement school in Detva), has spent years studying and teaching DaoYin (the Internal Intent school, under Roy Jenzen and the Slovak teacher Juraj Jaseň), and practices classical Chinese medicine.

“For the fourth year now, he’s been rebuilding my movement from the inside. He connects the outer and the inner like almost nobody can. What Ido Portal did for McGregor, Marek is doing for my body.”Ján Samuel Lupták
