Hicham “The Magician” El Gaoui is a highly respected Dutch-Moroccan world-class kickboxer and coach, known for his elite technical striking and dynamic Dutch-style high-volume attacking systems.
As both a championship-level competitor and a leading trainer, Hicham has built a global reputation for developing elite fighters and delivering polished, fight-proven coaching content.
Originally rising through the competitive kickboxing scene in the Netherlands — the heartland of Dutch striking excellence — Hicham made international waves with multiple world titles and standout tournament performances.
He earned the 2015 World Fighting League (WFL) -84 kg Tournament Championship and became the 2014 Enfusion Live World Champion at -80 kg, successfully defending that title on the world stage.
Ranked among the top ten middleweight kickboxers in the world by Combat Press, peaking at #4 between late 2021 and early 2022, Hicham’s fierce combination of power, precision and technical depth made him a formidable opponent in major kickboxing events and K-1-style competition throughout his career.
Hicham’s professional experience also includes training elite fighters out of the Netherlands. He has coached and developed top tier combat athletes — such as Mohammed Jaraya and Ilias Bulaid — helping them hone their skills and translate Dutch striking principles into competitive success.
