We are happy to invite you to another aikido summer camp located on Velebit mountain (Baške Oštarije), 19 km from the Adriatic sea (Karlobag).
The camp will take place July 25 – 30 and is intended as a meeting place for aikido students and instructors.
The dojo (tent) is situated on a meadow, in the beautiful and quiet mountain surrounding.
Aikido practice, Misogi, Kenkodo and Ki practice for all levels will be instructed by Shihan Maurizio Volpe, as well as other high-standard instructors.
It will also be possible to conduct examinations.
During the camp, free time can be used for hiking in the Velebit mountain (924 m a.s.l.), which is a Croatian national park, as well as for swimming in the Adriatic sea. (Transportation to the beach during afternoon breaks will be arranged each morning after practice.)
There will be one organized hiking trip, details will be arranged the day before.
This year we will have an afternoon off for more free time and rest, possibly on Monday, but could be altered according to the weather conditions.
