Summer seminar, Crikvenica Croatia

Each summer, all of the Little Idea kung-fu family is invited to meet at the sunny seaside resort of Crikvenica for a week of intensive practice, sun and sea.

Crikvenica is a small town on the Croatian coast, approximately 45 minutes south of Rijeka on the adriatic coast.

Until 2005, the seminar was always held the last week of July, however in 2006 it was moved to the first week of August. Due to schedules and time constraints, future seminars may also be planned during the first week of August. Regardless of intentions, do check back here or contact Thor, Zoran or Igor for definate dates before making reservations.

The 2007 summer seminar dates will be Monday 23rd of July - Friday 27th July.

Training is normally held in a large sports centre built in 2003, complete with weight room and air-conditioning. We usually practice from 8.00 to 14.00, giving ample time to relax, see the sights, go to the beach, etc.

From Norway, you can fly directly to Rijeka with Norwegian (Rijeka airport is actually on the island of Krk, which is an island directly off the coast of Crikvenica, expect to spend around 45 - 60 minutes getting from the airport to Crikvenica).
