Usual but equally important information...

Basic info:

White to green belt holders will have their training sessions separate from the higher grades (individual grades in the morning and together in the afternoon).

Afternoon training sessions for lower belts will be mainly outdoors - please adjust your clothing accordingly (casual sportswear, shoes, hat/scarf and drink bottle).

lower belt training sessions will be interspersed with team competitions

Meals are on a standard schedule of 3 times a day and always something for a snack or second dinner for the hungry. Upon arrival we start with dinner.

Drinking is very important during sports performance, so please have a resealable bottle for training and a small supply of mineral or ionic drinks.

Drinks can be purchased at a nearby shop. Drinking water from the public water supply is available at the hostel.

For outdoor training, a cap, scarf, hat or something else to protect your head from the direct sun is recommended!

Clothes, shoes, etc.

For any training camp, and for summer camps even more so, the more doboks the better. You can still purchase doboks at practice.

Holders of 8th kup and above may only train in a full dobok. Exceptions are made only for optional evening training and all outdoor training. 10th and 9th kups may combine a dobok, or white shirt and sweatpants. We have versatile white, blue and girls pink t-shirts that are suitable for training use. They can be purchased at training sessions along with other equipment. Every Tuesday and Thursday from 6 to 8 pm at the Černý Most.

We recommend to bring 1-2 towels or bath towels.

A tracksuit or shorts will come in handy. A sweatshirt and long-sleeved shirts should not be missing from your kit. The buildings we are staying in

are among the cooler ones, and unless it's tropical temperatures outside, it's rather chilly inside!

Footwear - trainers (thin soled ones are fine) for exercising in the gym, sports shoes for outside - there will be the occasional run and sandals are not suitable for this! Slippers for the accommodation area.

What equipment should I have for training?

All for training dobok and t-shirts as written above

your own kicking pad if you have one

yellow to green boxing glowes and mouth guards

Green and blue and higher bands complete equipment - hands, feet, mouth buard and boys jockstrap. Helmet is highly recommended.

What are you waiting for?

Training 2 times a day with groupings. Evening training sessions are optional, individual training or preparation for exams. If you want to fix something, learn something, etc. you have the opportunity!

Tuesday evening roasting of sausages and other delicacies

Wednesday will be dedicated to active leisure. We will make the morning more interesting with a walking tour of the area, where we would like to take a nice exhibition photo of each participant. In the afternoon we will have basketball and Tekken tournaments!

the second Saturday evening we will dedicate to the examination for higher technical levels

the full end of the camp will be devoted to the tests for higher technical levels
