Training camps in 2013

Like last year’s two camps (one online, the other on Andros Island during summer holidays) I plan to do the same this year! Most likely the first online camp will be during Easter holidays and the island camp will be in summer, as usual 🙂

I already have a few students who wish to study during Easter, so do not hesitate to join! As for summer camp, it will again happen on Andros Island, Greece and the location is “Krinos Suites Hotel“, a hotel owned by my sister-in-law, Alexandra Logotheti.

Group, pair or private lessons will depend on the amount of students and the time of their arrival. Students who wish to participate in the camp may book their rooms in advance in “Krinos Suites Hotel” or in any other hotel on Andros Island.
