    Warm and welcoming family atmosphere. A real commitment to the practice of capoeira and to the subtleties of the art form, its history and its rituals. Simon and his students are great. Starting to train here was the best choice I ever made.

    UR capoeira has been a life saving experience, especially during difficult times. It is a safe place where to be, learn, listen, move and sing. Outdoor training has given me a unique insight on how to be human; Simon’s philosophy on movement and health has changed my approach to training in many ways. UR capoeira is the best place to be, to move to play to sing to feel accepted always. Highly recommend:)

    Training outdoors over the past 18 months has made me much stronger and actually enjoy the weather throughout the year. Practice has evolved with playfulness, climbing trees, running after the howler, playing music and sharing the Capoeira vibes in public spaces. Those moments are precious. It’s so easy to get lost in the city, going from one box to the next. Reconnecting with the outdoors and nature through training has been one of the best things that happened to me together with becoming a part of the UR Capoeira group. A big thanks to Fantasma and all my friends for making my life much richer and happier!

    UR Capoeira is inclusive, open, grounded and fun and provided me with some of my most valuable friendships in life thus far. Simon does an amazing job in making everyone who wants to learn feel part of this learning community. There’s plenty of space and time to progress at one’s own pace while Simon also ensures that the right things are learned the right way, always. His integrity towards the art and its intricacies, his vast knowledge & experience and keen eye for good, healthy movement across body types, and his emphasis on exploration and discovery make each class with him special. U R Capoeira has been a wonderful space for cultivation of body, mind, and spirit for me and has helped me know myself better, overcome chronic injuries and meet life with natural confidence and playfulness. If you would like to experience learning from a true master of his art and feel attracted to Capoeira - be that its movements, its music, its philosophy, its culture - I highly recommend Mestre Fantasma and UR Capoeira as one of Europe’s best addresses to learn.

    I am an artist who has been following UR for years. During covid19 everything has moved into the local parks and the dedication and true grit of this class became evident. I, even though my personal circumstances made it impossible to always be there, found connection with the whatsapp and internet, the supportive nature of this group helped to feel less alone through adversity. I listened more and felt the collective high with a different sense and awareness. And devoleped a deeper love for the practice (if that is possible). Simon is so present as a teacher and the group molds the future. Axé.

    Superb training in the park. A really varied and exciting class out in the open air. Absolutely fantastic way to spend an hour or two. The teaching is insightful, clear and full of wisdom and humour, Simon obviously knows his stuff and teaches with unbridled enthusiasm and knowledge. Highly recommend it.
