Mestre Fantasma (Simon Atkinson) and his students will be teaching and inspiring you about capoeira. Mestre Fantasma first experienced capoeira in 1989 with a highly respect Mestre Gato. Fantasma immediately caught the capoeira bug, started training capoeira with friends in a dingy car park in Southend and has since been teaching capoeira in East London to adults and children: www.capoeira-angola.co.uk Simon Atkinson and all his students that teach are experienced in working with young people and have completed CRB checks.
