Description
Jaime de Oliveira Gontijo: Contra-Mestre Papa-Léguas, was Born 19 June 1981 in Patos de Minas, Minas Gerais, Brazil. He started Capoeira at the tender age of 14 in Patos de Minas, where he was training under the monitoring of Professor Chicote.
The first group he joined was Grupo Afro, but after two years his former teacher split from this group and they moved under the group Raizes - Cordão De Ouro of Mestre Ze Paulo in Belo Horizonte, Mina Gerais.
Formed as Instructor, and already teaching together with his former teacher, he decided in 2000 to move to London where, with the help of Professor Rilene and Rejane from the Group Amazonas Capoeira, he started to give his first classes in the UK.
Then he moved to Burton on Trent for 6 months where he taught Capoeira at the local college in the performing arts course. In 2001 he moved again, this time to Nottingham where he estabilished his group, Cordão De Ouro Nottingham. His work started to grow and he created the first Cordão De Ouro Academy in the UK.
