Coach Seppe
Meet Seppe

Your upkot coach

At Upkot, he fixes everything for his students. Practical issues, personal questions or time for a community party? Nothing’s too much. Workday done? Helmet on, cruising through Ghent on his motorbike, then home to his family (where his second superhero shift begins).

Always something going on

Upkot community

Living together means creating everyday memories that last a lifetime. Spilling spaghetti and feeding the Upkot chickens. Silent disco in the kitchen. Pre-drinks and post-party hangovers. Laughing till you cry. Netflix & chill. The Big Upkot Party and a quick football match.

Welcome to our community.
