The Martial Art of Kerala

Kalaripayattu is the martial art form of Kerala, which is as old as the green land itself. Kalaripayattu means martial art training inside a Kalari or arena. The training is done in a Kalari or arena, which is dug into the earth and lit by oil lamps.

Kalaripayattu is taught by the "gurukkal" or master who is an exponent in the field. It is taught by the master to the students and is considered to be a sacred art form of Kerala. Kalaripayattu developed during the 9th century was practiced by the warrior clan of Kerala, the Nair community to defend the state and the king. Karate and Kungfu are believed to have originated from Kalaripayattu when Bodhi Dharma took the art of Kalaripayattu to China. This martial art is as much a spiritual discipline, as it is physical.

Kalaripayattu involves extremely energetic techniques of defence and attack. Kalaripayattu helps the students in character build up, self-confidence and adoptability to circumstances. Kalaripayattu helps systemize the flow of energy in.
