Graceful, but sure footed animal like movements….. an unexpected somersault….. bodies caught in a deadlock…… sparks flying dangerously from clashing swords, with the drum beats rising to a crescendo. This is Kalaripayattu, an ancient form of martial art coming alive on stage!

The Kalari movements fine tunes the body as an extension to the mind. There are several leaps, jumps and crouching positions that give perfection to the posture



	To defend himself in the face of a double edged weapon, the kalari artiste is not only expected to have attained perfection in his skill of using the same weapon, but also to shut his mind against all distractions

Kalaripayattu has a compelling global audience with its fame and glory winning hearts all over the world. It has become a source of inspiration for self-expression in dance forms - both traditional and contemporary, in theatre, in fitness and in movies too.
