  • This art is fantastic

  • Phillip Zarrilli, a professor at the University of Exeter and one of the few Western authorities on kalari payat, estimates that the art dates back to at least the 12th century CE. The historian Elamkulam Kunjan Pillai attributes the birth of kalari payat to an extended period of warfare between the Cheras and the Cholas in the 11th century CE.

  • Kalari TRUTH:

    In Sangam, Kalari was not used as a martial act according to Dick Luijendijk, a researcher at the university of Nijmegen. "Kalari" is a centre of learning in Kerala. they taught language, math etc. later on, there were fight schools, thats what "payattu kalari" means.

  • @MikeVarghese86 you are a victim of your half knowledgeable assumptions.

  • @littlepakistan the masters seek students in this style, they dont want to give lethal skills to the bad apples of society.

  • Kerala all day baby....From Kottayam City to QueensNY718....Dravidian Brotherhood stand the fukc up!!

  • "We're not making fighters, we're making human beings. Very good human beings"
