SUMMARY:Kalaripayattu Basics: Strength\, Grace\, and Focus | 3 Day Residential Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Kalaripayattu is one of India’s oldest martial traditions\, born in the gurukulas and battlefields of Kerala and refined over centuries as a complete system for strength\, agility\, focus\, and inner discipline. Far beyond a display of kicks and leaps\, it trains the body to move with animal-like grace\, the mind to stay steady under pressure\, and the senses to become sharply aware of space\, rhythm\, and energy. \nThis 3-day Kalaripayattu Foundation workshop offers a structured initiation into this living art. Participants will learn fundamental warm-ups\, postures inspired by animal forms (vadivu)\, basic kicks\, steps\, and movement patterns that recalibrate natural alignment and coordination. Whether you are an athlete looking to enhance performance\, a yoga practitioner wanting deeper body awareness\, or a professional seeking a stronger\, more resilient body-mind\, this immersion will equip you with practical tools to build strength\, flexibility\, balance\, and mental discipline that you can carry into everyday life. \nKey Learnings Involve: \n\nVadivukkal: Postural allignment\, building the structural integrity of the body to improve strength and stability.\nKaalugal: Dynamic leg movements that improve coordination\, balance and flexibility.\nAdithada: Reaction and defence\nKalarivandanam: Resets the nervous system and creates mental discipline\nVadiveeshal: Vadi – cane weapon spinning\n\nThe Details of the Retreat are as follows: \n*Suitable age group 12 to 18 years and above* Open for all\, no prior experience or training required in Kalari or in other movement form. \nDate and timings: Starts on the 13th May (Wednesday) at 4:30 PM and concludes on 16th May (Saturday) 2026 at 4:30 PM. \nVenue: Indica Gurukulam @ Ritambhara\, No. 69\, BMTC Layout\, Adjacent to Kammasandra Village\, Lakshmipura-Hobli. \nThe Retreat Place\, located just on the outskirts of Bangalore city\, is a small beautiful space dedicated to Yoga and spiritual studies and practices in a simple and clean environment adjacent to a farm of its own. \nWorkshop Contribution: Rs 7\,800/- per person.
