There should be a temple in Kerala for kalaripayattu just like the shaolin temple where all the kalaripayattu masters in Kerala can form a union. They can start a research group to uncover lost techniques in kalari and create new techniques as well. They can conduct competitions and also make kalaripayattu more advanced by integrating modern fighting styles and make it mma efficient.

Good idea. But please don't compare with MMA which doesn't have the deep roots of an ancient culture and philosophy.

People are not wrong about the negative perception of Kalari. Simple reason is, why there is not a single video available of its actual/real fight ? We have only Demo, Choreographed fights of Kalari Payatt. NOT A SINGLE REAL FIGHT ??? If British banned Kalari, the Japanese had also banned Taekkyon, Subak in Korea. Both the countries, India & Korea got liberation on 15th August. Thereafter, Taekwondo evolved as a Martial Arts & Martial Sport. Kalari is still portraying only Demonstrations. Hence, the reason of British ban and showcasing only Forms & Demonstrations are not a buyable excuse.

Well I think this is a viable justification in my opinion.Tho honestly I do understand and agree with the criticisms that Kalari has we first need to judge how watered down this version of Kalari is compared to the traditional one in its purest form.Also the fact that it is an excuse would be viable if Kalaripayattu was the only one affected,when all of Indian martial arts were affected right?Also there have been many martial arts watered down to be pure forms of entertainment,the most prime example being Sumo.What are your views on this?

"Nobody questions him bcoz the art is so spiritual, the instructor has become god" hard hitting but true. Keep up the good work. All the best.

I am a keralite and am very happy that this old martial art still exists. There are many stories behind it. It was in Kerala in bc/ad era. Those who achieved it in Ezhava tribe 18&half are called Chekavar. This martial art is not perfect. It was lost unexpectedly. Kalari belongs to the warriors who were known as Ezhava and chone in Kerala. The last golden period of the is till the end of the Cherala Dynasty

Actually MUAY THAI, LETHWEI,KUN KHMER and BOKATOR are all derived from KALAARIPAYATU fourth stage called VEERUKAMAI which means unarmed combat or hand to hand combat, in this stage, we have mushti yuddha(fist combat), malla yuddha(wrestling),vajramushti yuddha(claws knuckles combat) and marma( pressure points attack). So mauy thai, muay boran,lethwei, kun khmer and bokator are all derived from KALAARIPAYATU MUSHTI YUDDHA stage

Excellent Bhaiya, this video actually would help people understand what kalari is? And why are the movements so important? I personally feel like kalaripayattu is a form of study where you learn the movements of the body and coordinate the movements by which the body transforms into a flexible weapon.

Of it is too spiritual then it isnt a problem. Kalaripayatu made me spiritual. Opened me up to new sides of my self. Will never give up on the Martial art.

Thanks man even I was thinking the same. Kalari looks very artistic and brilliant but being a combat fighter myself, I've been always doubting how does one use it in a practical fight, especially back in ancient times.

the main issue what first comes to my mind would be, Since its such a ancient art and possibly the original most martial arts are derived from today is the fact it is so old, Techniques and arts evolve through time and since this was banned for so many years it made it hard for new techniques to be learned and passed down

Kalari should be our national sport

Sir you are actually respectful for me

Really informative video. All my critics and questions about this martial art were answered in this video!

Sir I am from Uttar Pradesh , I watch your every video and practice some moves and techniques for making my fighting skills and speed good , by all your video I learn some skills Thank you sir.

Nice video and insight.....kalari is a beautiful and deep fighting art which takes years to grasp and master according to me..but the practicality of this art or any other fighting art can only be taught through hands on experience i.e sparring be it with protective equipment or not. Fighting experience can only be obtained from fighting...

Yep caoperia and other types of warfare technique

Kalari should be taught in schools as part of academic curriculum. Then only it could be developed as a combat sport of some sort. When everyone learns Kalari there is scope for real competition and thereby chances for improving its effectiveness in combat sports. The use of pads, helmets and protection could take Kalari to new levels or maybe to the old glory of when it was a battle art. Besides, daily practice of Kalari could bringforth courage, discipline and good behavior by enduring hardwork, pain and fear involved in training of warfare techniques. Daily practice of Kalari is helpful to deal with issues associated with growing lifestyle diseases from sedentary work culture, junk food and substance abuse. Great effort brother. Much needed talk on a subject that deserves due attention. Reluctance to adapt to the changes of time will make Kalari a gimmick and laughing stock in the global fight communities.

​@Nandu Martial arts applications in the context of combat sports and real life fights are entirely different. In MMA there are rules like no groin shots, no eye gouging, no hitting behind the head, no hitting on numerous sensitive areas or now even no socker kicks and there are referees to ensure that there are no mishaps. Besides, in MMA or any sport like wrestling the fighters have same weight, almost same level of training and stage is set to ensure the safety of the fighters. In real-life fights the scene is different. The opponents could be one or multiple; trained or untrained; may or may not have weapons; there is scope to improvise anything as a weapon, even the walls and floor; even the time of the day have an impact on the outcome of the fight. Muay thai is a relatively modern martial art derived from bokator whose origins could be traced to mushti yuddha, numerous northeast Indian martial arts and even south Indian fighting systems like adi murai and kalari. Elbow strikes are a common technique in Kalari and adimurai. Boxing is the oldest martial art known to man and some form of it is present in almost all parts of the world including India. As for wrestling, India has produced some of the best pehalwans in the world and stories of pehelwaani are ever presnt in all Indian epics and this land has produced the best wrestler ever ' the great gama'. Origins of Judo and BJJ could also be traced to Indian martial art systems like Pehlwaani, Kalari, adimurai, and pootu murai. Eg. Kimura and similar arm locks are same as variations of 'kopra pootu' in kalari. Triangle choke, d'arce and guilettin are similar to numerous 'kola poot' in kalari and adi murai. Kalari is not a single martial art. its a culmination of multiple systems that trains the body and mind; teaches to fight with and without weapons; against single and multiple opponents; teaches first to kill and later to heal; an even teaches the techniques to manipulate vital points. One need discpline, dedication, patience and hardwork to master the techniques. Kalari teaches one to be a formidable warrior while being a good human being. Based on my experience, The northern style is stylish and holds highly effective weapon-based techniques. The southern style is dirty and has simple techniques apt for self defence as well as hand to hand combat. There are also numerous other systems like tulunadan lahalamura, kadathanadan kai kuthi payatt, kaati paruthi, pilla taangi etc. which has its on specialisations. One might need atleat 16-18 years to properly learn basic fighting; weapons like stick, knives, swords, spear and urumi as well as basics of healing techniques. Weapon training is still relevent today as it also adds to the mental strength to fight armed opponents. Besides, everyday objects could be easily weaponized with some imagination. Eg; Books, keys, belt, pen, sticks, stones; a spear is a knife tied to a stick. Someone who is well trained in souther+northern kalari, pehalwaani and pootu murai could easily become an MMA fighter as basics of grappling, wrestling and hand to hand combat are already covered and became musle memory. As for real life application, even trained individuals could suffer grave injuries if attacked with weapons like stone, stick or knife or thrown to floor. Someone with proper kalari training has better odds against armed opponents than some one trained in Muay thai, BJJ or Boxing. I have utmost respect for all martial arts. As miamoto musashi said 'One becomes a true martial artist if and when they become capable of applying the techniques learned in real life. It's not the art but the practitioner that matters.

@Nandu You can't say they are the only things that work. BJJ is simply a style of grappling. In fact, BJJ is a derivative of the Japanese Jitsu. Judo is mostly throwing techniques, Wrestling is like a combination of Judo and Jiu Jitsu. Muay Thai is a striking Martial art that uses 8 limbs. True kalari is a battle derived martial art that teaches people to kill. Please don't underestimate what you don't know. Learn Thekkan kalari from a capable master for 3 years and then say Kalari won't work in real life fights.

Kalari is 100% effective . I think To bring back the the actual Mother form of Ancient Indian Martial Art its best to explore all other arts because the missing links that were lost can be found scattered in other martials arts that spread from India and can be found in other countires martial arts .

Nowadays, More and More Gurys are turning to sparring

The problem of lack of todays effectiveness is not specific to kalaripayattu. As time goes on unfortunately without competition everything winds up becoming more of a ritual rather than a live art. If kalaripayattu had real fighting competition today then the combat effectiveness would have been preserved

I totally agreed with you 🙏🙏🙏🙏 Kalaripayat should adapt new technologies as per time something like Krav Maga. Krav Maga is totally adaptable in any situations at anytime. Don’t get me wrong. Kalaripayat is a beautiful martial arts and in fact it’s more than just a martial arts. Kalaripayat has been employed since the ancient battlefields and has been proven deadly until being banned by the British Raj. The people of the South India’s at that time has to come up with something like cultural dance or performance art to ensure the survival of Kalaripayat something like Silambam suffered at that time. Modern times posed new situations that were not addressed in Kalaripayat. This is where it has to change for modern adaptability.

this is what we called constructive discussion

I have an answer for the people who question kalaripayattu. Have you seen the map of India before British rule. During mughal rule,mourya rule, maratha rule. There is a reason why the south part is not the same colour as the north.

QUESTION- Bhaiya As a man I am interested to learn the best form of defence and attack method in the world to save people around me in any emergency, could you name and where i could learn it in details. Thankyou for your intelligence leading young people to mature things. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

The fact is that there is nothing like kalari that develops flexibility focus and reflex in your body top to bottom. Once you develop skills like that, if you do something like kickboxing or mma, you are the killer. PS - Me personally- 2 years kalari, over 5 years Muay Thai.

People think Boxing practical because of the influencers. In reality, what matters most is the style. This style is mostly agile and grabbing, especially in Hand-to-hand. Agile fighters in MMA can quickly turn tables on those that depend on strength. Someone from India should represent it in UFC. Practice with weapon is common, in other martial arts too, like Kung Fu. Though ofc, you can't just hand in a child a pen to start writing before he knows to speak and say words. So they do know hand-to-hand. Again, no disrespect to you, but practicality IMO is dumb. Because most of it comes straight from just media representation and style points. Style points are given in MMA, though. Not for practicality, but for the hype of the fans. You bring in more money to the franchise, the more stylish your fight style is

The bigger problem is people don't wanna learn it, when u don't have anyone practising how will it evolve? Yes it has been deteriorated to a great extent but if we stop practising how shall we break the cycle?

Perfectly explained!

Yes bro, u r right. U r in search of real /ancient kalari knower. In ancient period maharathis like Arjuna, karna, Parashurama etc. Were the real warriors who were able to fight till any end. I also think they have some special lethal effective magnetic techniques andpowers which differentiate them from today's kalari knowers. U have to trace out those special techniques for us as u r far ahead of us and leading in this art. Actually the warrior by birth inside u is searching for that and wants to reach its destination. I have the same instincts inside myself but I haven't got this art practically and unfortunately. But my heart is telling me to become a great kalari warrior and I will someday and somehow. Lord Shiva bless us with this real art.

Shiva does a tandav which is the most fierce and yet its called a cosmic dance so here the art is not different than the physical healing and exchange of energy its a synchronization of the body and moves.

@@imlucifer5040 he could be right The kalari stance ,is especially difficult to penetrate

Awesome point. Articulate it, so that they may comprehend.

1:44 Kalari was not banned in all parts of Kerala- Only in regions directly controlled by the British(north of Kerala). In other parts of Kerala which were ruled by Princely States, Kalari was still practised[like where I was from]

I do appreciate you…You are correct.

I feel kalarippayattu is used in wars. Many things are practical. As you say some things are spiritual. Nothing wrong with it. But you need to know which is practical and which is strengthening exercise or performing excerise.

Sir can you please start a tutorial of kalaripayattu for beginers.

My guru told me that still more fight technics have to study from kalaripayattu such as (eg :Agasthya chovadu). Their are More old palm leaf scripts are present in kalaripayttu choovadu and healing techniques is present in Tamil Nadu especially in kerala Tamil Nadu border after Thiruvanthapuram( places such as Nagarcovil )still my Guru is going to Tamil Nadu to study more chuvadu and healing techniques.In Tamil Nadu the traditional kalari practicing places have these old palm leaf scripts in their hands,it is so older they are written in old Tamil language, some are transilated and other are still on work.My guru told me that Tamil Nadu govt is documenting all these old scripts.

@@Soulreaper286 bro Kalaripayattu see in youtube it is tip of iceberg as a student i know some about it. Kalaripayattu is not only this we can see 1000 s of style in thekkan kalari. 20 or 22 years is not needed to study Kalaripayattu. The praticality of each martial arts is based how we use it. Kalaripayattu attacks are based on pressure points. The siddar who found the Kalaripayattu. According to aadhi dravida adimurai(thekkan style)agathya muni and bhogar states that 18 techniques are used Kalaripayattu this Each 18 technicals has its 64 division for example puch is a technique in kalari we can punch(idi kai )one in 18. 64 angle can be punched and its its 64 sub punches .another movement is adikai ( means hit)it is about 64 type that means 64 angel and its subdivision so this 18 type are present. Kalaripayattu masters are some who studied 22 to 24 years but it willnot complete

Good observation. Let us keep this alive.

5:05 attacking as well as keeping a block... that's how boxers throw cross and jab....

Why are there no martial arts action movies displaying this badass martial art?

Great video! Muay Boran shares the exact same problems, I have been working for years to make the art practical as it once was. I appreciate your honesty in identifying and admitting the problems of Kalari and giving practical solutions. Questioning is definitely the most important aspect that keeps martial arts practical and alive. I'm very intrigued by Indian culture and I hope to see more practical applications of Kalari in the future.

Kalaripayattu is a combat training used for 'Fight and kill' in rings in Kerala. Kerala Love. ❣️

To make it more friendly for Children, 2 versions of these sports can be created:- (1) Sports version => Schools & Amateru versions (2) Combat-Versions => Professional Championships & Military

Unfortunately these are the true facts which kalari is facing, Many of them are mixing other fighting tricks to impress the youth. I'm a student of kalari but I strongly believe in those invisible power of nature which still keeps existing this most dangerous art(Mother of martial arts) with a lot of mysteries.

Kalari Payattu seems to have the opposite problem of modern day HEMA(Historical European Martial Arts) Whereas hema is all about Sparring, and Historical Accuracy and cares little for the Spirituality, Fitness, and Meditiation. Kalari is all about health, fitness, and spirituality over Sparring as for the historical accuracy of modern kalari, I am unsure as I am not as familiar with Indian history as I am with European history

european knowledge tends not to be a lumped together.

You are totally making sense.

studiying a martial art is not about fighting whenever u get a chance, martial art teaches you how to avoid a fight, the first lesson in kalari is about disipline.

A fight avoided is a fight won

art is important but need to see from inner heart.,

Sir make a video on Nokkumarma

Bro it is look like the wudang taijiquan it is helpful for you health if you practice too much you will be a grand master in every martial art because they can copy in one seen you movement that they not be a aggressive because they have peace practice that why I like every traditional fighting style then I like it

I love all martial arts but if you don’t spar or pressure test your techniques, you cannot fight. If you know that then go ahead and have fun! However, please don’t delude yourself into thinking you can fight when you cannot. People get hurt like that. I love performance arts, I did karate and I loved its forms. I still wouldn’t say karate is a good fighting art though, it’s a quasi performance art. Switched to kickboxing and Greco roman wrestling and mixed with the distance management of karate, I think I’m starting to become decent at sparring people from all arts. The part about moving the shield with your sword is very true. If you see Italian HEMA manuals, they also suggest similar movement for sword and buckler combinations that I saw with that Kalari master. Usually you don’t use a buckler like a traditional shield because the surface area is so low. You want to basically keep it at your lead hand like a boxer’s long guard, sort of. Very accurate, loved it. Awesome video, I remember meeting a guy who was super into Wu Shu and he had been trying to make it more practical. It was only after sparring him that I realised his movements were basically a slightly fancier form of basic kickboxing. I mean our joints are designed to move a certain way and any art worth its salt would know how to move it the best way possible. I wonder if we try to make Kalari more practical if we would also end up rediscovering all the same kicks and punches just slightly different looking with different weight delivery or power generation. Awesome video!

Side note blaming the British doesn’t make sense though. From what I’ve read the English were particularly fond of Indian swordsmen so much so that they were still using Indian cavalry up until the First World War. They even said trying to teach Indians swordsmanship is impractical because they already come with a diverse skillset. This whole idea that the Brits killed it doesn’t make sense because they definitely let other arts be. Furthermore, most Indian kings during the British Raj didn’t keep standing armies, they relied on mercenaries. Especially the ones down south and west. I think that’s probably why Kalatipayattu slowly became an exaggerated version of itself and lost all applicable qualities.

So what should foreigners do if they want to take training?

Need to choreograph fights for demonstration, just like kung fu does pure kung fu, and also street fight application of kalary .

I am feel proud of my cultural and traditional martial arts I salute

Very good points 👍

We need 4,5 people who can revive the arts

Your a treasure bro 🔥🔥

Kalari is best. Please keep it up. 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

I plan to become a MMA fighter in future, I know Martial arts such as Muay Thai and Taekwondo but I still find Kalaripayattu more intimidating. I have always wanted to learn Kalaripayattu but the only problem is that there are no teachers available near my locality who can train me in Kalaripayattu.

@@johanbijujohn2999 I would Say that it is complex but effective because it actually focuses on the body mechanics of the movement you execute. For example when I did karate you chamber the kick and then strike. In Kalaripayattu you execute the kick but then you swing your leg back to teach your body proper balance and then execute it again. I will tell you from all the martial arts I have taking this one has the most body control of the strikes you execute and that means you have proper balance while fighting. It also has a lot of power in its strikes

@@johanbijujohn2999 one more then out of all the martial arts I trained in, Kalaripayattu is in my opinion the most disciplined and body conditioning along for the whole body. It's kicks are very powerful but so are it's palm strikes and punches. I have not done grappling yet but We do role for practicing grappling moves. Overall I would say I love Kalaripayattu because the movements are amazing and it challenges your body. But any good martial art will challenge you. I highly recommend it. PS it's also good for your health

Can you more fighting technique's of kalari

Karali payattu need more updation compare between other martial arts. following old syllabus wont need in today modern life.karali payattu need to become beginner friendly and well documented syllabus need. otherwise it will continue declining

Karate can done with full potential beacuse most of it is hand to hand combat But kalari can't be done like that cause PPL would die beacuse of the all the sharp weaponaries ... Like urumi is very unstable for a beginner

Bulls eye. This is something of concern. Our art is dying out while others are getting popular day by day. I think its time to propagate and compete with Kalaripayattu. It is the root of all martial arts. Appreciate the video brother.

From what I get from the medieval ballads about Kalari warriors and their fights especially staged fights where they fight to death, they didn’t fight to win in any means. Each fight was a spectacle which each fighter will demonstrate their skills endurance, strength and the better one prevails. Interestingly when they change tactic , they are supposed to notify the opponent so he would know what is coming. Failure to do so and if the opponent get injured, it was considered as deceitful and cheating and bring shame to the fighter. And during the duel each fighter will have a support fighter who doesn’t engage in actual fights but looks for illegal tactics from opponents and warns their fighter and gives weapons in situations of adversity. For those fighters it was a way of life and honor and believed in dying honorable. I don’t know how it was in a war situation.

Its time bhau, just do it! use the gear and spar! let the kalaa come out loud and clear all of us lack health and fitness and self defense skills

This kalaripayattu is not the same as it was in ancient times, so I think it should be further developed in the way that the shaolin temple monks do or should be practiced in the way that ancient kalaripayattu warriors did at the time of Bodhidharman
