FORGET ABOUT OUTSIDE WORLD EVEN INDIANS DONT KNOW...

@@mynameis5058 edit: they dont care

No man, don’t bye this hype, its a beautiful place but kalaripayattu is overrated, it is NOT the first martial art by any means, Boxing, wrestling and prankration dates baack to 8th century BC! Bodhidharma was born on AD 400’s! Plus there are straightforward and effective martial art systems all over the world that predates this, even in India. Senegalese wrestling Aadimurai etc. People always faught!

@@inker_G kalaripayattu extends back to 6 BCE. Bodidharmma's form of martial art is an extended version of the precursor (root form) of kalari. By the way in BCE kerala was part of Tamil naadu.

@@ekarthikn97 still na, 8th century BC is 200 years before 6th century BC! Plus boxing, wrestling and H.E.M.A are still effective to this day! Why should we take false credit purporting bogus claims! If any real expert scrutinises all this will fall apart.

Exactly

Boddhi dharma taught not only defense tatics but also the way to use your inner energy(chi) to project it outwards through martial arts. When he went to china he just started meditation for weeks without food. Some got interested and became his disciple

I'm from bodhi dharmas place. Chinna(little) Kanchipuram.

Bodhi darmar was born in tamil nadu kanchipuram district

Yes i know bodhidharman , he was a yogi , scholar , ayurvedic treater and martial artist ...i have a seen a movie about him which is in tamil language known as *7am arivu* starring Suriya . people in india may not know much about him but Chinese are well known about him. There is a saying that when Chinese people were deeply affected by diseases and hardship bothidharman left india and settled in china to treat them. After treating them he then decided to return to india and that time again people in china were getting sick , So to stop this diseases it was adviced that after the death of bothidharman he should be buried in the soils of china to stop this crisis. He also had wife and his son who were settled in India while he was in China. He is the one who taught martial arts to the people of China and also known for creating all kinds of martial arts and mind training. That's all heard about him.

I am from Kerala, India and I live in Karakkad

Can't we ask government of kerala to practice this in our schools at least government schools not all of it. Just the basic level.

BRO YOU ARE LUCKY ....I ALSO WANT TO LEARN THAT!!

Sir pls I want to learn kalaripayattu

Iam learning Kung fu

Why kalaripayitu is not taught to Indian army. It should be added there.

Yes, it also involves nerve pinch techniques that can even cause deaths. Imagine, this martial art was banned in the British era because of the fear of it

i think it is because people have guns in there hand but it is good for fitness

@@karthiksubramanian2279 no mma boxer will stand before it

@@joneeboi9303 no human being can stand infront of it my brother is a kalari martial artist he said that there is a pressure point in neck if u strike there then paralysis or death

Exactly bro..i too practiced long back..good you explained this much

Well said... 👏👏👏

@@SD-pb2by I kind of feel like it has not got its due recognition , like say Kung-Fu, probably because 1) The language and the history of it are limited to a small population within the country. 2) Efforts are not taken to propogate the martial art form .The experienced Masters usually live a humble, minimalistic life. 3) It does not come off as as flashy as its East Asian forms. So I felt like letting people know how it "feels" like, rather than how it "looks" like. There should be efforts to preserve this martial art or it will eventually die out , once the aged Masters would be no more and the younger ones get busy in other profittable professions. Even us Keralites seem to have forgotten about it, unless we are reminded about it on Onam, get nostalgic while living abroad, or when there is a reaction video of it on the internet. It would also be worth noting that it is not a martial art people should learn if they imagine themselves flying around and taking kicks like Vidyut Jamwal, within a month of starting to learn it . The practice requires a lot of patience, perseverence, and to an extent some discipline (all of which I did not seem to have for long, unfortunately). They don't teach Vidyut Jamwal tricks or even kicks in Kalari. It is not an art of showmanship, but it is more like a way of living, or a very challenging yet beneficial routine(I wonder why people go to the gym, when they could be going to Kalari at a much lesser fee). What Vidyut does is more gymnastics and parkour, for which his Kalaripayatt training might have benefitted him, perhaps(no, definitely).

..go to gym (for fitness)* when..

If those warriors were so brave and skilled then why they couldn't ban british. Mental strength always wins over physical.

@@ykd0011 maybe you know the reason behind the fallen Indian leagacy Ok i tell you in ancient times until British there is rivalry between each kings. like rivalry between neighbours. And Britishers, Frenchmen, Italians, Portuguese people came to INDIA as marchcents and introduces paper and other things. They silently divided into groups and makes fake friendships with kings. Make Indian kings rivalry to their use and occupy India peace by peace until its too late to reliaze. They have guns and Indian have knives you know the answer right they defeats indian rulers and taken everything knowledge, courage, money, gold, diamonds even the world's costliest Kohanoir is stolen from india and some are faded or buried upto 200 years

It's said that Lord Indra killed Vritra using this technique.

It's based on the accupuncture points in the body. Ninjitsu is similar to that wherein you disable your opponent and at times even kill them.

It's spelled as "Vidyut"

Sorry my bad😁

@@vishkiller23 It takes 12 years to even start using urumi. Vidhyut just started learning kalari!!

yeah it can not be used for sport or cinematic , Ancient Indian Marital Art is very mean and very lethal , they have no idea at all , even a small Kukri "the Dagger of Hindus of Nepal" has Shiva Linga at the end of the blade and at the just before the handle , so that if blood drips from the blade , finger cud redirect "spray the dripping blood" on the eyes of opponent , it is not abt fighting the opponent , it is abt finishing .

@@joelflyaway in kerala and that spread to Tamil Nadu and South and South all state is learning but this kallari martial is permanent of kerala

Yeah. They only care about actors practicing it. But not the beauty of this martial form. Its so pleasing to see its rise in today's time.

I had practiced Kalaripayatt for about a year with discontinuities in between, because ofcourse I was lazy to get up so early. We had to be present in the Kalari(the floor, dug beneath ground level) before sunrise, oil ourselves up and practice in east-west direction our eye-level raised as if looking at the rising sun, 5 days a week. The first few days of practice were harsh, its unlike anything, I felt I needed a stretcher to carry me since my whole body was aching in places I did not know existed before. And it did not even have any weight carrying excercise as in the gym. It was just full stretched kicks("Kaal Edukkal") with strict body posture with hands and eyesight raised, and lots of choreographed, exaggerated body movements as mentioned in the video. And the Gurukkal( Guru, instructor)) told us that it was for improving flexibility, balance, joint strength, stamina and agility. But when days went by, with more practice, man did I not feel those things building up inside my body without even me knowing it ?! I could feel the body balance, when I would accidentally slip and fall and my body would instinctively comes to a gripping balance without falling down, almost like a cat. And Jaby is right, there are animal stances and movements too. Like Gaja vadivu (elephant stance), Marjara vadivu( Kind of cat-like smooth movement), Mayoora vadivu (peacock stance) and such, aimed at building your core and leg strength as well as balance and flexibility. There is a saying about Kalaripayattu which when translated roughly means "Your body should be your eye", meaning you should practice it so much that your body awareness and instinct becomes your vision so that you could defend an attack even if it comes from behind you. There is also a weapon in the wooden weapon training called 'otta', a short thick curved club(like an elephant tusk), which when practiced rigorously is said to make you defend yourself even in sleep (meaning, when the attack is from close range and without having the time for your senses to gather what is happening. Pure sharpening of instincts). It is even beneficial to just learn the initial body conditioning ("Meyyorukkam"), if you are not really interested in weaponry, just as a fitness routine. But even that is an ultimate test to your fitness, I feel like. The movements may not require as much power as in the other martial arts, but the quick, prolonged, agile, and exaggerated movements would tire you down quickly. Learning the whole course would take lot of years of practice, while some talented people do excel in it within fewer years. You would not see Kalaripayattu practitioners with a beefed up body. They would be lean and often lanky, but they would be flexible, agile with strong joints and great stamina. You would feel their strength in their iron-lock clutch in hand-to hand combat. I had only reached the wooden staff practice when I dropped it before moving away for my University studies. There were also little tips I got from Gurukkal like "Try to be aware of even the tip of your toe when you practice", " You may even practice Kalaripayattu movements in your mind, if you dont get to practice for long" which were also helpful while I were practicing. I remember he would never let the students sit down and relax if we were tired in between practice.He would just give a bit of a time-off, where you would not be allowed to sit idly, but we were supposed to walk around tired and out of breath(like how agile aware dogs are- is what he used to say) to relax our breaths. At that time I would think things like why is this guy torturing us like this, and his words almost felt like non-sense to the inexperienced me, but with time you would come to learn how valuable those words and his experience are. The effect of Kalaripayattu practice happens in our own body awareness and mind. From personal experience, I feel it brings some kind of discipline and peace of mind and control over one's on body and emotions. I feel like it hones you to be a tireless fighter, definitely for the physical fight, but more for the mental one, called Life. The effect is almost spiritual. So, that was my ode to Kalaripayattu. (I had written this down as a separate comment, then I saw this comment, which I am sure no one would notice among the comments on how beautiful Amy is. Yeah she is beautiful, but this martial art form needs to be known about too, and preserved.)

Neo-Noiranathu Bronthan , Bro suggest us good institute for learning the art. We Telugians are not fortunate to have a single institute in " Telugu Natu "

@@bgirish4012 I am sure you would find some instructors in your state as well. In Kerala you could find more such traditional Kalaris clustered in the Malabar area (Kannur, Calicut, Vadakara) (where the style is called Vadakkan Kalari- Nrth Kalari) . I am not really sure where you would find in the Southern Kerala though,where the style is called (Thekkan Kalari- South Kalari) but you would find Kalaris in almost all districts of Kerala. Go for the humble and traditional institutes where they don't train students in large numbers. They would charge you only less and would care about each individual student.

@@bgirish4012 Found this on a one year old post on Quora. Not sure about the details or even if it is genuine.

You are totaly right, Dana White also said that somewhere sometimes back in '16 I guess. It's very much like kung fu but not like muai thai or krav maga.

@@adityanath3570 Both Kung fu/wushu and Kallaripayattu is an excellent and flexible art of weponry which was effective in battledield and hand to hand combat was useful to disarm someone, same case for Aikido.. but they follow a certain pattern or steps or popularly known as Kata in karate which is good to improve stances and get flexible but highly impractical because in real fight hits are unpredictable and with adrenaline rushing those systematic muscle memory will be of less use.. thats why the only traditional martial art that could come in handy are Muay Tai, KyukushinnKarate, Judo, Jujitsu, Kusti, greeko wrestling and any traditional native forms that preffers sparring more than kata.. as sparring helps you understand the unpredictability and dangers of full contact fights....

You're right about the resemblance. The reason is all those countries were conquered by the Chola emperor named Rajendra cholan son of Rajaraja cholan. The chola warriors used to practice Kalari, Malyutham, yoga and taught to them.

This makes sense. Kara - means hand Ante or ata - means sport in sanskrit Together it makes karate. Largely sanskrit originated languages have this grammar and form like this.
