  • Indian Martial Arts by Master E
    1 Indian Martial Arts by Master E. Edwards [email protected] The following is a rendering of an article by Master E. Edwards that appeared on pages 12 – 14 of his 20th Anniversary Souvenir Program. Master Edward’s website is www.kalari-payat.org. Indian Martial Arts Origin – Even at the dawn of man’s existence, one of the first arts man was forced to learn, for self-preservation, was the art of self-defense and therefore origin of martial arts anywhere in the world will ultimately always be traced back to the origin of man. Early man had to learn not only to effectively defend himself against his enemies but also against marauding and carnivorous animals. Mind, Body and Spirit – Among the various arts developed in India, recognized for her rich cultural heritage dating back several centuries before Christ, was the one pertaining to martial arts. Ancient Indian philosophies were handed down from generation to generation normally by word of mouth or written on palm leaf manuscripts, which incredibly are still available for inspection. These oral and written philosophies give us a clear indication that the sages of yore, apart from their usual study of religion and philosophy, never neglected the study of the human anatomy incorporating the mind, body and spirit. It is precisely from this study that the various sciences of war and the indigenous Ayurvedic medical treatment emerged. Link between, Japanese, Chinese & Indian martial arts – In the southern peninsula of India there is clear evidence showing that martial arts were practiced during the 6th and 7th century.

Sanskrit, Kalady, Kerala, India Design: A review of controlled experimental studies and clinical trials designed with one of two aims: either to assess physiological responses during the performance of TCC or to assess the impact of this exercise on general health and fitness. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Metabolic rate, heart rate, blood pressure, ventilation, maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2)MAX), immune capacity, falls, and fall related factors. Subjects: A total of 2216 men and women. Results: Under review were 31 original studies, published in Chinese or English journals, that met the criteria for inclusion. Most of the papers written in Chinese had not been introduced into the Western literature. Nine of these studies showed that TCC can be classified as moderate exercise, as its does not demand more than 55% of maximal oxygen intake. When this form of exercise and others conducted at equal intensity were compared, TCC showed a significantly lower ventilatory equivalent (VE/VO(2)MAX).

  • Marma in Yoga and Other Ancient Indian Traditions 1
    Exploring the Science of Marma - An Ancient Healing Technique - Part 3: Marma in Yoga and Other Ancient Indian Traditions Alka Mishra*, Vandana Shrivastava Department of Ayurveda and Holistic Health, Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya, Gayatrikunj-Shantikunj, Haridwar, Uttarakhand, India *Corresponding Author: Alka Mishra - Email: [email protected] License information for readers: This paper is published online under the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY 4.0) License, whose full terms may be seen at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Uploaded online: 27 June 2020 Abstract Marma Science is an extremely important branch of Ayurveda. Marma points are important vital places in the body, that are the ‘seats of life’ (Prana - the vital life force). As any injury to these parts may lead to severe pain, disability, loss of function, loss of sensation, or death, therefore, they hold an important place in the science of surgery, wherein they are considered ‘Shalya Vishayardha’ (half of the entire science of surgery). The ancient scriptures have strictly directed against causing any injury to these vital spots. However, recent researches have attempted the stimulation of Marma points for theraputic benefits, with encouraging outcomes. In view of these mutually conflicting, importance applications of Marma Science, the present study was undertaken for its in-depth study. Part-1 of this study presented the information about different aspects of Marma Science in various ancient / classical Indian scriptures. Part-2 gave a detailed description of the number of marmas, their location, structures involved, classification, effect of trauma, etc., as per classical texts, as well as correlation with modern science.

  • Kalaripayattu
    Kalaripayattu (pronunciation: ) or "Payattu" is an Indian martial art from the southern state of ancient Kerala.[1] One of the oldest fighting systems in existence,[2] it is now practiced in Kerala and contiguous parts of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka[citation needed] as well as northeastern Sri Lanka and among the Malayali community of Malaysia. It was originally practiced in northern and central parts of Kerala and the Tulunadu region of Karnataka.[3] Kalaripayattu includes strikes, kicks, grappling, preset forms, weaponry and healing methods.[3] Regional variants are classified according to geographical position in Kerala; these are the Northern style from Malabar region in north Kerala, the Central style from inner Kerala and the southern style from Travancore region of south Kerala. The southern Payattu system is now extinct and the Tamil style of "Adi Murai" is classified as the southern kalarippayattu by Kerala Kalarippayattu association. The northern style was practiced primarily by the Nairs and the Ezhava (Thiyya), the two communities primarily associated with the martial arts practice in Kerala.[4] [5] as well as some Mappilas and Saint Thomas Christians. The southern style, called Adi Murai, was practiced largely by theNadars and has features distinguishing it from its other regional counterparts.[6][7][8] Northern kalaripayattu is based on elegant and flexible movements, evasions, jumps and weapons training, while the southern "Adi Murai" style primarily follows the hard impact based techniques with priority in empty hand fighting and pressure point strikes. Both systems make use of internal and external concepts. Some of the flexibility training methods in northern Kalaripayattu are applied in Kerala dance forms[3] and kathakali dancers who knew martial artswere believed to be markedly better than the other performers.

  • Kalaripayatt – the Ancient Indian Art of Self Defence Published: 2007.10.22 Stanisław Tokarski
    Archives of Budo, 2007; Vol. 3: 15-20 Received: 2007.07.17 Accepted: 2007.06.28 Kalaripayatt – the ancient indian art of self defence Published: 2007.10.22 Stanisław Tokarski Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw; Academy of Humanities, Łódź, Poland Summary This article has not been the result of the strict empirical research. But the point of depart has been of the practical nature. For many years I have been studying the various self-defence systems of Asiatic combat sports and martial arts. As the point of depart I have chosen judo. I have black belt (4th Dan). In 1964 I won the gold in University Championship of Europe. About the same time I have been graduated at Oriental Department of Warsaw University. Than my researches on Asian martial arts have began, for more than two decades I have been interested in the studies of the cultural background of armed and unarmed combat. Some legends situated the cradle of martial arts in Bharatavarsha or in the country of Buddha’s birth. Although I have written two books about it, I could not study the ancient Indian systems of self-defence. But in 2005 situation has been changed: I have got a rare opportunity to go to India -to get some glimpses of the ethos and etnos of various implications of ancient Dhanur Veda. Within the scheme of I.C.C.R. (Indian Council for Cultural Relations) I have travelled all over India. My introductory refl ection on kalari written above aims at the larger interdisciplinary and intercultural project of research on this subject.

    Journal of Martial Arts Research, 2019, Vol. 2, No. 2 DOI: 10.15495/ojs_25678221_22 Gowtham P. S. Embodied Martial and Medical Practices of South India Abstract In Tamil Nadu and Kerala, the martial arts practices appear under different names and em- phasize different aspects according to geographical, political, and linguistic considerations. They find a place in contemporary society by addressing performative, fitness, and nation- alistic and socio-political purposes. There are traditional medical systems, Siddha and Ayur- veda, associated with these martial arts: many martial arts practitioners are medical prac- titioners as well. In my paper, I draw connections between the Siddha medical system and the above-mentioned martial systems. The martial artist’s internalized understanding of the body as malleable, able to conform to stylistic conventions, and able to navigate and exploit space to harm the opponent, I con- tend, must in some way affect his perspective when he takes on the role of Siddha practi- tioner. My paper will analyse the forms and movements as they relate to the medical sys- tems, and the role they play in the practitioner’s lived identity as well as in the collective regional identity. This paper explores the above-mentioned systems within the rationality of these systems of knowledge.

    The Importance of the Eyes in Kalari Practice (PART 1) #BODY written by Anne Dubos May 14, 2014 Muscles have nothing to do with Kalari. It is all about the flow of energy – about the inner body. This is how Sathyan, a Master ofKalaripayattu , describes this martial art of Kerala, South India.

These moments of inattention where the student loses the intensity of his gaze are the privileged moment for the attack. The teacher even asks the student to “shut his eyes so that the opponent can read his intentions”.
