The Kalarikallam or training square is a 2500 square foot area which houses a kalari square. With an L shaped area for visitors to watch students learning the craft, the square is surrounded by a ring and lies about 4 feet below the surrounding visitors’ area. It also houses a display of all the weaponry that is used in Kalaripayattu.
For visitors, apart from watching Kalaripayattu students in a real setting, one could also understand the history of perhaps the oldest martial art in the world.
Across the seating area one can see a display of every Kalaripayattu weapon used in the learning of this art.
Apart from live action, special requests to show various massage therapies used by the kalari masters for injuries are also showcased for visitors.
