In May, Kalari Sangha will host the West's first ever Kalari teacher training and immersion. Held in Oaxaca, Mexico, the retreat will break participants from their daily lives and provide an opportunity to really grow and experience the practice like never before. We will have two intense practices per day, famous Oaxacan cuisine and time for contemplation and relaxation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=" color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=" color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px; "&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Dates: May 1st - 15th, 2010&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; Teacher training starts on Saturday of each week.

In May, Kalari Sangha will host the West's first ever Kalari teacher training and immersion. Held in Oaxaca, Mexico, the retreat will break participants from their daily lives and provide an opportunity to really grow and experience the practice like never before. We will have two intense practices per day, famous Oaxacan cuisine and time for contemplation and relaxation. This format is authentic to training in India, but we're bringing it much, much closer to the States.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_urvKtvRElnQ/S4TIvAqBiKI/AAAAAAAAAsk/eMi0RGuKolM/s400/gerhard-wildboar.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 333px; height: 335px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441694959726069922" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:x-small;"&gt;Wild boar posture&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Additionally, we're providing the opportunity for those interested to take the first step toward teacher certification in the lineage of C.

It is the sister to Yoga and Ayurveda, and there are elements of those practices in Kalari.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;WHAT IS KALARI PRACTICE LIKE?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Kalari has a systematic approach to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;training&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt; the complete Self: the body, the emotions and the mind. Practice begins with movement-based warm-up and conditioning exercises. Then the practitioner moves to a set of flowing movement sequences called body forms. Next are weapon forms, and shamanic animal postures. Kalari is a physically demanding practice, but the beauty is that persons of any physical condition can participate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;The key principles include the concept of Siva and Sakti, expansion of sensory awareness, continuous flow of contraction and expansion and the reenactment of the eternal cosmic story of creation and destruction. Unlike in many schools of modern Yoga, experience is not induced by the teacher's instructions and practicioners are usually not told when to in- or exhale. In Kalari breath follows movement, not movement breath. The practicioner's subtle as well as his physical bodie's own innermost intelligence and power is encouraged to unfold as he starts to truly embody the forms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 20px; "&gt;&lt;/span&gt;KALARIPPAYAT&lt;br /&gt;Kalari developed at the junction of the indigeneous Dravidian culture of southern India and the Vedic culture that migrated from the north. Kalarippayat literally means "training ground-exercise" and the term "Kalari" can used both to describe the practice, as well as the room in which it is practiced. It has been a major influence on the development of Yoga and Ayurveda and vice-versa since times immemorial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHEN THE BODY BECOMES ALL EYES&lt;br /&gt;Kalari and Yoga share principles and a lot of terminology. However, there are also obvious differences.Kalari stresses the concept of living in this world, emphasising the expansion and development of the senses, as opposed to the classical practice of pratyahara or going inside. This paradigm is commonly called "when the body becomes all eyes". Another unique principle is called "embodying the animal spirit", a psycho-physical practice in which the Abhyasi actually takes on the animal's attributes, not just its shape or posture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE MOTHER OF MARTIAL ARTS&lt;br /&gt;Scholars often refer to Kalari as the mother of all martial arts. According to legend, a young prince from Kerala named Boddhidharma and was a skilled Kalari warrior, converted to Buddhism and later traveled north where he became the tutor of the Shaolin monks. Even today, the similarities can still be seen in some animal postures, movements and exercises. But Kalari has also influenced classical Indian dancing and vice-versa. In Teyyam special Kalari-Teyyams reenact famous battles and the dancers often lose themselves of trance-like frenzy not unlike the transformative fury of Kalari-warriors. Kalari-training is also the preliminary education for dancers of Kathakali.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TO HEAL AND TO HARM&lt;br /&gt;Last but foremost Kalari is a unique healing system. This branch is called "Kalari Chikitsa". It is most famous for its original system of marma-therapy, as well as the unique nadi- and foot-massage. It is believed that only a practicioner who is both physically and spiritually strong and pure can bear the strain of the intense treatments where strokes are often administered in the same deep and energetically powerful stances that the practitioner has been practicing for years before finally being taught the massage. It is said that in order to heal, you must first learn how to destroy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/840365585840685251-1037406723278449679?l=www.kalarisangha.net' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/840365585840685251/posts/default/1037406723278449679'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/840365585840685251/posts/default/1037406723278449679'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.kalarisangha.net/2008/03/kalarippayat.html' title='Kalarippayat'/><author><name>Kalarippayat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17322093200855910626</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='05931214901833286971'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-840365585840685251.post-8472514029063662300</id><published>2009-07-03T07:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-11T04:32:11.689-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Latvia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kalarippayat'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kalari Chikitsa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Riga'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kalari'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='C.M.

From the first session onwards Gerhard was amazed about the effects: After a hard training he felt energized, more present than before, rather than depleted as he had with previous types of training. Since then Gerhard has embarked on a powerful journey, training up to six months every year with his teacher C. M. Sherif Gurukal in Kerala/India, and immersing himself ever deeper into what is said to be the most ancient martial art in the world.&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_B0aE4Nzu1bs/SF4z2wYe3UI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/r5zO_uZK5rA/s320/_MG_0276+copy.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214662434335153474" border="0" /&gt;He is a certified instructor (Ashan) of the Kerala Kalarippyat Academy in Kannur / Kerala and teaches at his own studio in Hamburg/Germany as well in various places around the world.   Gerhard has completed ten years of the traditional 12-year-“gurukkula”-education and is one of the very few Westerners who have been trained and given permission to teach in the three different styles of Kalarippayat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_B0aE4Nzu1bs/R_19BqccAII/AAAAAAAAAA4/SLZtMcy9A8o/s400/wild+boar.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187439813327585410" border="0" /&gt;Gerhard has intensely explored the traditional weapons of the Kalari, among these the Otta, a marma weapon unique to Kalari. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Kalarippayat, not only being a martial art, but at the same time being a healing art (Chikitsa), offers a wide range of treatments and is considered to be the neurology and physiotherapy branch of Ayurveda. Gerhard is also studied in this side of Kalari, which is equally important to the tradition and permission to give these treatments in only given to Kalari’s most senior students.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_B0aE4Nzu1bs/SF4xUFjki-I/AAAAAAAAAEA/eOaesutVmsY/s320/Chavutti.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214659639700130786" border="0" /&gt;&lt;div&gt;As such its focus is on the marmas, the vital spots of the body. Gerhard is trained both in nadi and marma therapy as well as in foot massage (Chavutti Uzhichil) – a complex full body treatment given with the feet of the therapist.&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_B0aE4Nzu1bs/SF4yl4_zljI/AAAAAAAAAEI/I-U_Nd20Geo/s320/Chavutti-closeup.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214661045078169138" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;His inspiring classes are deeply rooted in his fundamental knowledge, his descriptive approach, his love to share what he was granted to discover and his great sense of humor. His ability to lead each student according to his/her individual potential makes every class an experience of growth and joy – for beginners and advanced practitioners alike.&lt;br /&gt;Born in southern Germany and raised in Toronto/Canada, Gerhard has lived in Ireland, France and Germany. In an “earlier life” he has been a fashion-photographer and web designer. Teaching and continuously learning Kalari, the true cosmopolitan is now based in Hamburg, frequently traveling to India and abroad.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
