Kalaripayattu is an ancient martial art from Kerala, India, considered one of the oldest surviving fighting systems in the world, incorporating strikes, kicks, grappling, weapons training (swords, spears, sticks), and acrobatic movements. Traditionally taught in a special training ground called a kalari, it is closely linked to Ayurvedic medicine and marma (pressure point) knowledge, and is practiced both for self-defense and as a performance art.
