### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An Ancestor of Asian Martial Arts +++
  

*by K***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 22, 2010*

This book, "Kalaripayat" concerns Kalaripayat in all of its aspects -- which are all the aspects of a full "Health-Defense Art". Actually "Kalaripayat" presents an overview of the whole "Kalaripayat World" -- the common Tradition of the Kalaripayat Arts as well as their more localized variants -- such as the Northern and Southern spectrum as explained in summary on pages 46 and 47 -- and elsewhere as well. Presented is a FULL background to the Kalaripayat Arts -- ancient history, legend, Diety aspects, metaphysics, meditation and breathing, bioenergy topics and practices, healing methods based on those, massage -- and other health methods. Actual living Kalaripayat lineages have been consulted by the author, Patrick Denand, who uses great BIG full-color photos [such as page 81 and so on], good black-and-white photos and good drawings to illustrate his excellent prose [developed as a CBS war correspondent]. Kalaripayat self-defense is sampled via a FEW well-chosen methods to demonstrate the FULL variety of postures, shifts, kicks, trips, blows and grappling -- one could expect of an Ancestor of Asian Defense Arts -- therefore of modern self-defense Arts -- such as Kenpo Arts like mine. This surely includes Tibetan Lion's Roar Arts -- the Kalaripayat Long and Fold Arm methods are mirrored in such Tibetan Arts. The Northern Long Arm and Southern Fold Arm Arts of Kalaripayat seem mirrored as well in Northern and Southern "Kung-Fu". The whole chapter 7 "The Influence of India on Asia and of Kalaripayat on the Martial Arts" presents a great summary of such deep ancient mirror-influences -- reflected and recreated into present Living Arts +++

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A great book describing history and concepts of a relatively unkown Indian martial art, that may be the original martial art
  

*by P***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 9, 2013*

This book is great for an understanding of the concepts and history of the Indian martial art of kalaripayat.For more on the application and training methods of Kalarippayat I recommend the book by D. H. Luijendijk.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    INFORMATIONAL NOT INSTRUCTIONAL
