I spend time teaching the mechanics of each swing—like how to grip a Mugdar without straining your wrist or how to rotate your shoulder correctly. You leave with a clear, simple routine that you can start practicing at home the very next day, regardless of your current fitness level. ### Why Ancient Indian Tools? It is not about showmanship or lifting the heaviest weight. It is about longevity. Many of my clients come to me with what I call 'IT job shoulders'—stiff, painful, and lacking range. My workshops break down the basics of Mugdar, Gada, and Karlakattai to help you reclaim that movement. I mix these traditional tools with modern science to ensure you are actually fixing the root cause of your stiffness, not just masking it. ### What to Expect I keep my groups small so everyone gets hands-on correction. Whether it is a session at a residential apartment in Bangalore or a more traditional setting in Kerala, I make sure you are not just following a flow, but understanding the biomechanics behind it. We start from ground zero—how to stand, how to hold the equipment, and how to breathe. ### Who Should Attend I have taught everyone from young athletes to grandparents. If you can hold a club, you can learn. There is no 'starting point' requirement. If you have been feeling restricted in your daily life or just want to add something new to your training, these workshops are designed to give you a foundation you can keep building on long after the session ends. ## About Praveen KA I am a Thrissurkaran who believes fitness should be part of our daily rhythm. Whether you are 8 or 80, I want to show you how ancient Indian tools can bring movement back into your life, no matter where you are starting from.
