About Kalaripayattu Classes
Why Kalari With Us
I’m not here to make you a fighter overnight. I’m here to help you find your rhythm, your focus, and maybe even a bit of yourself. Kalaripayattu is more than flips and kicks - it’s about connecting with your body and mind, and feeling part of something bigger.
What You’ll Get
- You learn Kalari the way it’s meant to be, rooted in tradition
- Small groups mean you won’t get lost in the crowd - I see you, I guide you
- Classes for all ages, so whether you’re 8 or 38, you’re welcome
How We Roll

- Dedicated batches for kids and adults, with timings that fit your routine
- Private sessions for those who want more personal attention
Why It’s Worth Trying
Kalari isn’t easy - it’ll test your patience and your muscles. Expect to feel sore, sometimes a bit awkward, but also proud and strong as you keep at it. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about showing up.

My Story
I used to be a Chartered Accountant, crunching numbers and mentoring folks, until my little one asked me why she wasn’t allowed the same freedom as adults. That question hit me hard. Watching her explore, I realized we all need a space to learn together, not just follow rules. Svadhyaya grew out of that moment—here, adults and kids can ask, try, mess up, and figure things out, side by side.
My Work
Workshops & Classes for All Ages - We run Kalaripayattu classes for kids, bouldering, pottery, art, STEM workshops for families, and more.
Our Learning Philosophy - We put curiosity and exploration above technique or perfection. Learning is a joyful mess, not a race.
Grow Together, Side by Side - This space is for adults and kids to learn, connect, and support each other in Jayanagar, Bengaluru.
Teaching with Dialogue - If someone resists, we listen and adapt. It’s about guidance, not just giving answers.
