At Challenge Club Ajman, we are proud to introduce Kalaripayattu, one of the world’s oldest and most respected martial arts. Originating from Kerala, India, over 3,000 years ago, Kalari is more than just combat training — it is a holistic system that strengthens the body, sharpens the mind, and nurtures the spirit.
Our Kalari program is open to children, teens, and adults who want to experience a martial art deeply rooted in tradition while enjoying modern, structured training in a safe environment. Whether your goal is fitness, flexibility, discipline, or cultural connection, our Kalari classes are the perfect choice.
Kalari is known as the mother of all martial arts and is considered one of the oldest fighting systems still in practice. It combines strikes, kicks, grappling, weaponry, and healing techniques with deep philosophy and meditation practices.
