What is Katha Arts ?

Katha - meaning story. Telling stories has been the foundation of human existence since time immemorial. Many great civilisations have great stories to tell. Many great individuals share great stories from their life. There is a natural craving for every individual to tell stories to others which is irrespective of caste, creed, profession, gender, etc.

The greatest gift that one can gift themselves is a body that can Explore, Experience & Express to tell stories without any resistance.

Can my body become a tool to express myself through stories?

We at Katha Arts emphasise on bringing in various traditional art forms to facilitate the individual in telling his/her story in the best possible way.

For this we propose to expose the individual to three different traditional forms.

Yoga - for connecting the body with the breath and hence becoming more aware of One’s Self.

Martial Arts - Kalari & Silambam the ancient martial art forms of India emphasise a lot on going with the flow and yet keeping the flow in control.

Theatre - provides a safer environment where one can explore the unknown territories of One’s Self and experiment with new responses.

Ganapathi is not only an expert in these traditional martial art forms, he is also an excellent yoga master. He combines and teaches all these three wellness art forms and calls it as creative martial arts. Ganapathi is a teacher par excellence. He is patient with you and teaches you in a manner which encourages you to explore your innate capabilities at your own pace.

Learning Kalari under Ganapathy master has been an incredible experience. His classes have helped me discover courage, patience and imbalances within me. I would like quote one personal experience from his classes: He made me get used to the warrior stance for many days in a row. Initially I felt a lot of discomfort doing similar set of stances, however it became better eventually. Standing in the warrior pose has helped me a lot in my personal and professional life. I feel a lot more confident and stable in my actions. I can see its direct impact with my thought process, action and execution! To sum it up, Kalari with Ganapathy master has been about - Body, Breath and the mind! Its a river of spectacular poses and he enables us to make meaning with them in our own way!

I wanted to mention that these days, when the opposite of good customer and tech support tends to be the norm, it’s always great having a team like you guys at Fancy! So, be sure that I’ll always spread the word about how good your product is and the extraordinary level of support that you provide any time there is any need for it.

Kalari for me is the alignment of the body and the mind. Kalari master Ganapathy is a wholesome experience as we start with yoga first which is very helpful in the kalari class. I am very eager and enthused in attending kalari.
