In India only a few people respect martial arts.. Most of the time it is ridiculed.. It's funny that many indians don't know a damn thing about kalaripaittu but talk about kung fu and karate...as they are professional

Here if you want to learn a martial art you have very few options..

I finally found a master who has learnt knows his art and has real passion for it

oh cool nice to meet ya. i want to visit India one day...ive always been fascinated with the culture. closest thing i got is some Indians on my Mom's side of the Family who are from Trinidad lol. im currently studying Indian spirituality from an elderly Friend

hes from Bangladesh if im not mistaken. took me under his wing

i didnt know martial arts had a reputation like that though....wow do u see it improving? or staying the same?
