C. M. Sherif Gurukkal in the Kalari
Beginners will be able to lay the foundations of the practice on a level that would take weeks or months in a normal class setting. For advanced students it will offer deep immersion, unique forms and exercises not commonly taught in daily classes or workshops outside of India.In addition a limited number of Kalari Treatments and Massages will be offered, greatly enhancing the evolution of the practitioners physical and spiritual body, and offering therapeutics for those who may need healing.
This very special retreat will happen in Latvia at a retreat centre deep in the beautiful countryside, with pools, saunas, steam baths and a pond for swimming, all just steps from the living quarters. Kalari-Sangham has teamed up with Shivas Centre in Riga (Latvia) for this event, and in addition to the fantastic accommodations, the cooking staff from the Shivas Centre will accompany us on the retreat and provide delicious Ayurvedic meals cooked fresh three times a day.
