Kalari with Gerhard Schmid
Gerhard found the practice of Kalari in 1999. After a hard training he felt energized and more present, rather than depleted as he had with previous types of training. Since then he has trained up to six months every year with his teacher C. M. Sherif Gurukal in Kerala/India. He is a certified instructor (Ashan) of the Kerala Kalarippyat Academy in Kannur / Kerala and teaches at his studio in Hamburg/Germany and around the world. Gerhard has completed ten years of traditional 12-year-"gurukkula"-education and is one of the few Westerners trained and permitted to teach all three styles of Kalarippayat.
