What comes next?

Going further on the path of the abhyasi* (that's what a Kalari practitioner is called), will require you to buy a SILVER or a GOLD pass.


The GOLD pass will give you a monthly subscription and include all our content and LIVE services.


With a SILVER pass, all classes can be paid for separately, as and when you are ready for them and you will have lifetime access to them online, so you can go through them as many times as you want.

Senior Teacher, Kalari Lab Online


What are students say

Alex, Germany

Try and you will feel.

The online training and the videos are very professional and easy to follow. Adam gives his students also an opportunity to get in touch with him. He is really teaching and he gives his heart for the growth of his students.It is more then „just“ content.

Also the opportunity to connect the online training with a live retreat is extremely good.Try it and you will feel.

Kalarilab - it's a must!

Kalarilab it's just what I was looking for! It has a greatly well structured online program, and Guru Adam is such a great teacher that it seems that you are training side by side with him. My body has become more flexible in just a couple of weeks and I'm learning so much from their Science & Secret video lectures.

Excellent online Kalari training

Adam is an excellent teacher, knowledgeable and passionate about Kalari, and patient with new students.

I’m enjoying learning Kalari online, I can go at my own pace and I find the classes are a good mix of challenge and incremental steps. I love practising the forms and always feel strong, grounded and present afterwards.

An authentic lineage

Adam Phillips has been practising Kalari for almost 20 years, first encountering the practice as an actor in training. In 2001, he visited India and became a student of Gurukkal CM Sherif at Kerala Kalarippayattu Academy (KKA) in Kerala. Since then he has become a senior teacher of the school, and is now one of the most experienced non-Indian practitioners of the art, leading workshops in UK, Poland, Serbia, Czech Republic, Russia, Greece and Italy.


Kalari Lab

In 2016 he relocated to Ko Pha Ngan island in Thailand and founded Kalari Lab as a centre for teaching, treatment and research into the martial and healing art of Kalari. Since then several hundred students have trained and received treatment at Kalari Lab and the centre is now becoming well recognised and receiving students from all over the world.


Kalari Lab Online

In response to the request of many of his students, Adam has created Kalari Lab Online: an online learning environment, the first online virtual school and what is becoming the first online encyclopedia of the techniques within Kalarippayattu. Kalari Lab Online has been designed to provide ongoing support to existing and future students of Kalari and to form a strong and vibrant community of practitioners, to bring cohesion and motivation to students globally.
