IannàTampé

"IannàTampé" was founded in 2006.
Our Cultural Association came to life like a beautiful phoenix from the ashes of a previous project called "Pas Pasa Pan".
IannàTampé is the result of a long and fertile evolutionary journey.
Our group is made up of young artists: jugglers, actors, singers and musicians from different nationalities and cultures.
All of us are brought together by our deep passion for street arts in its various expressions.
During the last years we've travelled the world spreading the magic of street arts through juggling, music and the ancient charm of Fire!We're honoured to number, among our experiences and collaborations, a four-months workshop c/o the Maruthi Marma Chikilsa & Kalari Sangham school in Trivandrum - Kerala, South India.
The school was founded in 1957 by P. Thankappan Assan Guru and it's now run by his son Ajith Kumar.
This school focuses on Kalarippayattu:
the most ancient martial art of KERALA and said to be the Mother of all Martial Arts!
It incorporates strikes, kicks, grappling, martial dance, and weaponry, as well as healing techniques.
Kalarippayattu is a source of knowledge.
It helps developing the co-ordination of both body and mind,it's a healthy way of growing as a person as well as an artist.
Concentration, coordination, memory, rhythm, expressiveness, power and strength...
