About us
Thank
you very much for visiting the website of “Sangam Institute of Indian Martial Arts” I’m
a manager, Satoru
T. SANGAM is the non profit
organization established for promoting international cultural exchange
through martial arts practice in grass roots level. We are now trying to take
government registration in As mentioned in other pages,
Indian martial arts have given much influence on Asian culture and martial
arts, technically, ideologically, and religiously in the history. In spite of that, its fame and
popularity are very less than other Asian martial arts like Karate, Judo and
Kung-fu. We wish that through the
activity of SANGAM Institute, the importance of Indian martial arts will be
recognized by martial arts enthusiast all over the world, and someday, many
young generations will take part in real practice, make great bridge over the
cultural gap between India and abroad. All
contents in the site are the real information from my direct experiences
in India That’s
why every “comment” is just personal
opinion, but nothing more. Basically all photograph was
taken by myself, but very few pieces are presented by Master. The real
feature of Indian martial arts are not well known by people,
so we will emphasize to show the visual images of photos and videos.
The
contents on the site are derived from several researches done in the period from November 2005 to March
2008. Every
data include price is always changing, so please reconfirm those
information by direct enquire to the schools before you visit there. We will do the best about
correctness of the data, but you should know that nobody is perfect in this
world ! If you would like to make
contact with us in relation of Indian martial arts, please send us e-mail
with your name and address. Personally, I would like to
introduce stick rotating technique. Among many kinds of other techniques, it’s some kind of a common language of all
over India, and has much benefit not only for bodily growth and health, but
also for every kind of athletes as a basic exercise. I call it “Dharma Chakra Drive” or “Bharatia Stick Art”, with its historical back ground. I
suppose that the technique was popularized all over India with Buddhist
movement because of its feature symbolizes the Dharma Chakra Rotation which
was the very symbol of Buddha himself and important idea of Hindu too.(That’s why, Dharma Chakra is set in the center
of Indian national flag nowadays) If somebody interested, please
send me e-mail. |
