About The Academy
Porkalai Silambam Naagam 16 is more than a martial arts school — it is a living cultural institution operating under the Indian Martial Arts Training School in the heart of Chennai, Tamil Nadu.
Founded on the timeless principles of Silambam — one of India's most ancient fighting arts dating back over 5,000 years — and complemented by structured Karate training, our academy preserves these disciplines while making them accessible to every generation.
What truly distinguishes us is our Grand Master's commitment to Life Education. The classroom extends beyond physical technique — cultivating respect, perseverance, mental resilience, and a service-minded spirit in every student. Our art is never commercialized; it is shared from the heart.
