For Kalaripayattu Training, Stage shows and workshops, 

kalaripayattu- The first Martial art is A Indian form of martial art, and the beauty of this art is. that it's not a creation of a man, but its a creation of  GODS themselves.
IT is carefully constructed with the sharp observations made on the complexities of nature and survival instincts, prey techniques, and basic anatomy of wild animals.

What sets Kalari apart is its method of teaching.

It follows the ancient method of imparting lessons by following the guru -shishya parampara. in Kalari, The skill of combat and weaponry is not taught to the student immediately. The First lesson is involved in gaining patience and the right conduct to become eligible for learning 
The guru silently observes his every shishya and promotes them into learning the warfare techniques only when he is satisfied by their character.

In Kalari, the ultimate goal of a gurukkal is not to produce the best fighters in the world but to produce the selfless, courageous human beings into society. People, often ask me about the relevance of the weaponry training in this art now It is a thoroughly thought-out structure that is applicable even in today's modern times.   

Like for eg.
The "sword and shield weapon forming a part of the 3rd stage of kalaripayattu training, in sharp weapons, known as angathari, its choreographed basic fighting routine is actually taken from the fight between an elephant and a tiger. It consists of the swift, use of sharpness, ruthlessness, and speed in its every move and attack. Through this weapon training, the student learns to be attentive, alert, aware of his surroundings, and become fierce inside -out.

The practitioner's survival instincts are awakened by weapon mock Fighting, and constant practicing to such a level that it leads to the transformation of his whole body language where his bare arm becomes and acts like a sword in times of need.

Thus, The lesson in weapon training in Kalari leads to an incomparable defensive preparedness of a  practitioner.  Adding on to its uniqueness,
There is a complete in-depth therapeutic branch of Ayurveda attached to Kalari. It consists of massages and vital point treatments of a body, Irrespective of the fact that you're a martial artist or not. The secret to the healthy and proper functioning of all the organs and parts of your body lies in this field of therapy.

Basically,  The lesson to hurt and rectify that hurt both are imparted to the practitioner of Kalari. And that's the power of it.!!!!
Because of these, and various other reasons kalarippayattu still..stands tall,  even in today's modern world.
It will never lose its relevance because it's not just a martial art...but a complete way of life
