About Us

Angampora was created as an art of war and of living well. It is crucial to acknowledge these roots to understand the immeasurable value this practice brings to our day-to-day life. In ancient times, warriors trained to protect the dignity and goodness of their people, their land and their way of life. During periods of peace they trained their bodies and minds to perfection, using their creativity and wisdom to serve, inspire and help keep their families and communities strong and healthy on all levels. During times of trouble they were called upon to do whatever was needed to help preserve this balance. It is essential for the warrior to cultivate not only physical fitness but courage, wisdom, fairness, kindness, equanimity and discernment.
