Not only is he an experienced and qualified Ayurvedic practitioner, he is also traditionally trained in the martial art of Kalaripayattu and its healing art, Kalari chikitsa.

In Kerala in Southern India, the Kalaripayattu master plays the dual role of a martial arts teacher and healer. They treat the kalari students and the general public for their injuries and pain-related conditions.

Master Biju continues this practice in Brisbane where he is sought out for his traditional knowledge and practical approach to Ayurveda, Kalari chikitsa and Kalaripayattu.

Master Biju grew up in a rural village in Kerala in Southern India. In 1996, he began learning the martial art of Kalaripayattu and its healing art Kalari chikitsa under his village’s Kalari master, Suji Master.

After seven years with his Master, he went on to study with his Grandmaster, Guru Balachandran Nair (Satguru Hanuman Das), through the Gurukula system. Here he was completely immersed in the martial and healing art by living, learning and working at the Kalari full time for four years.

Master Biju is a certified Ayurvedic and Panchakarma therapist through the respected Dhanwanthari Ayurvedic Hospital in Thodupuzha, Kerala. He also has an Advanced Diploma of Ayurveda and a Diploma of Remedial Massage from Australia. He has treated patients in Ayurvedic clinics and traditional centres in Kerala, Bangalore and Brisbane.
