Nice kthakali show. Finding the place was a bit difficult as it's inside and the booking office at the location printed in tickets is closed earlier. Overall good experience

Visited Yodha cultural village today . Our India is full of talent. Thank you Yodha for keeping our culture alive . Martial art team - Nidhi , Mahesh , Saran , Sanoj , every one were just so amazing. The fire ring stunts were just too too good. Gave goosebumps I request everyone to must come for this show . Kathakali - the explanation they gave , involvement of guests and the expression was out of the world. Not to be missed for sure

We watched both the Kathakali and Kalaripayittu show at Yodha Cultural Village. The Kathakali performance was good and the artists performed very well. They also allow photo session with the artists free of cost post the performance. We were just disappointed when the tabla artists refused to take photo since he was busy taking others photo. We just wanted to show appreciation for all but he seemed very rude. The Kalaripayittu show started a little slow - we all were confused what's happening and why artists are coming and going in 2 mins. They show have a detailed explanation to the audience so people know what's happening. The show picked up in the 2nd half with amazing stunts and the best part was the fire show. They also invited audience participation which was also good. All in all, good show but can be choreographed better. All artists are very talented - they can be used better with newer equipment's.

Really exciting high-energy performance by a group of talented martial artists. It felt quite brutal at times. Finished with fire and flaming hoops which is always a win!

It was really entertaining. It showed us the cultural values of Thekkady as well as it has such an amazing spice market.

At this center the culturally rich events makes visiting Thekkady worth while and more enjoyable. It is advised to get the tickets booked for the evening well in advance so that one gets the front row seats for the event. Reach half an hour early to see the make up of the Kathakali artists and the stage preparation for 5 to 6 pm show. The process they go through before the performance is very interesting and humbling. It would make you appreciate the dance form and the culture. In the last one gets the opportunity to be photographed with artists. The same goes for the martial art event from 6 to 7. The effort they take to demonstrate the martial art is just amazing. It is a visual treat.
