THE STORY BEHIND OUR LOGO
THE SYMBOLISM OF THE LOGO
Our logo is a reflection of the deep-rooted values and traditions of Kalaripayattu, the ancient Indian martial art form, intertwined with the philosophy of Tantra. It encapsulates the essence of our Kommunity, where every element has a profound meaning:
COLOURS AND CONNECTION
Black and Red: These colors symbolize the connection between Kalari and Tantra. The duality and balance they represent are central to our philosophy.
FLOW AND CO-EXISTENCE
Wave-like Lines: The flowing lines in our logo represent the seamless flow of energy. They crisscross communities and practices, highlighting the essence of coexistence and interconnectedness. Just as waves merge and diverge, our community thrives on diversity and unity.
FOCUS AND TRADITION
Red Dot: This element signifies the mind-body focus and the rich traditions that Kalaripayattu is rooted in. It represents concentration, discipline, and the inner journey every practitioner undertakes.
THE ESSENCE OF 'K'
Kommunity with a K: The unique spelling emphasizes Kalaripayattu and Kindness, foundational pillars of our community. The left side doodle ingeniously forms the letter ‘K,’ symbolizing our dedication to these values.
GROUNDEDNESS AND GROWTH
Tree Trunk Representation: The waves also symbolize the trunk of a tree, illustrating the deep-rooted nature of Kalaripayattu. It signifies how grounded and solid the martial art form is, providing a strong foundation for growth and learning.
SELF DISCOVERY
Red Dot as Self-Focus: Beyond physical practice, the red dot also represents the journey of self-discovery. It’s about finding yourself and understanding your true potential through the art of Kalaripayattu.
PHILOSOPHICAL INSIGHT
‘When the Body Becomes the Eye’: This phrase captures the essence of Kalaripayattu’s philosophy, where heightened awareness and physical mastery lead to profound insights. The logo encapsulates this transformation, illustrating the journey from physical training to spiritual enlightenment.
At Kommunity, our logo is more than just a visual representation. It’s a narrative of our values, our journey, and the philosophy that binds us together. We invite you to join us, explore this ancient martial art, and become part of a community where tradition meets contemporary practice, and where every member finds their path to self-discovery and growth.
