Two of the world's oldest schools of martial arts will unite on stage for the first time in a show that promises to fascinate audiences with their skills and mastery.

The Shaolin Monks from China have united with the Kalari Fighters from India for a new show called the Holy Mountain and which will hit the stage in November.

More than three million people have seen the monks in action and they have performed their show on four continents throughout the last 14 years.

The monks have already been in Malta demonstrating the way they train their mind to take complete control of their body.

But this time they will be joined by the Kalari fighters who practise Kalaripayattu, believed to be among the oldest existing martial art forms.

It dates back more than 2000 years and is said to be the forerunner of popularly known Chinese martial arts, as the Buddhist monk Bodhidharma took this knowledge from India to China.

The show will be held at the Mediterranean Conference Centre on November, 6, 7 and 8 and there is a 25 per cent discount on tickets purchased in August.

Tickets are available from the MCC.
