They 'trans'cend gender barriers to master Silambam | Coimbatore News

Coimbatore: Twenty city-based trans women who are learning Silambam, an ancient martial art of Tamil Nadu, aspire to excel in the discipline and earn medals one day.
Twenty-four-year-old Anushiya, a taxi driver by profession, said she and her friends got in touch with several NGOs to learn the martial art form. “They help us with jobs and education, but have not given importance to sports so far. We tried to contact some Silambam masters on our own, but they avoided us,” she told TOI.
Mangaiyanavan Foundation, a group of seven physical education teachers who joined hands to introduce sports to transgender people across the state, reached out to Anushiya through newsreader Padmini. “We met the NGO people in January. Though we wanted to learn Kabaddi and Silambam, they suggested we learn throwball first,” said Anushiya. “It felt great, because it boosted our alertness, fitness and general energy level.”
