In the shadow of Angkor Wat, Antonio Graceffo travels to Siem Reap, Cambodia to train with Pirum, the lead instructor at the first major Bokator academy outside of Phnom Penh. Grand Master San Kim Saen had a vision of sending emissaries to all of the corners of Cambodia, and eventually all over the world, to help spread and preserve the ancient Cambodian martial art. The school in Siem Reap is extremely important because Siem Reap enjoys more than twenty times as much tourism as Phnom Penh. The Siem Reap school is the one more likely to be visited by foreign students. If you go to see Angkor Wat, please stop by and see Pirum. You can take some lessons, see a demonstration or stay and do serious study, earning a first certificate in Bokator.
