This photo taken on May 25, 2024 shows ancient Khmer martial art Yutkromkhorm master Nak Rinda (2nd L) showing a fighting technique with his student during a training session at his club in Krong Areyksat. The ancient Khmer combat martial art of Yutkromkhorm was largely forgotten after many of its masters were killed in a purge of intellectuals under the communist Khmer Rouge between 1975 and 1979, but a group of young Cambodians are determined to learn its techniques and keep their heritage alive.
