Kod Rad Fad Wiang: the ancient system of wrestling holds and unbalancing techniques created by Siamese
Masters over the centuries. This volume presents, for the very first time, the complete technical curriculum
of the Siamese art of seizing, holding, unbalancing and striking the opponent. Only a fraction of this
complex set of techniques is still used in professional Muay Thai competitions. On the contrary, many holds
and their martial applications have fallen into disuse and are at risk of being forgotten forever. This book
was written with the intent of preserving a fundamental part of traditional Muay’s technical heritage from
oblivion.
