Chin Na (Joint Locking)
Chin Na is the controlling art of Chinese Kung Fu and is the
root of many non-Chinese martial styles such as the Japanese
arts of Jujutsu and Aikido. Capture skills ( Chin Na )
are a kind of close combat skills used to subdue the enemy with
skillful movements and ingenious exertion of strength and can
be applied to any empty hand fighting discipline.. The basic
principle in capturing the enemy is to seize and attack pressure
points and lock joints to render an attacker helpless by not only
having total control of a part of the body but also of the entire
body.
Although Chin Na techniques are believed to have existed for
several thousand years, it was not until 527 C.E. that these
techniques were systematically researched and catagorized by the
Shaolin Temple, leading to the creation of many non-lethal
techniques. By the late Ching Dynasty, in the nineteenth century,
Chin Na techniques were taught to the general population contained
within the various martial styles developed at the Temple. Training
in Chin Na is through partner practice with emphasis on developing
the control and sensitivity necessary to render an attacker
helpless but uninjured. As this is primarily a pain/compliance art,
students must be willing to accept some pain in order to learn the
art.
