Shaolin Chin Na


 Having a back ground in Judo and Japanese Jiu Jitsu, I've always enjoyed joint manipulation techniques, submissions, and techniques designed to control your opponent. There are so many techniques and different ways to locks up a joint by applying a tremendous amount of pressure with little effort, and for the most part these techniques are simple to learn. Due to this, they are an excellent tool and addition to anyones self defence arsenal, regardless of strength or size. Techniques of this nature are found in many different arts, from many different countries, and tend to be similar. So even if your back ground is in Japanese arts, Korean arts, Chinese arts, or whatever else, you should be able to understand joint locking techniques from any art one you have a base in locks and submissions.

 Today I'm posting an interesting video detailing over 30 "Chin Na" locks and controlling techniques from Shaolin Kung Fu. Check it out and enjoy!
