Shaolin Chin Na: The
Seizing Art of Kung-Fu
by Yang Jwing-Ming
In
the Chinese language, chin na roughly translates into
two words: "chin" -to seize, and "na"
-to control. Thus, the major purpose of chin na is to
quiet or stop an aggressive action without maiming or
injuring to a serious extent. As a result, chin na
relies on grasping, pressing and unnaturally twisting
the sensitive parts of an opponent's body such as
nerves, muscles, and joints
