Qinna (Chin Na)
The Art of Joint Locking
with Sam Chin

This weekend we will study Qinna (Chin Na), the art of joint locking.
Traditionally part of all Chinese styles, today knowledge of Qinna has
become rare.

Rather than focusing on specific techniques, Sam Chin will introduce us
to a variety of entries, from which all locking techniques become
possible.

By focusing on a handful of entries and developing familiarity with the
structure of the body, the practice of Qinna develops the ability to
react spontaneously to attacks, following the opponent's force instead
of attempting to find a specific lock.

Here is what you will learn this weekend:
