How to Control Anybody with Joint Locks 2 Tape Set
Kenpo Black Belt Confesses . . .
"The First Time I Experienced Chin Na I Hurt My Knees from Dropping to the Floor so Fast!"
It’s true. Chin Na, done right, can drop a man to his knees in pain.
I already had a Black Belt in Kenpo and I had moved to Washington, D.C. Once I’d found a job and a place to live it was time to take up martial arts again.
My previous training had been in a fairly standard American dojo with group classes taught by American instructors.
I decided I wanted to learn in “traditional” setting . . . so I began asking around Washington’s Chinatown.
Everyone – that is, all the Chinese shop keepers I asked – said the best Kung Fu man in Chinatown was Chao Chi Liu. He had a little school not far from the Arch at 7th and H Streets, and I began taking lessons there.
Most of the training was on form, kicks, and sparring and it was all private lessons.
It wasn’t long before I noticed that “Sifu” Liu taught some of the students a method of joint control called Chin Na (literally Grab/Lock – they grab you, you lock them)
I asked one of the other students how to get Sifu to teach me Chin Na and the student said to just ask him how to get out of any hold and he’d show me. It seemed simple enough so I went to Sifu’s office and asked him if he’s show me how to counter a simple diagonal wrist grab.
Sifu said “Okay, you grab me.” Keep in mind, Sifu Liu was a man in his late fifties who stood no more than 5’4” or so. I was 6’1.”
Anyway, I grabbed Sifu’s right wrist with my right hand, screamed, and both my knees hit the floor. I actually did scream and Sifu and some of the other students who were watching looked a little embarrassed because the key of that particular scream was a bit higher than what is generally considered masculine.
Then he taught me what he had done.
After that, I was hooked on Chin Na, but faced with the dilemma of how to learn the techniques and survive. I learned a lot of them from other students, but most of them from Sifu – and even the ones I learned from other students I eventually asked Sifu for the details of.
That was years ago. Since then I’ve learned a Chin Na for every grab I could think of, include gun, knife and club attacks, and the result is a great curriculum for my students.
That curriculum is now on tape
I’ve bought my share of technique tapes over the years and I know the advantages and pitfalls. I’ve been disappointed many times by how little the tapes actually teach.
Most tapes will show you a dozen or so techniques, my Chin Na tapes teach you about twenty technique on each tape
Each Chin Na is demonstrated with careful attention to detail so you can make it work.
Not only will you get a mountain of material allowing you to quickly counter, control and crush an opponent, you also learn the details of what really "drives" the technique.
Here are some of the techniques you'll learn:
- 2 straight, and 2 diagonal wrist grabs – I don’t just show you how to get instant control, I show you how to position yourself so you avoid punches and kicks while doubling your leverage
- Double wrist grabs front and rear – these include throws and joint breaks
- A raised hand grab and an inverted grab – how to use just your elbow to lever a man to the floor
- 2 shoulder grabs (with hidden strikes) – backfist him on the way up, elbow him on the way down
- Double front and rear shoulder grabs (with variation) – when he’s on his back with your knee on his ribs and his elbow a half inch from leaving the socket he’ll realize his mistake.
- Every kind of choke anticipation, escape, and counter you'll ever need – I’ve seen some good techniques for these, but I believe mine have a few details that keep you out of trouble
- A real nice two person hammerlock drill –the classic bully grab with an ironic counter
Continue what you began in Chin Na I, with Chin Na II
Not only will you get the same quality of detailed demonstration . . . this time we give you twenty-four techniques!
Here are a few of the attacks you’ll learn to defeat:
bear hugs, kicks and punches, hair grabs, pushes and tackles, headlocks, a full nelson, gun, knife, and club with variations, a come along, and we end with a smooth way to deal with someone trying to "grind your knuckles" when they shake your hand.
When I used to teach private Introductory Lessons, I'd often ask the student to think of any grab defense they wanted to learn. I was able to give them free reign like that because I knew I could counter any grab they could think of. And I did.
