Synopsis:

Chin Na is one of the four major fighting categories in all Chinese martial styles.

 

The four categories are:

• Kicking (Ti)
• Striking (Da)
• Wrestling (Shuai)

Pressing and striking Chin Na can be used to seal the opponents breathing, vein/artery, or Qi circulation, which can cause severe pain, numbness, and unconsciousness.
