Chin Na is the set of joint lock techniques used in the Chinese martial arts to control or lock an opponent’s joints or muscles/tendons so they cannot move.

This Workshop will be the first of a 4-part series.  In this Workshop we will be covering different lineages of Chin Na.  We will cover techniques from the Shaolin 32 Lock System, Northern White Crane, Tai Chi, Xing Yi and Bagua. From these systems we will demonstrate how their style of Chin Na was designed to counter other fighting styles and turn it to their advantage.

The Workshop will cover:

·       Hand strength and power building techniques from the different styles.

·       Footwork and angles to apply the techniques.

·       Bridging techniques.

·       Specific locks from each of the styles.

·       A cross comparison of the styles and their fighting principles so that you may blend these techniques with your Wing Chun or any other system of combat.

Beginner through advanced students welcome to attend!

Chum Kiu means searching for the bridge.  A bridge is created when one of your arms makes contact with the arm of the opponent.  Chum Kiu can also be looked on as the “bridge” between the hand motions of the first form and the emergency motions of the third form. Chum Kiu adds and develops three more energies.  These are forward momentum, pulling momentum and turning momentum.  These energies add significant power to all Wing Chun techniques through coordinated movement of the body along both linear and circular paths.  Practicing Chum Kiu will lead to a heightened awareness and understanding of the ways in which these movements enhance and magnify natural body power “chi”.  The nature of this form is to train your body balance by playing the form.  The more you practice this form the better your balance will be.  Chum Kiu is a bridge to a greater understanding of the Wing Chun system.

In this Workshop we will cover practical applications to the Chum Kiu form as it relates to modern day combat.

The Workshop will cover:

 ·       Form

·       Application

·       Fighting Combinations

·       Chi Sao
