Pages : 340
Book Description
Practical Qin Na Part Two: Foundational Training, Techniques and Methods, the second volume of Master Zhao Da Yuan's magnum opus on the art of Qin Na (Capturing and Seizing), decisively puts the art of Qin Na on the map as complete system of effective self-defense, physical training and internal development. In this book Master Zhao Da Yuan details every aspect of training: Basic training exercises - Methods of developing hand and finger strength - Developing yielding body skills - Proper use of Qin Na training equipment to develop refined power (Jin Li) - Basic techniques: Dead Hand Qin Na - Short Qin Na solo forms and applications - Qin Na throwing techniques - Advanced techniques: Live Hand Qin Na - Defenses against weapons - More than 1,000 photos accompany the text, clearly illustrating all of the techniques and training methods. For centuries, Qin Na was a secret family system, only parts of which were taught to outsiders. After teaching this deadly and effective art to the police, military personnel, and elite bodyguards for more than 40 years, Master Zhao breaks with tradition and openly reveals the real secrets of Qin Na to the general public, including the key theories and foundational training methods that were in the past taught to only one or two disciples in each generation. Some of these secrets were revealed in Practical Qin Na Part 1: Explanation of the Qin Na Nine Heaven Secret Text. In Practical Qin Na Part 2: Foundational Training, Techniques and Methods, Master Zhao shows you how to put theory into practice. His top disciples demonstrate not only the key Qin Na training methods for developing refined strength and skill, but also more than 150 devastating Qin Na techniques. These techniques dynamically illustrate the full scope of the art of Qin Na, with defenses against grabs, punches, kicks, locks and weapon attacks.

Chin Na Fa
Author: Jinsheng Liu
Publisher: Blue Snake Books
ISBN: 9781583941850
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
First published in 1936, this work represents primary source material of ancient combat techniques designed in a time of occupation and war, when the threat of lethal hand-to-hand combat was an ever-present reality for soldiers, those involved in law enforcement, and very often for the ordinary citizen. This is the seminal work in the field, written by the form’s founders, Liu Jinsheng and Zhao Jiang, as a training manual for the Police Academy of Zheijiang province. The intent of this translation is to provide authentic historical documentation for martial arts techniques that have been modified for use today in both competition and self-defense. Submission grappling is a technique in which fighters use locks, chokes, and breaking techniques to defeat their challengers in no-holds-barred matches. Chi Na Fa remains the most comprehensive explanation available of these Chinese grappling techniques, from which derive many current techniques. Renowned author and Brazillian jiu jitsu champion Tim Cartmell presents the book in a clear, compelling new translation.

Nei Gong: the Authentic Classic
Author: Tom Bisio
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781432772246
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
Nei Gong: The Authentic Classic, (Nei Gong Zhen Chuan) is an obscure text of unknown origin, yet it stands alone as the definitive text on internal energy and the generation of internal power. Hand copied, and passed from teacher to student, it is one of the "secret transmissions" of Chinese martial arts. Nei Gong: The Authentic Classic, is a practical manual on internal energy development and its fundamental importance in the martial arts and fa jin (emitting force). It draws heavily on Daoist meditation and alchemical practices which are said to promote health and longevity. The text is divided into four sections: 1. Nei Gong Jing (Internal Energy Classic); 2. Na Gua Jing (Received Trigram Classic); 3. Shen Yun Jing (Transported Spirit Classic); 4. Di Long Jing (Earth Dragon Classic), which are meant to be read in order. In this way the reader is guided step by step through the details of Nei Gong practice, and in the Di Long Jing, its application to self-defense. Translated by a team of experts, the text is accompanied by extensive footnotes and diagrams that clarify the more obscure passages which otherwise pre-suppose a knowledge of Daoist texts and imagery from the I-Ching (Book of Changes). The appendices further explicate the relationship of Nei Gong: The Authentic Classic to the internal martial art Xing Yi Quan.

Ba Gua Nei Gong Volume 5

Publisher: Outskirts Press
ISBN: 9781478746577
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Embedded within the martial art Ba Gua Zhang is a complete system of internal exercises that promote self-healing and longevity and transform consciousness. Ba Gua Nei Gong consists of nine powerful and profound methods of internal exercise and self-cultivation. This book is the fifth in a series of manuals on Ba Gua Nei Gong. It can be used in conjunction with actual instruction in Ba Gua Zhang, or employed as a stand-alone instruction manual. Tian Gan Nei Gong is indispensable to the practice of Ba Gua Zhang and the martial arts in general. The Tian Gan Exercises develop the ability of the legs and waist to generate the torsional spiraling power known as "Silk Reeling" Energy. Tian Gan also trains the correct internal mechanics for many of Ba Gua Zhang's martial actions such as: piercing (chuan), chopping (kan), splitting (pi), drilling (zuan), rolling (gun), pulling (la), leading (ling), seizing (na), covering (gai), overturning (fan), pressing (an), uplifting (tiao), rotating (zhuan), twisting (ning), coiling (chan) and wrapping (guo). Tian Gan literally means "Heavenly Stem." The name Tian Gan refers to the longitudinal energetic axis or stem (the "Central Channel") that passes through the body. In practicing Tian Gan Nei Gong, the spiraling and turning actions of the body and Central Channel, combined with the movements of the arms and legs, stimulate and open the meridians, while simultaneously "wringing out" the spine and its surrounding structures. This helps maintain the health of the spine, the brain and the nervous system. Tian Gan Nei Gong can be an important adjunctive practice method for various types of Daoist meditation, and a useful pre-requisite to Micro-Cosmic Orbit meditation. Ba Gua Spinal Meditation is a unique training method that enables one to sense the subtle internal movements of the spine. A detailed discussion of Spinal Meditation is included in this book because this exercise forms a natural compliment to the Tian Gan
