REVIEWS

Expert Instruction From a World-Renowned Master, A Customer (Amazon reviewer) February, 2004

This DVD offers deep and personal instruction from one of the world's foremost authorities on the topic of Chin Na grappling. Developed in China over several thousand years of history, Chin Na is the root of all other grappling.

...The quality and attention to detail of this training is unsurpassed, which truly makes it possible to fine tune each of these techniques until they are highly effective, after proper training. Few masters of Chinese martial arts reveal as much information on any topic as does Master Yang, and for that we owe him a debt of gratitude. The cost of the DVDs is much less than the VHS courses combined, and also much less than the cost of a personal seminar. This in-depth training is nearly impossible to find anywhere else in the world. Combined with the advanced DVD authoring and hours of extras, subtitles and previews, this is an extremely valuable DVD. Again, thanks to Master Yang for keeping this ancient art alive.

For any martial artist interested in joint locking techniques, the Chin Na In Depth series by Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming is a fabulous resource. For those that can't learn from Dr. Yang directly, this is the next best thing. It is also a great set for those that are fortunate enough to attend a seminar and want a reference to review. These DVDs are just like being with Dr. Yang at a seminar, but without the opportunity to ask questions. This DVD, and the other two in the series, are fantastic references for any martial art video library.
