When studying street fighting and self defense, we should be open to accept knowledge from any source.
Many martial arts traditions, even though they originated centuries ago, offer practical and effective fighting techniques that are completely applicable on today's streets.

Take for example Chin Na (or Quinna), the ancient Chinese art of trapping and locking joints.
According to history, Chin Na techniques were first introduced by Chin Gempin in the 1600's.
Without question, common weaponry has changed drastically since those days. The variables of street fighting are not the same as they were back then. But the joints and tendons of the human body remain exactly the same.
Much of Chin Na is just as useful today as it ever was. Chin Na techniques are used by law enforcement, military, and security personnel all over the world, whether they are aware of their origins or not.
The techniques of Chin Na are generally divided into 4 categories:
1.FEN JIN: techniques which tear apart an opponent's muscles or tendons.
2.CUO GU: techniques that misplace the bone (generally applied to the joint)
3.BI QI: techniques that prevent the opponent from inhaling. Applied not only to the windpipe directly, but also to muscles surrounding the lungs.
4.DIAN MAI: techniques which seal or strike blood vessels and "Qi" points.
The beauty of Chin Na techniques is that their execution is based on knowledge of human anatomy, and can be learned and applied by anyone.
By taking advantage common vulnerabilities in the human body we can quickly subdue opponents, even if they outmatch us in size and strength.
Chin Na is anything but outdated. We can benefit tremendously by learning a little about the art and how to apply it in self defense or street fighting situations.
