  Chin Na - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While techniques along the lines of chin na are trained to some degree by most martial arts worldwide, many Chinese martial arts are famous for their specialization in such applications.
Chin means to seize or trap, na means to lock or break, and while those actions are very often executed in that order (trap then lock), the two actions can also be performed distinctly in training and self defense.
There is quite a bit of overlap between chin na theory and technique with the branches of traditional Chinese medicine known as tui na (推拏) as well as the use of offensive and defensive Qi Gong as an adjunct of chin na training in some styles.

Qin na means "seize and control." Simplified, qin na is the study of joint locks which include locks, throws, striking, kicking, arm bars (which to my shock were not invented in a judo dojo in Brazil--who knew?), neck breaks and leg locks, standing or on the ground.
Chi na may have been taught as a style but it is very rare anywhere (as far as i know) And i believe alot of chi nah depends on the teacher and whether his teacher was taught the applications of chi nah etc. chi nah is included in many forms as an underlying element.

 Chin Na
As is the case more often than not, however, the chin na techniques are cleverly hidden within the forms; a regular practice typical of Chinese Kung Fu in general, which is a shame, because these techniques typically contain the most advance aspect of any given style.
Chin na also includes the skill of attacking; seizing is a more accurate term, specific pressure points on the body that will disable an opponent very rapidly, and quite painfully.
The skill of chin na seizing has been somewhat lost today because of the long hours and intense training required to develop the tremendous strength in the fingers, hands and forearms of the practitioner to actually perform seizing.
