Salepage: Seizing and Grasping Attacks – A Deeper Understanding

This
martial art DVD continues the documentation of the application methods
of Yin Style Bagua’s lion system. In Yin Style Baguazhang, the lion
system represents the pure yang of the Qian trigram with fierce,
violent, and direct attacks. But the last two of its attacking methods,
seizing and grasping, could be thought of as “the yin within the yang,”
as they require a high degree of sensitivity to, and ability to
manipulate, the opponent’s force.Seizing (qin) and grasping (na)
are seen as one and the same in many Chinese martial arts. However, Yin
Style Bagua treats them separately: seizing techniques aim to control
the opponent such that he cannot use strength to resist, whereas
grasping techniques are intended to damage or maim the opponent, thereby
ending the fight.This video is intended for practitioners
already familiar with the fourteen seizing and grasping forms of the
Qian trigram lion system. Techniques are chosen from each of these forms
and discussed with explanations of hand and body movement, stepping,
and use of force to give a deeper understanding of their intricacies.
Examples of combining various seizing and grasping techniques are also
given.He Jinbao began his study of Yin Style Bagua with Dr. Xie
Peiqi in 1971. He has dedicated himself to training, teaching, and
documenting this art with the hope that future generations of
practitioners will carry on its remarkable power and effectiveness.
