That’s the old Chinese adage that first came to mind when I read a recent blog post on injuries. We thought now would be a good time to re-post it since the weather is getting warmer and more outdoor sports will soon be getting underway. "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.Note: this is a re-post of a blog Amy wrote for Twin Town CrossFit a while back. He was the chief martial arts instructor at China People's Police Officer Academy and for the last 40 years has taught Qin Na and martial arts to police and military personnel and elite bodyguards. Master Zao Da Yuan is a Ba Gua Zhang disciple of Li Zi Ming and studied a family system of Qin Na with Zhang Jin. These books contains hundreds of photos illustrating the techniques and principles. Part 3 presents Qin Na solo forms and their combat applications as well as Qin Na weapons forms. Practical Qin Na Part 2: Foundational Training, Techniques and Methods (coming in early 2016) details the training methods for developing the inner Gong Fu that is critical to the correct performance of Qin Na, as well as all of the basic and advanced techniques, including throwing and defenses against weapons.
Without these elements one cannot grasp the real Gong Fu and can merely learns a collection of tricks and individual techniques. This book openly presents the theoretical underpinnings, subtle principles and training methods of Qin Na that were previously only taught to favored disciples. Master Zhao deftly decodes and explains the hidden meanings contained in the secret poems of the Nine Heaven Text, integrating ancient concepts with modern anatomy, physiology and sports science, so that the art of Qin Na can continue to grow and flourish in the modern world.

In a series of coded poems, the text presents the complete theoretical basis of both Qin Na and the internal martial arts, in minute and precise detail: The Nine Heaven Text is an extraordinary contribution to the art of Qin Na and the internal Chinese martial arts. These secrets are contained in the Nine Heaven Secret Text. 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.
