Reportage loose consciousness, as well as the influence it has on the normal body ' s energy transmission cycle and, above all, the possibility of modulating with extreme precision the effect of techniques, turns this discipline into a very " dangerous and deadly " one. On the other hand, the ability to carry out some techniques with millimetric precision permits as well to neutralize the oponent without causing him permanent damage. In order to exploit to the maximum the potential of the system, an expert in Chin ' na necessarily must have both a good knowledge of human anatomy and a deep understanding of the laws regulating the body energy flow throughout the channels or meridians. This link between Martial Arts and Traditional Chinese Medicine, particularly Acupuncture and Digitopressure, represents another trait of this system, that can succesfully exploit the Acupuncture points through pressure or percussion to neutralize the opponent( DIM MAK or DIAN XUE).

In the Chin ' na, being in harmony with one ' s energies and being sensitive to the balance Ying and Yang on the concept of full and empty related to actions, will permit us to act using the Ch ' i in our actions and avoiding energy dispersions and useless movements, to handle and control the opponent ' s strengt. This principle is expressed in a superlative way in traditional exercises like the Tui Shou of Tai Chi o Pa Kwa, the Chi Sao of Wing Chun, or the Chi Lap of Tang Lang, where there are similar laws which are common to most teachers, as:
Fu = make the breath circulate in the body and shift it towards the opponent, controlling him. Gai = wrap the strength of the opponent, be sensitive to his energies. Dui = know the objective to be attained, follow the path of the natural technique; it will the oponent himself the one to trace the route of our victory. Dun = absorb and transform the oponent ' s energy The secret is always in the vital breath. The same concepts are expressed in the Japanese term Ju( yield, softness), important root of arts like Judo and Ju Jitsu, or the concept of Ai-Ki( unification of energies) in the art of Aikido, all of them disciplines that trace back their origins in the ancient and classical Chinese techniques.
