LOCKS

Locks also known as Chin Na's in Kung Fu and  also present in Kalaripayattu are system of techniques in which opponent is locked and seized. It means opponent is locked in such a painful condition that opponent cannot move and hit back.

​

Locks are used in two different ways. One in defensive way and other in offensive way. 

​

Defensive way teaches one to only lock the opponent  and adjust the pain according to the situation and opponent skills. It means if opponent is more skilled in martial techniques then more painful lock has to be applied else one can counter the lock applied. These locks are helpful where one do not wants to injure his opponent/ enemy or do not want to take out the blood from his/her body. These are applied in general situation where one just want to defend himself/herself from an attacker.
