Shaolin Chin-Na Set 6
HUNGRY TIGER RETURNS TO DEN
餓虎退巢拳

The tiger-claw is famous in Shaolin Kungfu. There are three main functions of the tiger-claw, namely separating tendons, dislocating joints and gripping vital points. The tiger-claw is well represented in this set.

Besides being tricky, the Monkey, surprisingly to some people, is also well-known for chin-na, especially gripping the reproductive sex organs. The Monkey is often found in this set.
