He has made great contributions in spreading authentic Chinese martial arts world wide. However, unless one has experience It is difficult to actually learn chin na from his books. Joint locks are difficult and require complex motor movement unlike striking. Only after one has become proficient in striking should one focus on joint locks for practical self defense.
