HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The Natural School (Ziranmen) is renowned not only for its striking but also for its sophisticated and ruthless Catching Skills (Qin Na). Founded by the legendary Du Xinwu, the system was designed for elite protection and high-stakes combat. Master Du Feihu, a 3rd-generation heir and National First-Class Martial Arts Judge, presents this comprehensive 2-DVD set on the school's grappling curriculum. Historically, Ziranmen Qin Na was characterized by its ability to neutralize an opponent's force through superior positioning and leverage, often referred to as 'following the trend' to achieve control. This volume preserves the authentic lineage methods used to subdue adversaries with clinical precision.
TECHNICAL PHILOSOPHY
The technical philosophy of Ziranmen Catching Skills is rooted in the principle of 'Harnessing the Power' (Jie Li). Instead of meeting force with force, the practitioner takes advantage of an opportunity to duck and flank the enemy, utilizing 'Spiral Force' to twine and catch the opponent's limbs. The Technical Routine emphasizes the 'Seven Stars' footwork and the 'Ghost Head Hand' to enter the opponent's gate. The philosophy is to 'Twist the arm and cut the elbow' through a combination of pulling, twisting, and pressing. Master Du Feihu demonstrates how to maintain a state of 'Song' (relaxed alertness) until the moment the lock is applied, ensuring the transition is undetectable to the opponent.
BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS
Biomechanically, Ziranmen Qin Na is a study in leverage and anatomical weak points. Master Du Feihu provides a deep analysis of how to use the Dantian as the pivot for joint manipulation. By applying force to the 'long lever' of an opponent's arm or leg, the practitioner can generate massive torque with minimal muscular effort. The routine covers specialized techniques like the 'Xianglong Elbow' and 'Goat Twisting the Head,' which utilize the Whole-Body Kinetic Chain to concentrate power on a single joint. The training also includes Weapon Disarming mechanics, showing how to use the 'Spring Body' to evade a blade and immediately apply a subduing lock.
PRACTICE AND APPLICATION
Across two discs, this instructional series breaks down the most practical catching and subduing maneuvers. Disc One focuses on elbow techniques and bare-handed Weapon Disarming, while Disc Two delves into hair-grasping, shoulder-hanging, and waist-hugging escapes. Master Du Feihu meticulously explains the 'Form & Applications,' detailing the exact placement of the hands and the direction of the internal force. The training is designed to develop the practitioner's tactile sensitivity and the ability to 'read' an opponent's tension. By practicing these authentic lineage skills, students gain a versatile set of tools for both self-defense and high-level grappling, embodying the efficient and natural combat logic of the Du Xinwu tradition.

Master Du Feihu
3rd Generation Successor of the Ziranmen (Natural Style) Lineage
Du Feihu is a distinguished martial artist and a pivotal figure in the 3rd generation of Ziranmen (the Natural Style). Following in the footsteps of the lineage's legendary founders and grandmasters, he has dedicated his life to the preservation of this unique internal system. He is recognized within the martial arts community for his commitment to maintaining the school’s core principles of spontaneity and practicality, ensuring that the legacy of Ziranmen remains intact in the modern era.
Martial Arts Background: Mastery of the "Natural" Path
Du Feihu’s background is rooted in the rigorous and often unconventional training methods of Ziranmen. His mastery encompasses the system’s foundational "Circle Walking" (Aizeng Bu) and the specialized conditioning required to develop the "Natural Power" (Ziran Jing). His training focused on the integration of internal intent and external movement, emphasizing the school’s philosophy of "moving without a fixed form" and the cultivation of explosive, reflexive force that responds naturally to any combat situation.
Legacy and Contribution: Preservation and Lineage Leadership
As a 3rd generation successor, Du Feihu has played a vital role in the transition of Ziranmen from a historically secretive art to a more structured discipline. He has focused on documenting the specific technical requirements and the "Methodless Method" that define the school. Through his teaching, he has mentored a new generation of practitioners, ensuring that the subtle mechanics and combat logic of the lineage are passed down with technical precision while upholding the traditional martial ethics of his predecessors.
Artistic Style: Fluid Spontaneity and Reflexive Power
His style is characterized by the hallmark Ziranmen aesthetic of "softness on the outside, hardness on the inside." His movements are unscripted and highly adaptable, reflecting the principle that the body should react to an opponent as naturally as a shadow follows a form. In his practice, one can observe a lack of rigid posture, replaced by a fluid, continuous motion that conceals sudden, penetrating strikes. His execution embodies the essence of "Natural"—efficient, unpretentious, and devoid of any unnecessary ornamentation.
