Eagle Claw is the English name of Yīng Zhǎo Quán, (鷹爪拳) a Chinese martial art which specializes in claw-like grabbing techniques (Chin Na) with the fingers.
Eagle Claw masters have fiercely strong fingers which are the main emphasis in Eagle Claw training. Usually in Kung Fu movies the evil character in the movie is an Eagle Claw master because of its fierce power and lethal moves. Most Eagle Claw techniques are applied to acupressure points and vital areas on the human body. These techniques are designed to incapacitate, maim, or kill the opponent.
