Rhode Island 2003 Chin Na Self-Defense Event (Chinese Joint Locking & Pressure Points) with Sensei Joseph Caulfield, 5th Dan of Aikido. Joseph Caulfield Sensei is the Founder and Chief Instructor of Black Sword Aikido ( www.blacksword.net ). He was first introduced to the Japanese martial arts through Jujutsu and Karate in 1960. In 1973 he began training in Aikido, Aiki Sword, and Aiki Staff under one of the resident apprentices to the founder of Aikido. In 1978 he began studying the halberd and older styles of sword and staff. After training with some of the greatest Japanese masters of his generation, in 1993 Caulfield Sensei began training in the Chinese art of Shaolin Chin Na under White Crane Master Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming, head of the YMAA ( www.ymaa.com ).Shaolin Chin Na is the root of the arts of Aikido and Jujitsu. It teaches how to control an attacker though joint locks and pressure points. Although many of these Chinese techniques may appear similar to Japanese techniques, their feel is quite unique. Joseph Caulfield, Esq., holds a Teaching Certificate from Dr. Yang, Jwing Ming in Shaolin Chin Na, as well as a Godan in Aikido, Shodan in Kobudo, and Shodan in Naginata. Caulfield Sensei sits on the Testing Committees of several international Aikido organizations and is one of the few instructors certified to teach Chin Na by Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming.
