As a Tai Chi Instuctor who has - at the age of 58 - started to learn Karate - I found this fascinating. Don't know why, but it felt emotional. Thank you.
Jesse - Thanks for conducting this research! I've been studying Hakutsuru White Crane (Gokenki and Hohan Soken lineage) for about 10 years now and am looking forward to this series on White Crane Kung Fu.
It’s fascinating how, without saying a word, you are so impeccably polite and willing to learn From everyone you meet. Even without words they know you are grateful and willing and respectful and that is true power as a person. Your skill is second to none and they appreciate you and your wisdom and willingness unfathomably. This series is incredible. As are you.
Episode 1 Jesse: "Plus a weird style of kung fu called incense-shop boxing, but I didn't care about any of that." Episode 5 Jesse: "Little did he know..."
@@KARATEbyJesse So you'll produce more videos if I become a Hater? That's not a path that I wanted to take but if it motivates you... Just kidding, I enjoy your videos a lot!
8:33 Damn, Jesse came in with a perfectly smooth punch and that old man blocked it effortlessly. His technique was so smooth with a total casual competence. I actually watched him do it three times.

This was beyond amazing!! You discovered the real deal disciples from the old masters!! The fact that they considered you and your crew worthy of showing his house, that book, techniques and temple!! I'm speechless! Nothing but absolute humbleness! Please do continue and if you could go to the roots of kung-fu and Indian martial arts would be amazing!
Jesse is the MAN!He's the first to undertake such a great mission and the first to present his findings and discoveries to every Karate practitioner on the planet for free.That is called enthusiasm and true love for Karate
You’re right when you mentioned you felt like you had just scratched the surface. At the 17:26 mark, Sifu himself replied to the other guy that what you worked on was the basics. What an amazing experience that must’ve been for you. Great videos!
I learnt the Yong Chun White Crane and its sparring set decades ago. It was so practical and you can immediately use it. A lot of the TMC have lots in common and adds to what i practise everyday now. To this day, i really appreciate all forms of martial arts and so glad that you are promoting this. Keep up the amazing work Jesse.
I'm not really sure what to say.This is quite amazing. As a practioner of Goju Ryu, it's special to see the early techniques that grew into what we practice today. Xie Xie Ni.
Honestly when I first started watching these videos I was really skeptical of karate I've trained boxing my whole life and was a little jaded on karate mainly because the point style competitions but you've opened my eyes to how amazing karate can be thank you
I’m from China and also practice Karate. Thank you for combining two things that rooted deep in my heart so perfectly. And it’s so amazing to watch every single video that made by you always with such open mind and heart.
Wow if episode 1 was this great I feel I may binge the rest on this day off from work. One thing I have noticed when Enkamp Sensei was at the White Crane Temple was the breathing techniques being taught to him as well as the tightening of the core muscles, legs and arms I immediately saw the Goju Ryu Sanchin Kata 🤯. Thank you for all of your travels and time put in to making these videos.
La historia en movimiento. Es casi el trabajo de un arqueologo, un linguista, un traductor, un historiador, un sociologo y mucho mas. Impresionante... Se me pone la piel de gallina. Arigato gozaimashita!!!
This is always one of my favorite videos of yours. Your humility and willingness to empty your cup will surely keep leading you to success. Instead of trying to impress everyone with your own karate skills, you partnered up with other talented people and let them show you what they can do. Absolutely beautiful.
Iv started watching your videos a couple of days ago, and I'm really impressed. We can feel how passionate you are with Karate and martial arts, very good vibes coming out of your videos, very open-minded channel. Thx for the content, I'm learning a lot about the history and philosophy, I subscribe.
Why do i feel like they are communicating using martial art movements even though sensei jesse don't know how to speak Chinese i think they can understand each other. Its like the martial arts are there language 😲 it really amazes me how they communicate while practicing 👏👏👏 I miss this kind of videos 😭
He didn’t show off he just learned and watched, he did not come there to show off his skills. This is why your such a good person and deserve more credit because we need more people like you!
Master Yu (hope the spelling is right) seems so wonderful. He is in love with his craft and it shows. He's so eager and ready to swap knowledge with someone who doesn't even speak the same language. Because Martial Arts transcend those sorts of things.
Thank you Jesse as a Student of Karate for 30yrs and a big fan of the History of the art I salute you for all of your effort I share you videos with students!!
I've been waiting for this! As a chinese martial arts lover and practicioner, I can say... what a wonderful, deep and emotional content! Keep learning, enjoying and living this experience. Thanks for sharing with us! Cheers, Jesse! 🙏🏻
This series is beautiful. I devoured it as soon as it was available on Kickstarter. Keep up the good work Jesse, you enrich the Martial Arts world a more and more every single day.
I am so so happy with the episode. First I knew there is going to be food. Second, I hope there is going to be an explanation for the simplistic movement that we have in Karate by comparison to the origin.
This is going to be an incredible series! I love Karate, but mainly practice a hybrid system of American Kenpo and Shaolin Kempo-- the third most influential system incorporated into my training is White Crane (Ancestral and Feeding). I've been incredibly excited since the announcement of this series, this is going to be a fantastic ride.
I have to say,i feel immensely grateful for what u do Jesse.You are basically sharing knowledge by traveling to the root places of martial arts.We cant do this research,you are doing it for us.Thank you.
Regarding the last ‘White Crain’ technique, at the Temple, it reminded me of an Isshin Ryu Kata known as Sanchin. This was a required Kata for Shodan rank. Very taxing, when performed correctly. Great video, thank you.
I did the same... I study tang soo do Korean karate At 40 I started a month ago and love it so far and Jesse videos encouraged me to go for it. He's awesome
The best part is around the 15 minute mark where the master shows the student breathing. In Okinawan styles this is called sanchin breathing. Very powerful! It's the key to power in the martial arts. Excellent video!
They seem to have a great respect for you and really like you when you say you practice Karate! Really love this! Even if you don't speak his language, He seems very happy to teach you!
Truly movie quality production! I loved seeing the movements performed and realizing how similar they are to so many movements out of the Pinan and other katas.
Absolutely fabulous to see this. Thank you Jesse. Such a great accolade to viewing this in screen rather than reading. I look forward to then next in the series. Keep up your fabulous work. Hope to see you soon.
@Jesse Enkamp thank you for sharing this experience with us fellow karateka. You channel is the best karate channel in my opinion. Thank you for teaching us so much, and for helping me keep my Karate spirit alive! 🙏🏻🥋
Greetings from Mexico, I wanted to thank you for these videos in these difficult times 2020.I am not a karate practitioner I prefer kung fu and at this time covid I have not been able to train properly, but these videos give me passion and desire to practice at home a lot or little that can. Sorry my english
@@XianWangTheo Many simplifications in modern simplified Chinese are based on cursive forms or informal simplifications that have been in use for centuries. Since martial arts were considered 'low culture' in late imperial China, it makes sense that the authors of the wubeizhi used informal simplified characters.
Nice. Interesting factoid: Yong Chun is the Mandarin pronunciation of 詠春 (Wing Chun), which is also an art descended from a Crane style blended with a snake style. You can see the similarities in the Wing Chun movements and forms. (we also have a tale about our art being invented by a woman. Ng Mui, of the Southern Shaolin temple, who was rumored to have hid at a White Crane temple. Perhaps even the very one you visited.) Good luck with your exploration, and best wishes from the Gung Fu community! 新年快樂!
@@buyungadil1 I've heard it could mean "secret oral tradition" as well from a video years ago. But yes the standard translation is "eternal spring". I wouldn't know personally.
If I am not wrong, the crane style invented by madam Fang Qi Liang in Yong Chun, at a much earlier date than Ng Mui. Wing Chun on the other hand was invented by Ng Mui's lady disciple called Yen Wing Chun. Ng Mui was a nun with the Southern Shaolin temple. Both forms are related, indirectly but not directly. My two cents opinion. Cheers

Wow. This reminds me so much of when I was learning Tai Chi for self defence. I found the thought mentality behind Karate and Tai Chi to be almost polar opposites but weirdly similar. Plus my legs were killing me after each session with me thinking I hadn’t done enough to warrant then tiredness.
Você é um exemplo perfeito de artista marcial, é assim que todos os praticantes de artes marciais inclusive de karatê devem ser, respeitar a todos praticantes e sempre buscar aprender coisas novas
Thank you! I had no idea 19 minutes could pass so quickly. I was sitting in rapt attention the entire time and look forward to the videos to follow. The masters obviously recognise your knowledge, enthusiasm and desire to learn more from them and repay your respect by sharing their knowledge so freely. Wonderful video!
"White Crane combines soft circular movements with hard straight movements..." 8:46 sounds like what we know as Goju Ryu Karate to me.12:26 Kakie hands??? 15:50 Tensho???? You're on the right path...follow the Bubishi.
I know I'm late the party, but the joy and fun in the eyes of everyone as you were training made me cry. This is a beautiful series, I can already tell
Oh, man. You are really blessed and lucky to be there and learn... It's a virgin ground for Westerners. Ancient knowledge of oriental secrets...mmmm 🤩👊
Interesting thing is, I've seen a lot of these moves in traditional Karate kata, but, never met or even heard of any Karate teacher that knew what they were actually for. This is why I love this channel.
When every body debating about MMA Jesse learning history and going to roots of martial arts. respect to you Jesse the real martial artist
I now what type you are talking about .they all say things like .that would never work in mma while most do a martial art
Don't even do a martial art

@D R good tai chi instructor knows what does forms mean they are mostly grapling things you can find i tai chi you can also find in BJJ Judo Wrestelin
Never to late to learn ! Osu !
I think you should teach tai chi beacuse i wanns learn it alot

Super spry and snappy at that age
As a karate practitioner and of Chinese descent, this series makes me very happy. Thank you for sharing your journey !with everyone Sensei!
Years now Damm I thought China has kung fu
This should be on Nat Geo or the History Channel Jesse San!!!! Can't wait for ep. 2......
tyrns out the kungfu masters look like ordinary people in china. so anyone u meet there could actually be a concealed grandmaster.
agree ....

The masters obviously recognise your knowledge, enthusiasm and desire to learn more from them and repay your respect by sharing their knowledge so freely. Wonderful video!
Thanks for your kind words! 🙌
The old master looks in such a good shape that's great to see.
He is a character for sure, and in great shape.
And i bet his about 90!!
Jesse karate bro, the 1st episode of the documentary is AMAZING.
Thank you so much for the all the hard work you put to bring us this videos.
Glad to hear it was worth it! 💪
"White Crane combines soft circular movements with hard straight movements..." 8:46 sounds like what we know as Goju Ryu Karate to me.12:26 Kakie hands??? 15:50 Tensho???? You're on the right path...follow the Bubishi.
That exactly what I was thinking. A lot of the movements are similar to a lot of Goju Kata but so cool to see the difference
Shorin Ryu is the same, many of the same movements!!!
I know I'm late the party, but the joy and fun in the eyes of everyone as you were training made me cry. This is a beautiful series, I can already tell
Oh, man. You are really blessed and lucky to be there and learn... It's a virgin ground for Westerners. Ancient knowledge of oriental secrets...mmmm 🤩👊
Interesting thing is, I've seen a lot of these moves in traditional Karate kata, but, never met or even heard of any Karate teacher that knew what they were actually for. This is why I love this channel.
this is amazing
Jesse, thank you for sharing your karate learning journey with us! I can't wait for the second episode
Thanks! Stay tuned 😄
to have had such an experience on your first move.. is like catching the prize marlin. Papuren is the highest form of Chow Kar if I am not mistaken.

YES!
Karate is related to Kung Fu!

12:15
