- In this interview André Bertel explains the key points of his seminar in Ahrensburg/Germany 2016 (July 23/24).
Sensei stresses the importance of budo principles in Karate and being able to use all techniques and movements against a non-compliant opponent in free fight and self-defense.
Downing an opponent with a single blow, explosiveness and complete stillness, perfect timing of hand and feet, awareness and knowing how to use the body in an optimal way are further aspects explained in this video. Furthermore, André shares his view on political correctness in today's Karate world.

Really like this guy. Great philosophy, great technique!
Yes and a great sensai
Very reminiscent of my Shotokan Sensei many years ago, despite their physical differences. Trained out of a church hall and had very few students simply because he pushed everyone to their limits, but it was clear that Karate was his life. I found it hard enough to keep up when I worked days but when I moved to shift work it was impossible - such is life.
Thank you for lighting the way from all the bridges you've burnt. Your honesty of your views is spot on and the true Karate way. Ous.
This guy is the real-deal.
YES INDEED. He gives short dudes like myself hope. LOL.
his methods remind me of my teachers
I so enjoy watching this man do techniques. I need to go practice.
Learning is a continuous process and we thank God for having you in our mist. Mr Andrew bless you,ous.
he is absolutely correct about that political correctness. Nowadays, people just say, "Let's keep an open mind and learn from other style of karate, or even other martial arts", or if I say that punching without hikite in training is wrong, people will say, "Oh, the Goju Ryu does it without hikite in their kata". That's is not being open minded, but that is being "not focused". So you are not fully Shotokan, Goju, or Shito, what are you? what are your principles? The styles had to sacrifice things based on the choices that the founders made, and you cannot just mix them all. If you are Shotokan, dig more from the correct Shotokan, not from other styles, the same goes for other styles. There may be one or two similar things, but when learning under Shotokan and you do a mistake based on Shotokan principle, you must accept being told that you are wrong. I can't believe when I heard some Shotokan dojos here teach katas from other styles just because those katas are more popular in competition smh
What an incredible and in depth Sensei you are Your seniors more specifically your instructor is very proud of you I can tell your students admire you greatly Incredible human being mind body and spirit
Sensei Bertel,you are my favourite SENSEI.You are my inspiration and i like all your movement.Good luck and all the best.
Thank you very much for sharing this interview, Mr. Schoemburg. I greatly appreciate all of your hard work! And, of course, deepest appreciation to Bertel Sensei!
Rất thực tế
The best Shotokan I've seen so far, an inspiration!
I was stuck with MORIO HIGAONNA sensei and Okinawa styles.
But monsieur BERTEL is very good !!!!
Sensei Bertel,
I just wanted to say I respect you immensely and your attitude towards karate as budo.
If you think you are good. Think again after you see Andre Bertel. He is extraordinary.
I initially thought Andre was South African but it turns out he's from Ch Ch NZ ,what a brilliant instructor and Martial Artist his commitment to his chosen Art is incredible well done you are an absolute credit to your parents :)
harmonious technique feels like when striking the energy flows from the heel to the fist
Excellent captain very nice view I follow you carefully I am Abbas from Syria and a former karate player I have beautifully admired
This is a real man. Speed, strength, agility, and endurance...this guy can destroy huge men in seconds.
may be yes, may be not
@@seksam More yes than no
Hi Mr. Andre I like your style very fast punch
Sensei I have the utmost respect for you and indeed the world we live in now days is indeed one without opinion and because of this we do have pollution amongst senseis and students, only indeed a few.
He is truly amazing!
12:42 This. So many instructors ignore the locks and holds of kata and teach some prearranged choreography when it comes to bunkai. I get so fed up when it comes to the latter as its such a waste of time. Great vid.
A True breath of fresh air.
great seminar, thank´s for Budo Karate. Oss!
This is amazing. There is one sensei like this in Slovenia. His name is Seiko Kostič! Really good!
Andre Bertel I am glad to be on the same team as a true martial art.
Es impresionante el control, equilibrio, balance, fuerza y velocidad lo que en conjunto hacen una excelente técnica.
Berreo inspira y motiva para seguir a mis 60 años practicando Karate!
I like his approach and thinking of Karate-do. If he had a dojo in London or if there is a like minded sensei around here I would definitely like to join that dojo.
Um forte abraço sensei André e à todos os amigos do karatê 👍👍oss!!!
Thanks for the sharing, is great man
This guy is the real deal, very snappy as it should be. I’m 4th dan wado ryu.
It was a great seminar :)
I have utmost respect for Andre as a martial artist but have some issues with the philosophy. Gichin Funokoshi assembled Shotokan out of parts and borrowed elements from several styles... he did not follow one way... then his son completely changed the style to create a new orthodoxy with greater contrary motion from the hips and deeper stances. Most of this was never road tested in full-contact but made a kind of sense if taken as a gestalt. It doesn't follow that there is a right way suitable for all body types etc.... merely that this approach needs to be absorbed as a whole from the basics up if one wants to get to the core of Shotokan, But there is a world of movement outside of Shotokan...outside of all styles in fact. Still I love that there are those who continually delve into and renew the essence of a given style.
Sensei André bertel um mestre excelente é notório suas abilidades
Excellent ! Exquisite and powerful techniques with impeccable control ! ( Brings back memories of when I used to train back in the 70s putting thousands of hours of practice for 50 years.) I’m in tennis now. I put the same dedication, time and effort in my tennis as I used to do as a Martial Artist.
So if someone tries to get rough with you the option to kick them or just hit them with a racket is available.
Those Williams ̶s̶i̶s̶t̶e̶r̶s̶ brothers look like they might be able to mess you up!
@@dududu5189 Considering I’m almost 66 , only 5’6”, and frail ,, they can ! Especially Serena! She’s 5’11” and built like a linebacker ! 😂😂🤣
Oss sensai all the best karaté can be achieved with gratitude Thank you sensai
Hands down best sensei outside of Japan.
Sensei Bertel is a true Karateka and an inspiration
Ossu
Very good karate would love to learn from you in time
Very good thank you!!
I love the way he says the seminar is for the student not the instructors look at me show
I wonder about the kicking from the seated position. Some say you shouldn't bend the knee past 90 degrees as they are not intended to work as bellows. Perhaps for the younger and lighter students it may be ok but for the older and heavier weighted... is there a chance of damaging the meniscus and knee ligaments in this type of exercise? That caused long term damage to my knees. Any advice?
This guy so goooooood.... number one master
Thank you sensei👍
I love this guy. He’s not politically correct. A man with common sense who believes in objective truth. Rock on!
Thank you!! Oss
He is a good instructor oss sensei
rly awesome... got to go the dojo (well in my case the dojang)
Well done Andre'. We might even have to change the name or break away from the "sport " karate environment as the excuses of "not suitable for children' or competition is badly diluting the true essence of karate - as a fighting art..
totaly agree what you say in your interview.A lot of karate clubs these days,Do not train there students to a high enough standard.Not much contact is allowed,This in my opinion is necessary to prepare you for if you do get attacked so you do not go into shock when hit.Plus it helps to condition the body.Sadly most club members these days could not stamp on a paper bag.Perhaps they could take a lesson from you,Or the Kyokushin boys.
I go to your seminar to get your autograph sir.
André Bertel un authentique karateka !
Andre totally absorb the form of Master Asai Tetsuhiko
Excellent
He is true deal in karate. What he said is true. If you do not know to apply kata in real life. It’s just dance.
Yoooo my dudes head smacked that ground.
Very nice sensei
El entrenamiento del Shotokan, debe expresar FUERZA, COORDINACIÓN Y RAPIDEZ
Nice honest opinion .
Thanks
Very good thanks ❤️🙏❤️. Kyokushin OSU 👍👍👍
This guy is awesome.
Muito legal.
I love martial arts and been with Oyama for fifty yrs. Well he died in 94. Trained with Howard Collins, Brian Fitkin, Steve Arneil, other imported experts as well and my life long friend SHIAN Kåre Haugland to his two Sensei 3-4 for Oyama and as I remember the only one in Norway. The philosophy, behavior is much more important to me. Also kempo, tai boksing, boxing. Alongside Yoga. Since 77.
I was on my way to the Himalayas now, ten yrs ago... After a course in hot yoga in Phuket. Well I am still in Thailand 🙏 I study martial arts, yoga, nunchacu, tonfa, throwing knife, etc. Not as much but some everyday. I am alone and do my things in solitude. Would like to find a person with same mind set. 100reds hrs meditasjon with the monks. No fighting monks here that I know.
One thing I have always been wondering about. In a kumite,,, where do you focus or rest your eyes.
I learn in boxing the eyes.
But then it's hard to see the feet. I used to could tolerant hard kicks, punch. Due to I didn't see. Ok. Low kick and infight is my best. But can you or anyone tell where to look. Down smack in the face, look face, eyes kick in chest. Broken ribs alot. Ok 😊. You are very good Andre.
Shotokan was Oyama first. 4dan. W. Funakosi.
Oyama is his Japanese name I was adopted. He is from Korea there he had degree high in some Art. Don't remember. His whole family was. Mas weight was about 80kg, 170lbs. He fought 🐂 I remember 14. Hurt in Mexico. Ok 🙏ok. Bruce Lee 57 kg.??? If I remember correctly. Mas never lost a fight. But before meeting in USA proff Boxer. The day before he was scared. His own words. OSU Andre and thank you for your time and videos 🙏🙏🙏
Very true Sensei oss
Hello Sensei Bertel,
Do you plan on holding any seminars here in the United States in the near future?
Uzz sensei great seminar
Is it Samsung Representative in Japan, always into turning off the audio sound of American program of all karate videos.
Very energetic move...nice move sir
Oss. Sensei, do you have any plans of conducting seminar in India?
I am a ttae Kwon do master . Not too many llike us Andre. We are real hardcore.
He is speaking the truth!
Hola shijan bertel tu karate es shotokan o cual es tu estilo de karate. Me gusta mucho tus clases
Dear Andre Sensei. It seems to me, you are teaching often in germany. I for myself are trained in Kyokushinkarate since 1997, in seibukan shorin ryu since two years (wearing a white belt again makes me free to leran new stuff ;) ). Question: Do you think, it is allowed for me to participate next time you are teaching in germany? An if so, maybe i can find a newsletter or something like this for keep an eye on my sheduling, if you visit here again?
I respect all styles of Karate-Do, so you are very welcome. I have many friends in Kyokushin and Seido. The resident Karate Master in my hometown Christchurch -- Hanshi Renzie Hanham -- is a senior 8th Dan student of Nakamura Tadashi Kaicho (Seido Juku), and also trained directly under Oyama Masutatsu Sosai.
Actually, I love the variation of karate styles, which I think we should embrace and learn from each other.
Kindest regards from Japan.
Sensei Bertel refers to three core principles: Tai no shinshoku, contraction and expansion, and Koshino kaiten, rotation, but what's the third? Sounds like jyu no sei, but I don't speak Japanese and a search reveals nothing. Anyone know?
Junansei is 'softness'/flexibility. All the best from Oita, Japan.
Very interesting video and I have one question. Supposed an older student at age 58 such as myself wanted to return to Karate after 30 year break would it be possible to learn one on one with instructor in a private setting or is it necessary to be part of a classroom full of students?
I would suggest training in a club is more beneficial personal training in principle can be good but far more energy and natural drive to improve against the people you train with. P,us private classes are very expensive
❤
"Burning bridges gonna light my way to the future" ... wow, a Karate teacher not falling victim for men-hating feminism and PC culture! that is real Ki ! 🔥🙏🏻
Big respect from here. True and wise words.
Ossss Sensei
Hello Shihan. What is the kata for stiff shoulders?
At 15:56, what kind of kick is it?please I really want to know. I've been searching it in google but I didn't find it. I'm a karateka too.

Master kali2 diadu dengan aliran beladiri lain dong....
Hi Marster you bravos &strong
It's real master!
Do you think all of what you talk about is applicable to all type of karate? Cause I practice kyokushin and it is Very different from shotokan!
Karate, when it is trained as budo, regardless of style is the same. I do Shotokan; however, I don't see it as being much different to other ryuha/kaiha. I also believe that the same principles apply to all forms of budo karate. I have friends in all the major styles here in Japan and the respect is mutual and, accordingly, we learn from each other. Kindest regards and best wishes from Oita city, - André Bertel
Osu! Thx! :)
Kyokushin isnt much different from shotokan. Along with goju ryu kyokushin came from shotokan many of the katas came from shotokan. an example is the pinan and tekki katas and the goju ryu part speaks for itself , tensho sepai. movement can be traced back to another style at one point and time we just to observe closely enough!!
That's honesty
If more people trained well Peace would break out🙏
Eu gosto de mais em dessis estilus
INSPIRING!
I hold my doubts, has Motobu Choki famously said: ''you can't know the truth, untill you fight."
See you in Kudo competition, you can do all that with almost no restrictions, if the guy is bigger than you can eaven kick him in the groin.
Osh... Indonesia KARATE
Oss!
Like very well
The only two person that inspires me are Bruce Lee and Andre Bertel.
Everything must be just right to be able to defend yourself. Your opponents must hit you the way you want to be hit, otherwise it won't work.
Ben si c'est pour faire quelque chose d'autre sera une réponse avec une autre technique.
De toute façon il y a un degré d'incertitude qui n'est pas énorme soit il tape avec le point gauche soit il tape avec le point droit soit il tape avec la jambe gauche soit il tape avec la jambe droite.
Ça s'appelle le degré d'incertitude.
Il y a un degré d'incertitude de 4 faces un bon élément et face à un débutant généralement c'est le point droit qui arrive.
Mais cela s'apprend avec la pratique on arrive à lire les mouvements avant même qu'il soit lancé.
Plus le pratiquant est bon moi il fait d'appel et plus il est difficile de voir sa technique.
On peut même feinter attaque avec l'esprit.
