Jesse Enkamp Hey man! I appreciate your videos! Can you please make one for people with throwers/grappling backgrounds to adapt to striking techniques? 🙏
Sen andYakul you’re not wrong though. When compared to Judo, I would not consider karate a grappling art. I would say that it is primarily a striking focused art that uses grappling to support strikes.
Traditional Karate is a complete effective art of combat and take down and throws are some of the important tecniques of Karate. Unfortunately most dojos outisde Okinawa only teaches punches and kicks. I appreciate the work you do and how you bring us back to the roots of Okinawan Karate. :D
I'm a Shotokan karateka myself and I've seen some of this throws in Master Funakoshi's Nine Forgotten Throws, I'm genuinely glad with the in-depth advice and analysis for weaker opponents.
Good technique! I love training ju jitsu and wrestling! These throws would definitely work on someone. You have good form while doing them. You are very tight on him. The last technique you show is very similar to judo throw. I also do muay thai and boxing. But I love watching good karate practitioners
All of the 6 different korean Kwan (Schools) Masters before the unification through Gen. Choi Hong Hi (I leave out all the politics behind this) did Karate (Chung San-Sup also knew some Judo). 2 of them even learned direktly under the great Funakoshi (Shoto-kan Founder) and 1 under Toyama (Shudo-Kan Founder). There was not much else they could teach, but Karate. I'd say a straight Shotokan descendant or a modern form of a wider Shorin-Ryu way of Karate if you will. Before the name Taekwondo was eventually chosen (for its superficial likenes to korean Tekkyon dance and notably sounding similar), the name Tangsudo was the one widely used, meaning "way of the empty hand". That rings a bell, doesnt it? The only reason Taekwondo has a different name is politics, Koreas hard feelings against japanese after WWII and a quest for some national identity (all human and relateable). As for the differences - well there are many different Karate styles, emphasizing different aspekts of it. I'd say Master Otsukas Wado-Ryu might be more different from Miyagis Goju-Ryu Karate, than Taekwondo differs from Shotokan. Make Karate (in whatever form you choose), not war! Keep doing what you're doing Jesse! Cheers and Osu!
Great video, most of these throws are probably (like you said) are used against experienced fighters because most people in a street fight are not going to throw jab or a kick, most people are just going to be throwing haymakers, however you did say that you would use these against somebody who is a better striker. Great video!
Well for a haymaker you don't even need any setup to throw them, the first martial arts move I ever learned was a hip throw which is so simple that I just did it as a 5 YO on reflex when a friend scared me, it's super easy to also apply to haymaker type punches without any set up and I kinda feel like most people can do it on instinct if they just go for it so you don't even need to train it much before you can use it in a fight, well I didn't need to anyway maybe I'm just weird
Excellent video Jesse and Oliver🥋 Very effective throws technics. Very simply put and explained in very didactic way. I'm gonna revisit this video more than once. Greetings from Argentina👍✌
I really like your videos. As a lifelong(almost) martial artist who started as a striker and became primarily a grappler, but continued to train in striking, I like your well rounded attitude. The 1st throw you show, I learned in Aikido. I was told it originated as a sword attack. The 2nd I was taught in Judo, but learned a modified version that may help the weaker or those with back trouble, where your lead foot goes slightly deeper and behind their heel. You can do it with much less lifting. The third was also in Judo, and as you show, a kick defense. I was taught to move in and spin with it to cut short the impact of the strike. It was later I learned to reap the supporting leg, and that really increases the effectiveness. Also, if you keep turning as you throw, the power is almost doubled. Thank you for your educational channel!
I love the way you explain each technique thoroughly and then also demonstrate and I also really enjoy your history lessons I love learning where my karate comes from
A kungfu nerd knows these concepts are common in "spring legs" kungfu. Thank you for all the cross pollination you do. You have been my kungfu teach consistently for a while now...
The first on at about 1:42 is utilizing a horse stance which shows that the moves within Kata WILL work in a real self defense situation. I know because I have used this technique being a part time bouncer/door man Great instructional vid!! Much Respect!!!
The throws that you demonstrated seem perfect for defense witch is the core of karate. I like that it's one of the reasons I love karate. I've always been a defensive guy and counter puncher
On the last throw a smashing knife hand to the 🥜 makes a lovely parting gift. Just keeping in mind groin shot can cause shock and people can die from shock alone. I have done it with a hard slap! It stopped my attacker from kicking and breathing for a little while. I love this channel and it’s nice to see Oliver jump in and help! 🙂
My karate teacher was a specialist at performing the first throw, it looked so easy from outside, it was almost a fingerprint for his school. Very effective in tournaments if you attached to the rules.
I have ever studied Taekwondo and Judo. I think the main factors is you need to be stronger and faster than your opponents then you can do everything :)). Thanks for your video. I would love to see more from you.
Beautiful and useful video! In HEMA we have something almost identical to the first one you shown and it's really interesting to watch you put out this technique! As HEMA still rely a lot on interpretation of anchent medieval/renaissance fighting manuals, sometimes it's useful to learn from other arts, like Karate for example! Thank you very much for sharing. Cheers!
Very good, that you also show throws in a dominate striking and kicking style......shows that you are open minded , not these type of masters who think the only style is their style......
Max Sette Well, Karate is mostly Punchs, Kicks, and blocks, but Karate does have throws (or projections) so he is not really outside of the Karate zone. Karate is very diverse.
@@estebandsandovall I know, in my experience it depends also on the teacher. Not every master is familiar with throws....but i know also in Karate are these kind of techniques....also Judo in the beginning has strikes. Today Judo is more for competition and Jiu Jitsu is more like the old form of Judo, but depends on the style....
I don't know if it's a coincidence but I learnt these techniques among a few other today in my class... BTW I'm from India so my class was in the morning and this video came out in the evening so I was very amazed with the fact of the crazy coincidence
Every time I see techniques that you use in Karate that we also use in Kung Fu, I remember the time you talked about different styles. Different names, different ideas and approach but one similar essence. Btw, those throws are really effective for Sanda too! Great video, Ossu, Sensei! 🙏🏻
Found your channel today. I'm a Judoka and an amateur wrestler trying to add solid standup to my fight game. I spar a lot and I'm also flexible but not satisfactory-level good at standup fighting. I often get hit a lot during spar sessions, so switching to my grappling has become a necessary but quite demoralizing habit. I tried your first technique in standup sparring today and was able to drop 3 different (skilled) opponents by simply closing distance. Please make more videos based on techniques and tactic breakdowns
With the leg trap, I would usually use an inside sweep. That way my opponent is down and away from me. Plus, it opens up a wide variety of finishing blows. I am gonna have to study the first two and get a better read on the movements. Good video. And remember, never turn your back on little brother !
I am primarily a mix of boxing/wing chun/jkd, but I've been recently been looking to mix in some non-striking that I can use as I'm at close range. I started off with all the jiu jitsu chokes I could find that have a standing version. Now, I find myself looking a lot at Jesse's bunkai videos to add from karate's close grapples and sweeps. Thanks for the insight.
On the 3rd throw I prefer to take the brunt of the force on the lead arm, if you time it with a bit of a spin you can dissipate the force of the kick and avoid shin to elbow traumatic moment, great video those are useful and effective, thank you
That third technique, catching kicks safely for a throw, I didn't learn until I picked up Tai Chi (in 1997 I think?). It suited me so well that it is now one of my absolute favorite techniques, and I have studied variations on execution so that I feel like I'm "always in position" to catch a kick that comes up high enough to catch. When you drop your center of mass and rotate your torso to assist your block, look at how high your elbow is. Any kick that isn't FULLY ABOVE that point requires an alternate technique to catch cleanly -- otherwise what happens is you end up hooking the leg with your hand instead of your opposite arm's elbow, and the opponent will drop weight onto their leg to force you to bend forward (making it easy for them to hit you in the face) or let go. Sometimes even if you can get hold of the leg with your hand, you are still out of position to move your feet and throw them down. Basically you have no leverage if you catch a kick that was aimed at your stomach or hip instead of your ribs. You can, if you have very good legs, drop your weight more to get your elbow lower and catch a slightly lower kick. It's dangerous if you misread the kick and it comes at your head, so be sure the kick is low AND that the kick isn't a feint when doing this. Low kicks to the thigh or groin are easy to feint. ------ You can reverse the arm scissor that catches the kick. Instead of dropping the opposite hand, drop the near hand and bring your opposite forearm across to block. This is easier to do against a right kick as it requires less torso rotation from you. Step in and hook the leg with your near arm at the knee. Rise and move forward or spin them to hurl them down; whatever feels easiest to do. You'll know once you have hold of the leg. It just takes a bit of practice; feeling what will work best becomes easy. ------ With all variations of this technique, mentally guard your eyes. You will often take an awkward punch to the head as the attacker tries to get you off of their leg. Just tilting your head to make it strike your skull (or miss you) is enough of a defense, since the punch will be thrown from the shoulder and is basically just a weak jab. Don't get caught unaware squarely in the face and you'll be fine... usually it barely stings and hits so softly it leaves no mark. The one real danger is that the attacker will instead poke at your eyes. Be ready to turn your head and close your eyes if you see the open hand coming; you have hold of your attacker and don't need to see them in that moment to know exactly where they are. ------ You can use a variation on this technique (scissor arm and reverse scissor arm) to step into any whirling kick, even kicks to the head, and just toss the attacker on their butt. It's actually really easy to do once you get used to it. There's a sweet spot with kicks; the foot. If they are too far from you, you can just take a small step back and watch them waste energy. If they aren't, a step forward ensures that even if you mess up, you'll be hit on the arm by their calf and not in the face by their foot. You can lose your fear of kicks once you learn this throw; just don't lose your respect, because a kick that you don't see coming will knock you out or at least severely injure you. ------ I like the first technique as well; I also learned that one from Tai Chi, and then later again from Aikido. It's a fantastic move. You have tons of options. You can knee the back of your attacker's leg once you step in, and sometimes drive their knee violently into the ground (preferably concrete) with your own knee (technically your shin just below your knee) if they try to lean forward to avoid being spun down to the ground. You can elbow upward violently to strike under the chin (or into the teeth/nose if they tuck their chin) between their guard. If fighting for your life, after the step-in your attacker is out of position to defend their groin in any way; grab and wrench, or just strike once to distract them from the throw or whatever you plan to do next. ------ The second technique... is not good to do, at least not against everyone. These days, almost everyone who knows how to fight at all knows boxing. Anyone trained to box, the moment you drop your hands to shoot under the jab, will right hook you in the jaw and knock you out cold. They also might drop their own center mass and uppercut you square in the face. A better timing for this move is not against the jab. After your attacker throws anything hard from their right side, a kick or a hooking punch with power behind it, they are for a moment not torqued to throw a right hook or right uppercut. They also can't throw a right knee and catch you in the head. Shoot in, tucking your chin so that a jab will strike your skull instead of your face. The rest of the move is the same; you are just initiating the attacker's jab by shooting in at the right timing instead of trying to read the jab coming. Be mindful that you have a SPLIT SECOND to execute this technique. You should be following their right kick/punch in as it retracts, trying to make contact before they can fully reset their stance to a neutral position. if you miss the window, don't try. ------ Always remember to learn how to throw someone down. Learn how to keep them safe in practice. Then in a real fight... do the opposite. Make sure they DON'T land well. Your attack is meant to end the fight.
First one Tani Otoshi Second One Morote Gari Last one is an O uchi Gari in Judo. Pretty cool how all styles have variants of the same throwing concept.
Great demonstration. I'm a student of long fist and hung gar styles of Kung Fu. I've field tested all three and it's a great rush to land them during sanda sparring.
The first one throw works like a charm in a free fight as well as in self-defense, I used to use it a couple of times, especially against boxers who slip your right hand )
The last could be considered an o uchi gari with leg grip, or maybe even raise your leg higher like an uchimata, but I like the way you turn and sweep backwards which eliminates the need for you to make the effort to advance to get behind his leg
Nice tutorial Jesse Sensei! The first throw is very similar to the "Kao" technique in Baji/Pigua, once again we can see the connection between Chinese martial art and Karate.
Week 75 of flattening the curve for two weeks... When this came out I thought maybe I'd get to try this out. Our club is rather set in it's ways, let's see if I find others willing to experiment. Or I'll have to wait until things normalize and maybe go get me one of those fancy pink belts.
Great video! Sensei Jesse please make a video of how to do ashi barai in Kumite, by sweeping both from the outside and from the inside. I find it very difficult to time the bouncing movement of my opponent and sweep his foot off, or sometime when I could get him but I find it hard to apply the "pulling" force to destroy his balance. Gogita Arkania is a master of this and his takedowns are very interesting to watch, but these techniques are also very difficult to learn. Thank you! Oss!
We do variations of this first throw in our school it is definitely legit. The only thing we don't do is try to lift the leg because if someone has a tree trunk leg you aren't lifting it. We variate by simply touching the leg like a quick unstabilizing movement and then we hip pivot and turn the behind foot slightly to create torque to do the throw. Good stuff.

The difference is that karatekas try to stay on their feet
"You don't have to lift and throw them in the air, but that looks cooler"
Okay, I'm convinced.

I’m a student of taekwondo but I always enjoy your incredibly helpful videos. Thank you
Taekwondo is an extension of Karate 😄👍
Dean Sheppard ...dont you mean (take my dough)!...its all it was to me.
Taekwondo was developed from Shotokan Karate by a Shotokan Grandmaster General Choi Khong Khe )
All of the 6 different korean Kwan (Schools) Masters before the unification through Gen. Choi Hong Hi (I leave out all the politics behind this) did Karate (Chung San-Sup also knew some Judo). 2 of them even learned direktly under the great Funakoshi (Shoto-kan Founder) and 1 under Toyama (Shudo-Kan Founder). There was not much else they could teach, but Karate. I'd say a straight Shotokan descendant or a modern form of a wider Shorin-Ryu way of Karate if you will. Before the name Taekwondo was eventually chosen (for its superficial likenes to korean Tekkyon dance and notably sounding similar), the name Tangsudo was the one widely used, meaning "way of the empty hand". That rings a bell, doesnt it?
The only reason Taekwondo has a different name is politics, Koreas hard feelings against japanese after WWII and a quest for some national identity (all human and relateable). As for the differences - well there are many different Karate styles, emphasizing different aspekts of it. I'd say Master Otsukas Wado-Ryu might be more different from Miyagis Goju-Ryu Karate, than Taekwondo differs from Shotokan.
Make Karate (in whatever form you choose), not war!
Keep doing what you're doing Jesse!
Cheers and Osu!
First throw is used by Lyoto Machida. Oss!
Sean Lars yes! There’s a great gif of it

First throw is beautiful man can’t wait to try this in the dojo lol
Excellent tutorial and I'm from a kung fu background. We all have something to offer regardless of style/art.
Same core throws as San Shou that are present in Tai Chi and BaJi forms.

You can lose your fear of kicks once you learn this throw; just don't lose your respect, because a kick that you don't see coming will knock you out or at least severely injure you.
------
I like the first technique as well; I also learned that one from Tai Chi, and then later again from Aikido. It's a fantastic move. You have tons of options. You can knee the back of your attacker's leg once you step in, and sometimes drive their knee violently into the ground (preferably concrete) with your own knee (technically your shin just below your knee) if they try to lean forward to avoid being spun down to the ground. You can elbow upward violently to strike under the chin (or into the teeth/nose if they tuck their chin) between their guard. If fighting for your life, after the step-in your attacker is out of position to defend their groin in any way; grab and wrench, or just strike once to distract them from the throw or whatever you plan to do next.
------
The second technique... is not good to do, at least not against everyone. These days, almost everyone who knows how to fight at all knows boxing. Anyone trained to box, the moment you drop your hands to shoot under the jab, will right hook you in the jaw and knock you out cold. They also might drop their own center mass and uppercut you square in the face. A better timing for this move is not against the jab. After your attacker throws anything hard from their right side, a kick or a hooking punch with power behind it, they are for a moment not torqued to throw a right hook or right uppercut. They also can't throw a right knee and catch you in the head. Shoot in, tucking your chin so that a jab will strike your skull instead of your face. The rest of the move is the same; you are just initiating the attacker's jab by shooting in at the right timing instead of trying to read the jab coming. Be mindful that you have a SPLIT SECOND to execute this technique. You should be following their right kick/punch in as it retracts, trying to make contact before they can fully reset their stance to a neutral position. if you miss the window, don't try.
------
Always remember to learn how to throw someone down. Learn how to keep them safe in practice. Then in a real fight... do the opposite. Make sure they DON'T land well. Your attack is meant to end the fight.

First one Tani Otoshi Second One Morote Gari Last one is an O uchi Gari in Judo. Pretty cool how all styles have variants of the same throwing concept.
Gravity is gravity! 😄👍
Actually the first one is sukui nage, and the third I'd clasiffy as more of an uchi mata since he falls forwards and not backwards.
@@AljosaPLampe you judokas !😑

Unless you are talking : combat Judo, the entry is not the same . . .
Am all the way from kenya but i love watching ur videos
Great demonstration. I'm a student of long fist and hung gar styles of Kung Fu. I've field tested all three and it's a great rush to land them during sanda sparring.
This is one of your best videos bro
Jesse you r amazing.. Your videos help me a lot to learn.. Keep uploading videos like this.. Oss
You and your brother really seem to have fun together :) thanks for the video!
Thanks for Sharing, very Bunkai friendly application for Seiyuchin and Shisochin.
The first one throw works like a charm in a free fight as well as in self-defense, I used to use it a couple of times, especially against boxers who slip your right hand )
Im going out riggt now an get my boy to do these to me on the beach. Thanks man...man nerd lol or karate nerd...you da man
I train in JKD, but I really liked those tips. You explained them well and I am going to incorporate them into my training. Thanks 👍😎👍
The last could be considered an o uchi gari with leg grip, or maybe even raise your leg higher like an uchimata, but I like the way you turn and sweep backwards which eliminates the need for you to make the effort to advance to get behind his leg
Nice tutorial Jesse Sensei! The first throw is very similar to the "Kao" technique in Baji/Pigua,
once again we can see the connection between Chinese martial art and Karate.
Thanks Sensei Jesse for sharing these techniques. :D
Great tips Jesse we're learning all the time thank you
Nice throws. I think #3 is the safest for a striker, but they're all applicable.
Oss sensei. I love throwing and grappling. Loved this video sensei. Really awesome video. Oss sensei
Love the Bunkai on the last throw
Awesome setups for takedown and 100% karateish.
Nice I love it I have almost got my black belt myself ( Greeting from Abu Dhabi(U.A.E.))
That's was realy helpful❤ thank you so much sensie Jesse for this video 📸💐
Week 75 of flattening the curve for two weeks... When this came out I thought maybe I'd get to try this out. Our club is rather set in it's ways, let's see if I find others willing to experiment. Or I'll have to wait until things normalize and maybe go get me one of those fancy pink belts.
As a judoka this is very useful,thanks
More of these would be awesome, great video!
Fantastic video Jesse, definitely food for thought
I love the last one.
Thanks, that first one is simple to remember
It's practical. Good stuff.
Nice technique, thanks for sharing
The first can be done like naihanchi shodan. You can grab left arm and just do the other part of the motion as it goes.
This was always one of my favourite Bunkai movements for Pinian Shodan
Need more fighting techniques, sensei jessi!
Jesse Sensei, awesome video again! thank you!
Great video! Sensei Jesse please make a video of how to do ashi barai in Kumite, by sweeping both from the outside and from the inside. I find it very difficult to time the bouncing movement of my opponent and sweep his foot off, or sometime when I could get him but I find it hard to apply the "pulling" force to destroy his balance. Gogita Arkania is a master of this and his takedowns are very interesting to watch, but these techniques are also very difficult to learn. Thank you! Oss!
We do variations of this first throw in our school it is definitely legit. The only thing we don't do is try to lift the leg because if someone has a tree trunk leg you aren't lifting it. We variate by simply touching the leg like a quick unstabilizing movement and then we hip pivot and turn the behind foot slightly to create torque to do the throw. Good stuff.
Very practical application. Thanks for sharing!
Great demonstration vid!
Thanks for teaching me these throwing techniques. Now I can use these in my ippons
Thank you Sensei! Can’t wait to teach this to my students! 🥋
thanks for the refresher forgot a lot of this stuff < 3
