Jesse Enkamp This is the best video I've watched in your channel... it remembers me what the UFC trainer told you. This is one of the ways I am perfecting my Karate... using the close quarter distance, I am mixing Karate and Wing Chun, and other martial arts, but primaly, for self defense purposes, and after that, sport purposes. I think that what don't work is not the "technique" (movement or stance), is the "application", and the moment. I am using even tai chi principles, using Bruce Lee's mindset. For example, this leverage is used in Wing Chun: 2:39; this hit and this trap are Wing Chun techniques: 2:09. The "sumo" posture is what I use in close quarter distance, this is very similar to low stances in tai chi, that supossedly don't work. I search the Wing Chun trapping range in all my kumites, and works, my opponents don't understand what is happening. The 4:24 technique is similar respect Judo. At the end, there is a middle point where all martial arts converge. I am trying to create a new combat system, and this video is amazingly near of what I have working during years.
Jesse Enkamp great video Jesse👍🏼💪🏼💪🏼thanks for your nice content🙇♂️
Greetings from Germany✌🏼
Great video
Try adding a mawashi uke before applying the exact techniques you explained and they become very easy to use and are extremely effective.
Love your work
Jesse Enkamp
I wish most karate instructors thought this way. I really believe this is the way karate is supposed to be. There is nothing about karate that doesn't work. Every bit of it works. Just interpreted wrong.
find instruction in okinawan karate. you will see more of this type of thinking
So difficult to find though. Part of why karate is so misunderstood. Okinawan karate is the art in its purest form.
It doesn’t have to be Okinawan. I teach Tang Soo Do and have been teaching this for years. There’s just an unfortunate number of bad instructors out there.
bill krips I agree. I think most instructors mean well but there is too much sport in karate. I like studying tuite and chin-na. Close range defense.
Nathan w your words were well said. Yes karate works 😁
This is without a doubt the best karate tip that has ever opened my mind in so many years. It feels like an awakening to a new reality. Kata would never be the same for me again. Thank you Jesse.
I recently said this same thing to a well known sensei in my area and he looked at me like i had 7 heads lol
As someone who has never been fond of Katas, you sure make a case to continue to study these applications. Thank you for opening my eyes and helping me further my education.
Too bad nobody explained these things to me 35 years ago. Then the kata seemed boring and lacking in realism, I only practiced it because they asked me to move from one dan to another. Thanks for it!.
Besides karate, I also study/train wing Chun. Simultaneity in attack and defense is there all the time. Seeing this concept being worked on karate makes me think about the origin of this martial art and how it was influenced by Chinese martial Artists of Fujian province, which happens to be where wing Chun had flourished. Great explanation!!
When a fist returns to chamber, it contains something.
This is an old principle in karate that has been lost or overlooked.
I opened my eyes on that forgotten principle when I discovered the translation of hikite is puller.

@@lalchungnungaralte9104 exactly. Pulling something anyway.
@@maxventura7015 I know was just correcting the translation and its good to know there are people with the same fondness of karate as me
@@lalchungnungaralte9104 nice to meet you, Senpai!
Oh my god, now i remember my first lesson in Karate, my teacher said every block can be used as a strike. Thank you for bringing back the memories :D
Range dictates everything. Great post Jesse. We have to practice and adapt our kata to the ranges. OSU!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. FINALLY SOME REAL INSIGHT INTO KARATE TO HELP THE GENERAL PUBLIC OPINION ON TRADITIONAL KATA AND THE DEEP AND CONCRETE PHILOSOPHY OF WHY AND HOW
AWESOME VID!! 💛
These never were "blocks", but forearm slams. The techniques are either from Lung Ying or 5 Ancestors, from which it is believed Miyagi drew a lot of his Goju Ryu from. That first move you show after moving in closer is the actual original application.
That’s exactly what my sensi said using the various blocks as different attacks since Karate was originally developed for that purpose in its pure raw form
Oliver rules!!!! I really like karate and mma working together!!!👍
Look for Sensei Antony Vinicio's videos. Jesse San knows well what I'm referring to. 👍
I'm only into my second month of karate classes and I came to this realization instinctively. I don't have the endurance or the kicking range. If something happens, it has to be over up close and quick.
man this guy is right this blew my mind, i've been getting into karate recently and was a bit meh because it seems like its become all about doing nice katas and traditional stuff, but the karate this guy just showed makes way more sense guys
I am still coming down from my surgery I had over a month ago (So I haven't been able to step in the dojo for over a month) but I have to say Jesse, reading the Bubishi and watching your videos (some for a 2nd and 3rd time) has really opened my eyes to more then just sparring. I have been trying to improve my Bunkai and this video was exactly what I was missing. This was a great video and I look forward to watching and learning more! You have helped improve my Karate greatly.
My absolute pleasure! 😄 Get well soon and take care 💪
Whoa!! The last 50 seconds of the video blew my mind. Awesome video :D
Awesome! Thanks for watching ✌️
varun shah I got a fight with Randy Or
Excellent , the opening moves of yondan as a sweep I’ve never noticed that before THANKS KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK 👍
Good eye! 👍
You explained this very well. Some "teachers" are great fighters; but can't teach you what they know.
Woah this opened my eyes bro I didn't knew a secret was there!
Woooow your english is so clear to understand. I'm Mexican and my first lenguaje is spanish and I,m learning english but I can understand you perfectly.
You have a new follower... Osu!!!
Muchas gracias! 😁
One idea, worth a million bucks. I've been applying this by practicing with the "bunkai practice dummy" Jesse describes in another video.
Jesse sensei, this is really genious! You have shown us the two principles that convert the seamingly ackward movements of kata into meaningful and effective techniques: 1. A block is a lock is a throw. 2. Adapt the distance. This totally changed for me the meaning of kata practice, and allows me to unlock so many practical techniques hidden in the kata. I think we should put more emphasis in the practice of realistic bunkai, in which you must close in to your opponent,as a contrast of what we usually do in competitive kumite. Thank you so much!
Excellent video Sensei! Why some people want to make the claim that karate and kata are not for self-defense or have very limited self defense application, just eludes me. No one can make a better case to the contrary than you have in this video. The designers of kata were deeply thinking people and didn’t design kata because they had nothing else to do. The katas are replete with all kinds of self defense applications disguised in a “dance”. Good work, Jesse.
I haven't trained in nearly 20 years, but I'm thinking back to a bit of kata I remember from years ago and making more sense out of it already.
Need $ to get back into training!!!
Thank you very much sensei jessy for your simple and easy to apply explanations, greetings from Argentina, Oss
This BFO occured for me a few years ago and I have never looked back. Kata is a very important element but, must be taught this way. Thank You!
Just loved this video.. The long range application is exactly how karate is taught nowadays. U have brought a new perspective so easily.. Taught my students this and they were so surprised by its usage..
Never thought of blocks as having another purpose, awesome video!
”A block, is a lock, is a blow, is a throw.”
The term used for block 'uke' translates more literally to 'receive' than block, which is to stop an attack. Think uke techniques more like deviating energy of an attack rather than outright stopping the movement.
u know what, u are doing karate at a very modern scale and I appreciate it . I am a kyokushin fighter and now I see how good all these things can actually be , osu
That’s a very good. And like you say karate was designed for self defense not being prepared to fight someone. All Okinawa katas are close quarter defense. Great word !
I am a black belt of shotokan and I have started to practice Goju-Ryu. Many of the techniques, with the Goju filter, have come to make sense or have a real application. Unfortunately, most Shotokan dojos are focused on competition and the real use of kata techniques, the root of karate, will be lost.
I think the beauty of it is that the kata is useful for both short and long range. But in the short range, you have more leverage over the opponent; which means that if you have good technical skill, you won't have to worry about strength or speed.
That’s right! Applied kata in real life scenarios. It’s taken me many years to see this open in this way. Thanks again for sharing Jesse San.
Oyata Sensei was teaching exactly that, 40 some years ago.
I always thought that Kata was used to preserve the forms so they would not be lost. If everything is fluid then some forms will be lost.
Amazing stuff Sensei Jesse, arigato gazaimashita
That was a nice explanation. Thanks sensei
Was your best vídeo Jesse! Keep going... the translation about “bunkai” you nail it !
This is great Jesse san. I love teaching alternatives and this is one of them changing the distance changes blocking to striking and even throwing. Absolutely great video. Keep them coming. And thank you.
Sometimes, the smallest details make the biggest difference 😊
Absolutely love your ideas on bunkai applications, me having a Taekwondo background studied katas almost very similar to shotokan katas i wished my instructors ive trained with had the same principles as you but sadly they dont they have there own variations on how to do techniques which is what makes Tkd a joke in martial arts i stopped doing this cos i was wasting money and decided to do Tkd applications based on kata applications by myself and i learnt alot more than doing Tkd in a school which was teaching absolute rubbish and methods taught badly which if used in a real situation would be pointless and end up getting the victim hurt so my advice avoid Taekwondo its crap unless the methods make sense which to me it doesn't and i was doing it since 2004 i stopped at 2015 rant over lol🤣🤣🤣
So then literally these martial arts passed down as nothing but katas and everyone forgot the application of the moves. Wow.
Wow, never looked at it that way! Thanks
Jesse Sensei, thanks for explain! It was so clear and brilliant! I've already seen some applications like these (in short distances), but their causes were not so clear like the way You talked. Congratulations! Oss.
Great lesson!!! I have been looking for a way to reconcile my shotokan techniques with what I've learned with inside fighting in wing Chun. You've showed me they really are very similar just by changing the way we view and implement the moves. You're the best!
Hola me llamo Marcelo tengo 13 años y soy cinta azul de karate do shotokan kase ha , y eh visto videos que me an ayudado en combate pero aun haci no entiendo el idioma y me gustaria poder decirle al dueño si puede poner subtitulos al español haci le facilitara a mucha gente
Karate is the best martial art . And it works great whether for self defence or for fitness!. (At least in my case!)
Those who bash out at karate are being too ignorant!
Karate is what you make it! 👊
Absolutely ,
Thanks for sharing your ideas sensei 😊
Oss
Yes indeed Karate is a very amazing martial art. But the best? I disagree with that. I believe EVERY martial art have their own strengths and weaknesses. For example, a striking-based martial art would have the advantage on their punches/kicks but they lack the grappling aspects of fighting. Then a grappling-based martial art (let's say Judo), would have their strength on throws & submission, but would lack on punches/kicks.
i done judo and karate both have posistive and negative skills
OMG :D Its like you read my mind for years I have been saying its about APPLICATION and that nothing in Karate is impractical :D * super REI SUPER REI REI REI* OUSU
Excellent.. This is exactly what most people don't try to do.. Try the techniques in self defense range
Exactly! But that’s what the techniques were designed for 👊
Karthik Vailaya I got a fight with Randy or
Dustin Welch what?
I like very much your approach to bunkai. It solves the “waist” of using only 50% of our limbs, unlike wing chun for example, and gives to me a new vision for the study of kata. Many thanks!
Your explanation and your demostration is really really good!!! Yes! It's true if you there outside in Street! Have opponent you know what to do!! Programming in your all yourself and you know how to defend and offense! to your bad opponent! i really like your all explain and also your demo and really like it :)!!! 100% GOOD JOB! Osu!!!
That all should be covered from day 1 of the initiate or trainee,karateka,judoka er whut ever.
That is the number one reason m. a. fail ,because of the context and training
As far as art work,and tradition etc .no problems ,very beautiful and some health benefits etc..
Remember wax on wax off ,frum that muvie hahahahahahahahaha
Thx fer thu beneficial vid and info..
Most instructors had no idear as to why or reason ,they teach this ,and then spar an or fight by bouncing around and improvising ????????????
No sense at all ,,except ART work..
Hi Jesse, you spoke about the reasons why there is no more knowledge about the bunkai anymore. Cause of illiteratecy and bombardement in Okinawa. But how come that you know this. Where is this to be found more. I did shotokan 26 years ago. My sensei, 3rd dan did not know anything about bunkai. The first movement of heian shodan was a block from a kick.....
I just watched this video and this was my topic in class last night. Karate is used in 3 of the 4 ranges. We don't really do ground work, but long range, short range grappling and throwing. Great video.
Can I say...: at long range there is no self-defence but fighting strategies; at mid-range I parry and apply UKE to grab and hit the limbs; at closed-range UKE are mainly used as shown in the video...? Thanks for sharing
Great advice. As a beginner it puts Kata into context for me. Tried this today in class to great effect. Thanks for your videos, you are an excellent teacher
Sorry for my eanglish.
I start learn karate in 198? from my father, and all you words and samples I was hear from him, so it works in street(I know it from my little practice), and you goog when you talk. But I need to say- karate is very long way unlike boxing, it's hard path of the warrior, not sports men.
Osu.
Been studying martial arts for about 25-30 years. this never really occurred to me. Thank you for your insight.
You show it so simple and direct. Just great!
yes! It's true Up Close to your opponent or either 2 or either 3 more that 4 or 5! so defend and most likely attack! Paralysed to stop the attacking your opponent :)!!! Right Sensei Jesse?
Sadly they don't instill this concept even in traditional Karate dojos..
I think I first saw this in Silat, where they use sectors for distancing.. you should do a video with Maul Mornie.
True.these close forms are already there in wing chun & okinawa karate styles.but folks do not like fighting up close in dojos.controlling the neck,elbow & knee is true close fighting or any joint.a combination of karate,judo & aikido is the best for controlling close combat.
Awesome work sir. Osu. Sir can u pls post a video of how to throw hook punches pls. Because in karate combat, I saw ppl using that. So pls teach us how to throw a proper and effective hook in fights. Thanks in advance.
Makes me want to learn karate 😀
Considerations... Reducing the distance you are compelled to reduce using your sight in checking your opponent and start using your body feeling of their offensive movements.
Hello. Thanks a lot Jesse-san for the explication. I have never thought like that. You are right. My vision changed.
But understanding this principle karate now resembles more like a jujutsu system and not an Atemi system...
2:00 that makes sense. Is it technically termed 'hiki te' or did you just call it that because of how you were using it?
If it's technically called a 'hiki te' then i don't see why anyone would think it's used for anything but pulling, since 'hiki te' means 'pulling hand'
日本でもここまでしっかりした型の理解、把握、応用をしている人は本当に少ないと思います。
とても素晴らしい。
これに型の逆足の解釈が加わるともっと深い利用方法が得られると思います。
So my sensei teaches like this, but not in a way that it was broken down like shown. he likes to just show you some applications and has you figure out on your own or come up with it yourself. I still feel like that is practical for self exploration of movement and basically relearning kata.
Very great interpretation of kata and bunkai. Today people wants only mma and Krav Maga, but karate has much to teaching again..
my dojo never does bunkai or kumite. Kinda annoying because I think those are basically the two things that makes the karate very useable
At a guess, kata practice at distance was historically used as the basic teaching route, with closing distance being the more advanced method later in your development...but this has been lost as such aspects are not often seen or taught often in older martial arts styles...our style is the same. Beginners are taught distance, before closing distances when they get the basics down. Kata is also just a teaching, information transmission tool, it does not often relate directly to practical application hence why it looks useless to many outside observers...
hii bro ,i just wann ask that after learning katas and its bunkais we need a pratice that whenever a sudden attack comes we get panic and for a couple of seconds our mind doesnt works,thats why we need a pratice that allows us to suddenly deal with a sudden attack or something just like that..............please help me out .....
Wow! awesome! i never think in that way!
Do mma as well as karate and rematch your brother and join the UFC you wood be great
I never understood or enjoyed Kata until I explored these concepts. Changing the distance meant Kata made sense finally!
Hey Jesse! It would be great if you make videos of advanced hidden techniques in katas, greetings and best wishes!
sensei you just opened my eyes(i already know a good number of senior kata bunkai but this would help me out more) oss
Wow thanks so much sensei I have learnt so much from this video
Awesome! 👍
I got a fight whit randy or
I was taught that every block might alternately be a strike and vice versa. We used crescent kicks more as blocks than attacks. No technique has only one use.
Well said, Jesse san. For many year, my sensei told me, "punches can be blocks and blocks can be punches."
U r the great karate master sensei. Really liked the idea of bunkai. Thank u so much. Oss!!
Very Good. A good Karateka Knows his Origins and Knows how to apply Them. Good Job
Hey whats up jessie im a blue belts in karate i would realy like if you can do teach a few katas i stopped learning karate and i would like to leran some highly level katas
I seem to remember Motobu saying like this as well. Karate was meant for self defense, so it is about infighting as a whole.
"Karate Nerd" is OK. You should have gone with "Viking Ninja".
Hi Jesse hi love your complicity with your brother. Much love from Portugal
Thank Sensei the pulling back to you chest I also a strike to enemy on you back or protection so whe you pull back to the chest packet elbow is a strike to a second opponent
THIS concept changes EVERYTHING
What you actually said is that doing anything in a different way does something else... again vague nonsense wins the day.
Its applying the three circles, and the understanding that a fight is close range unless you have a weapon with range to it.
simple and effective. just karate. Regards grom Poland
If you spar with your brother using karate while he uses MMA, is karate enough to win?
That's the reason why I looking for karate after 20 years ving chun
thank you very much for all that you give for the karate and especially the traditional
Brilliant! Now, how would you close effectively ?
A lot of karate is designed for fighting empty handed against someone with a sword
wow this amzing just change little mind set and every thing look more better
