The Shuto is an iconic move in traditional Karate. Some folks use it as a block, but clever karateka also use it as a strike!
Like all martial arts techniques, there's a right way to execute a Shuto and a wrong way. The right way relies of setting up your strike with a hikite.
By deflecting and trapping your attacker's arm first, you open the door to a powerful swordhand counter. But be careful--if your timing is off, or if you're too slow, you might find yourself in big trouble.
Let me know about your experiences with the Shuto. Let's all keep learning from each other! :)

Mike Tyson once said, "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face."
Boxing was made to destroy the opponent.
Kung Fu and karate is for defense
just once thats bs karate and kung fu was made for the exact same reason
Rasta BoomBoom well you see you can be in the wrong depending on the style of Kung Fu were speaking of. If you’re talking about Shaolin Kung Fu, the art was strictly made for protecting against invaders. However, if we’re talking about Wushu, or in other words competitive Kung Fu, then yes the art was made for striking.
@@justonce8875 😂😂😂
Actually he said mouth, it's punched in the mouth.
I had a GREAT time being on your show Sensei Ando! 😄 Thanks again & keep up the great work! 🙏 PS. Next time I'm in LA I'm coming for you 🐯
Jesse Enkamp
are you related to oliver Enkamp?
te ipsum My little brother 🙂
Yes, sir! Always happy to build a bridge with another open-minded martial artist! I look forward to a Tiger-Crane training session... or lunch! :)
Hey, wouldn't it be better to throw the O-soto-gari after stepping next to his foot with your back foot? You would generate much more force I think, just using like a millisecond more time.
Caleb Mühlhause Yes kuzushi is essential
And Mike Tyson goes: "Thats so cute. I'll eat Your ears."
And he would!
Hey not getting any younger,you know.Its even possible to Beat Chuck Norris now,of you are a trained young sportsman.
FewYearsBehind you are not fighting guys like mike Tyson everyday.
@@AndoMierzwa it is actual an effective self defense. Ear biting, eye poking..etc. that is where the martial sport and real martial art differ. Ty sifu
@@shadowlancer45 It's good to have as many tools in your toolbox as possible.
Seems like there's a counter for everything when you're in tune with yourself, the fight and your opponent. Thanks Sensei.
There is always a counter, yes. But you gotta try! :)
Spoiler alert:
They only compare, they do not fight
Bigger spoiler, they both lost to a gun XDDDD
Wish I had read this 12 mins ago.
@Eric Carr wdym
And the gunner will lose to a tank or a helicopter,so whats the Point?
If you view this as a collaboration instead of a comparison, everyone wins. 🙏
Loved this video guys! Most of all... I love the end message, which it seems most people on youtube ignore... great job! Thank you.
True. Anything can work if you make it work. It's up to you, not your style! Thank you for this comment!
We can all learn from eachother 🙏
Mad respect to all practitioners of the various martial arts of the world. May you and your loved ones remain safe and happy for many years.
Sincerely - a practitioner of Funikoshi Karate.
OSU SENSEI!
+Rainman Slim Respect and well wishes to you and yours, too, sir! Osu!
Same back at you, Thank you.
Gichin Funakoshi* please Type the correct name of the shomen
Same to you my friend
If u would be from funakoshi* u would say oss or not huh?
Stop philosophizing and fight each other lol.
“If you do this, I’d do this!”
“Oh yeah?? Well if you did that, I would do this!”
Just put it into practice and put it on RUclips so we see who wins!
I can’t afford the plane ticket. I’ll start saving!
But that's how theoretical martial arts work
What would be the point in that?
A fight proves who can win on that day nothing else, nothing would be learned from it as that comes from discussion and debate without ego.
This is why after a fight there is often a rematch as a fight proves nothing.
However after a real fight is usually bad blood so any discussion and sharing of knowledge and ideas would end.
If you think these videos are about which style is better than the other then you don't understand the point of martial arts.
There is often more than 1 correct solution to the same problem, blinding yourself to any other ideas and proving you are better than anyone else is a game for ego idiots.
If you do martial arts for self defense then the idea is to gain the experience to not get hurt, so if you have a fight with something then you will get hurt so that is not good self defense if you have to prove yourself through fighting.
I know you are joking and having fun but watch this clip and you will understand the point of what these 2 channels are doing and why there should be more friendly discussion of martial arts and sharing knowledge to improve martial arts over all instead of ego in fighting: ruclips.net/video/ZVkI0vbHcz4/видео.html
U took my words out 😂 😀
Lol the rock paper scissors explanations XD
You guys both are hilarious and also very educational at the same time! Love this vid; keep up the awesome lessons coming, please’
Very kind of you, John! Thank you!
You guys are awesome! That is a real Martial Artist. A Martial Arts for peace, harmony and friendship. Thank you Sensei Ando and Sensei Jesse for inspiring me on this kind of video. Wish you both the best in 2019. Happy New Year!
Thank you for the good vibes, sir! Peace and happiness to you, too! :)
This looks fun! I didn’t know they had a collab video together. Awesome informative stuff! 👏🏻👏🏻
So glad you liked it! Thank you!
Great video guys! I love the back and forth exchange of knowledge done in a fun and friendly way. Sensai Ando gave a wonderful explanation of counter techniques and ended it all on a fun and friendly note.
Got to keep it friendly, right? Thanks for the kind words!
After all that talk about #1 and #2, what I really need to hit is the bathroom.
That... is hilarious! :D
Appreciated!
+Ando Mierzwa In boxing then No.2 is meant to come a millisecond after the jab almost as one punch, b-bam, can`t see how grabbing comes into it.
Mark Ant the shuto move Jesse showed has the same rhythm.
The lesson here is "Don't give Sensi Ando the bird!!! The Crane that is. ;)
HA! Good lesson! Thanks for watching, sir!

Respect to both of you !
Thanks for lovely video.
Thank you very much for the comment!
Hey Sensei Ando Its funny, I used to have two awesome karate teachers, awesome humble guys, and you remind me of them. God bless you and keep inspiring people!
You guys should fight. Against each other. In real life.
Do a live stream for it?
I have too much respect for my brain. :)
Ando Mierzwa Fair enough. Who would win though? If you did. Honestly.
@@joemo1033 Most likely the Kung Fu but Karate if used correctly could win as well
@@Poipletoitle331 Nah Kung Fu only works if you're some Shaolin monk type of guy. It never works for someone who doesn't dedicate his entire life to it. I would bet all my money to Karate. There is a simple way to counter all the things the Kung Fu guy said: Deflect his punch. Almost no one does deflecting better than Karatekas. In a real fight the Karateka would simply deflect/block and not to the shuto
@@ubisons6161 Depends because anyone serious about Kung Fu would already have a second attack to counter the block it's kinda like Anakin vs Obi Wan in episode 3 Anakin would've won because he was breaking down Obis defense but he opened himself up and was beaten same thing here because Karate is mainly defensive and Kung Fu is mainly offensive if Kung Fu doesn't open itself up it should win but a lot of moves while extremely powerful and will knock someone out of a fight in one hit open themselves up to the counter and strike method of Karate
Thank you both for showing both styles I have respect for all martial arts I guess knowledge is powerful learnt things from both of you
Chinese Kung Fu but wearing Japanese gi, and fight reactions are military Kombat instead of traditional martial arts
Fighting is fighting if you boil it all down.
@@AndoMierzwa lol thats what a fake would say.
@@AndoMierzwa yea it doesn't matter if you fight with ti chi, kravmaga, kempo or just plain old, all out street fighter if you can make those techniques work for you and win a fight no matter what you have to do politics are useless and combat is combat. It's all for self-defense and survival how would all these people sitting at home watching kung fu movies even think about judging a technique without really sparring or fighting for your life against someone who is skilled and knows how to apply their own techniques with out an exhibition a fighter that is truly gifted and dedicated to his or her art I don't think you are a fake Andro I'm sure you are not giving away all of your secrets every good fighter has those certain little tricks to get in a good defensive/offensive position to execute I mean ism trained in Ryu kyu kempo, Jeet kune do and bjj when it comes to unrefined combat and my life is on the line I'll play as dirty as I have to to survive or not get hit at all politics goes out the window when you get attacked I would like to train with you some my friend.
@@BigMoney398 no he's right. Teaching heritage requires more detail. But fighting attire in a real fight should be random as a fight will be. But you are a hater.
@@healthyandrew5294 Right. I just wear what I like. Not a big deal, really! :)
Great video Sensei Ando!! A lot of respect for you and Sensei Jesse👏👏 I follow you both on youtube. Two of the best Senseis I've seen here💪💪👍✌
Respect back to you, my friend. Thank you for the support! Happy training!👍🏼
what a great collaboration!
+EricSwearingenMusic Glad you liked it! It was fun!
*ROASTED*
BOOM! :D
That is in Chinese
Not really. It's all about the teacher. I'd just visit some gym until you find someone you can trust.
Jason Shibley Ando is right about the teacher. also, it depends on what specific things you're looking for to add to your arsenal or skills and how realistic it should be or not.
Jason Shibley practically anything practiced full contact will automatically force you to learn some (more) realistic skills. muay thai has a lot to offer, but I'm not crazy about too much focus on the round low kicks. they are mostly good for drawn out matches, but can easily expose you in selfdefense situations. it has great clinch techniques and straight kicks though. but usually not great boxing.
actual boxing, especially dirty boxing as in Filipino martial arts Panantukan, is extremely useful and realistic and weirdly enough very underestimated these days. most martial artists won't stand a chance against a decent boxer on the street.
judo is never to be underestimated, also mainly because of the 'full contact' or rather 'alive' practice of realistic throws.
karate styles like kyokushin, ashihara, and enshin have a broad range of realistic techniques and are developed for selfdefense and practiced full contact. (edge)
weapons familiarity and disarming would be a very useful part of training, the only widely spread system I'm aware of being somewhat practical in a last resort situation regarding edge weapons would be escrima. forget about bullshido like krav maga, Russian systema or aikido which make unrealistic claims about weapons selfdefense (and basically everything else).
catch wrestling is a great system for the ground and takedowns, up to par with and possible surpassing BJJ. don't know where you are located but check out the guys at Snake Pit USA.
Russian sambo is also a realistic ground system.
hope this helps.
The collaborative quality of these videos is a lesson in itself.
We're all martial artists, right? :)
I'm subscribed to both of you guys so this stuff is awesome. Please make more!!😎🤙
I appreciate that. Thank you! 🙏🏻
LOL,perfect ending, I'm not even into martial arts but I watch your videos cause you, sir, are a funny guy, the kind of funny guy I wouldn't fight tbh
That's a great compliment, sir! Thanks. Now, let's talk about you starting some classes.... :)
Stop doing this hypothetically...
Just organize a real fight for God's sake 🤠
We’re sharing ideas… it’s up to you to see if they work for you!
@@AndoMierzwa You and Enkamp are fucking fake like Dillman and Ashida Kim.
jpsholland, sit your ass down and shut the fuck up, pussy-mouth. Ain't even know what you be sayin, these two senseis are knowledgeable and effective teachers, your comment just shows your cognitive level hangs lower than your crusty balls.
Blue Sol damn.... you flamed my boi😳
and you're a keyboard warrior which is worse.
The Karate Nerd brought me here. You are now the new champion of us old guys!
Ha! And getting older every day. 😄 Keep fighting, sir! 👊🏼
Great videos guys! It's so nice to see when Martial Artists are humble enough to exchange ideas and have fun with concepts instead of simply proclaiming my style or system is the BEST! Looking forward to more. Tim x
+Martial Arts and Fitness UK Thanks for the support! Happy training!
LOVE THIS! We always encourage our students to question any of the techniques I teach (with respect of course). If I don't have an answer, I shouldn't teach it. 'Funny' enough, without thinking about it I used Shuto on someone who randomly swung a knife at my brother. Just happened to be the right strike for that situation. Luckily, I haven't had to use my training much more than that.
Good point! You never really know what a situation will require. We just train as diligently as possible and hope we have enough tools to solve whatever problems we face. Hope that was the last time you need to chop somebody! 😄
Thank you for your informative videos! My first Karate Lesson is tomorrow.. You're the best!
Congrats! I hope you had a blast!
Sensei Ando and Sensei Jesse are just amazing human beings! I'm subscribed in both their channels and following them...they helping me fight my depression....thank you guys! 👍
Positive people building bridges… that’s how we will all survive! Keep fighting, my friend!
Ando Mierzwa Thank you Sir! 👍
All of a sudden I end of binge watching all of Sensei Ando's videos. What a fun night. XD
+Siddhant Misra Ha! That makes my day. I better get busy making more videos! Thank you! :-)
Always a pleasure to get a reply. Thank you. :D
Always a pleasure to get a comment! :)
hey you know what.. why don't you two just fight face to face.. and that's how we see who wins
You might see WHO wins, but that doesn't prove which style wins. Spoiler alert: Any style CAN win. :)
Ando Mierzwa we still wanna see WHO wins though ;)
Saxier 18 I think they both suck..😁😂😂
@@AndoMierzwa Now you make it sound like "Muslims are bad Islam is good." Of course I bring religion into the equation here because you're making excuses like a priest.
@@Southeast_Asian_Devil The concept of your analogy is indeed clever, but does not directly apply, as an analogy should, because that is not what he is saying.
If 10 boxers went up against 10 wrestlers, for example, how does one determine which style is better? The obvious and immediate answer is, whichever style has more victories. Ok, here's the problem with that:
Boxers win 6 out of 10. Now, everyone fights again but this time boxers win 4 out of 10. Or what if it's tied? Now bring in a fresh set of 20 fighters and this time boxing wins 3...And after changing opponents boxing wins 7...and so on. There is no way to tell which style is better because it always depends on the fighter. So it's easier to determine which fighter is better than which style, and even then you have the same problem. A champion today could be a loser tomorrow and vice versa. Ever see a rematch fight? Is the previous victor always the reigning victor? ✌🙏
I love your videos Ando, I am sharing this... they are entertaining and educational... I would like to see something about Jiu Jitsu, and boxing.
I'll make a note. Thanks for the comment, sir!
Thanks guys, lots of love and laughs
Love to you, too!
I respect you both..!!.. you both are doing very good job by explaining very deep points about your Martial arts styles.... thanks for teaching us with this awesome way ...
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Shuto looks a lot like the crane style kung fu practioners. "crane wing?" oh wait. Karate comes from Okinawa? Okinawa was a blending pot where Chinese influence was involved? So maybe Kung fu and Karate are closely related and instead of arguing and fighting amongst each other, we should stick together and friendly spar?
~sincerely just an student of Chinese and western boxing.
Yes, Ryan. YES! :)
Ando Mierzwa lol I could go further and talk about Chin Na kung fu influence over Jujitsu (but that's controversial and might trigger a UFC fanboy where style vs style is the modern propaganda) either way I love both countries martial arts. Chin Na and Aiki jujutsu, and 'Merican wrestlin' are my favorite grappling systems especially for self defense. The first two were designed for war and combat.
Ando what is your opinion on my 3 favorite types of grappling?
I am open to learning from anyone in any style. That's my opinion! :)
just as Bruce Lee taught us
ryan dravinski Karate actually derived from Kung fu. Possible white crane? One of our most widely taught kata, Kushanku, is actually named after a Chinese diplomat who is said to have brought kung fu to Okinawa, which then developed into what is now called karate
"That's not Kung Fu, that's Dumb Fu."
Always exemplary, always educational, always a role model! RESPECT Sensei Ando!
Keep it classy! :D Thank you!
Ando Mierzwa Well deserved, sir! Keep fighting!
The last thing you said is the truest I've heard from any martial arts video. It's not the style - it's the skill of the artist.
Absolutely the truth. Thank you, sir!
I thought Filipino things is useless coz i live in the Philippines but that all changed when I realized he knows Filipino martial art
My two favourite channels on Martial arts
That's very nice of you! Thanks!
+Ando Mierzwa Can you do your moves countering a boxers moves or some sparring vid of boxer v kung fu expert?
thats sad
Just subscribed Sensei Ando. Been following Jesse for about six weeks. I started training in MA's in 74. I hung my belt up in 2014 out of frustration. Both you and Jesse advocate open minded ness and recognition of application before spoon fed aesthetics. Thanks to both of you for reigniting my interest it Karate ( my foundation) and now Kung Fu. Many thanks to you both👍
So glad you made it back to the path, sir! Training will always pay you back. Keep going!👍🏼
I like how the contrasting viewpoints bring out the best in both fighting arts. ☺
Absolutely. We can all learn from each other.
DO Kung fu vs wwe... XD
I just turn off the TV. :)
Ando Mierzwa Haha xD Kung fu vs thumb wrestling?
Keep your hands in your pocket. :)
Nice idea XD hhhh
In my Karate system, we used to have a throw that was recently taken out because it can’t be practiced safely. But it entailed grabbing the back of their neck, grabbing under their crotch, and throwing them over your head and causes them to land on their head and break their neck.
Ok to be honest the martial arts is affective depending the person. My friend is a good fighter in mma and i'm good at mi one martial art. I'm just saying jot all martial arts are not made for every single person.
Exactly right!
Terrific job guys, great video from different perspectives.
Thank you for the comment!
great video.... loved this !
great martial arts fun !
I appreciate that. Thank you! 🙏🏻
You just earned a subscriber.
Honored! :)
Awesome video as always Sensei Ando ! But now, will you have the courage to challenge a true warrior, a killing machine... Master Ken himself ! ? :D
mrtocard 😂😂😂 great
Ha! I try to keep at least two states between me and Master Ken at all times! :)
***** wise decision sensei Ando haha

Love the respect you guys have
Karate begins and ends with good respect, right? Thank you! 🙏🏻
@@AndoMierzwa so true
Interesting love to get into this style understanding :) Love to do the same. Very friendly but I have some thoughts about both. Loved the Video. Really glad to meet ya. I would like to thank Jesse for all his hard work too. Thanks
Yes, sir... keep it friendly and we can all learn a lot more! Thank you for the comment!
you shuld do kung fu vs judo
Great idea! :)
omgggggg
Ando Mierzwa are you gonna make that vid kung fu vs judo it whuld be interasting to se btv i watch your videos all the time
Shuai jiao vs judo. Both are grappling arts.
green gamer I
I like both Karate AND Kung fu! I use both shuto and tiger claw. Also, the funny thing about the crane was that my friend who studied an unknown martial art told me I was a crane stylist since I had a really defensive fighting style and the way I played dodgeball. Years later, I think I'm more a cat now. XD Keep pumping out the good stuff! From Tokyo. 0w0
Greetings from the USA, Naori! Thanks for the comment!
This is cool both you and Jesse are dope. I like it, very easy to understand and fun to watch
Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching! :)
Hi Sir. Very nice! I see and clear the different. Thank you
Thank you for the comment!
There's a reason boxers keep their hands near their face and use minimal effort/motion to block. Jabs aren't easy to block and are near impossible to grab. I don't care if this guy had 20 tries to try and catch a jab. The chance of him grabbing even one jab would be very low.
Also, wouldn't sidestepping into that chop and trying to dodge with movement be more effective?
Good point! There are many ways to use the hands and feet. This is just one or two. I'm a big fan of dodging when I can, too!
in karate you create openings in your opponent, this move is very efficient, think speed - deballance - power, moving from one motion to the other. the block is excadurated to create the oppening to both grab the wrist and travel up the arm ⚡ speed, simple, effective and powerfull with the full arm land against a falling opponent. all he needs to do its block it once and he's IN. in TMA blocking jabs is possible, we creat distance and don't turtle 🐢🥊 up untill things get close... or at all in some cases. very differen't fighting principles. your not going to have time to side step🥋💨 you're bearly gonna have time to throw that "two". i would recommend commiting to the flow of the move aswell. in the battle of 🐅 vs 🥋he who underestimates the others ability is sure to lose. infact i'd say go fore arm to block rather than open hand to stop the sword hand chop/shunt. then something like 🐅 leaping tiger in long grass(crossed/oppossed arms), steals man from atop 🐘 wailing elephant bach. (yes this happens in some parts of india.) anyways a 🐯 can go right up you... as a boxer🤔 i'd say same thing, 🥊but lean into the raised forarm then shunt/push the karate 🥋 guy off you by putting your head up against the inside of your forearm so its your hole body against theirs. then one you get the caught arm back, haymaker with it as the karate guy will be i'll advised to stop it off ballance. not as fancy as the tiger body climbing head grab, but just as effective.
Vesuvius ... Last part first. Yes the dodging with movement is more efficient - in some circumstances. However,that blocking section if done hard and fast can momentarily stun the push arm. This is an advantage.
Jabs? I agree to a point. Hard to deal with boxing vs boxing. However, train to slip the jab. Rather than grab it, track it back to the puncher and press it against his chest/shoulder - wherever it returned to. Follow up in an appropriate manner.
RealJutsu56 that's 100% theoretical.
Jab, hook, kick to balls followed by elbow to head.
Uncle Uncle u'll win I know
That is EXACTLY right on! You guys were awsome
Thank you very much, m'Lord!
You are right my friend. We need to respect and edify each other. To often we tear down where we should respect. Nice info by the way.
I thought Chinese king fu masters are called siefu and senses is Japanese 😂
True! Some people study both. Thanks for watching!
Daniel Leniu, Chinese Instructors are called "Sifu" (See-foo) but mostly are called that in Western countries. Sifu is used for many peoples in China. Sensei (sen-say) is the term for Japanese arts. And it is said like this "Daniel Sensei" not Sensei Daniel. Hope this helps you.
I like Grasshopper, Kwai Chang Caine. Lol
@@Reason1717 sensei just means teacher. Like sifu.
Kids in Japanese schools call their teachers sensei like we call ours teacher. It's not only for martial arts.
Just amending your otherwise correct comment, thanks.
@@siddified , Thank you. More knowledge on the topic is a win for all :)
Karate > Kung Fu
I’ve been studying northern style and southern style Kung fu for around 10 years now, and it is truly an amazing art, but it’s not a Rock Paper Scissors with martial arts no matter what art you study you need the dedication and skill to back it up
Wise words! Thank you!
Hahaha! You guys are great to watch. Eating the turkey leg was a riot.
Thank you kindly, sir!
the explainations are worth nothing as long as you dont show it in a fight.
2:46 "As I cross my hand..." You get hit with the cross.
Always move to the outside. Take advantage of foot work.
Whenever possible, you bet!
You are a good martial artist love your vids and know this kid will always watch your vids
I’m glad you’re here, Scott! Keep fighting!👊🏼
Very good, Thank you very much
Thank you for watching!
Do Jiu Jitsu vs WWE
😂😂😂
The Real ZMP , rko
My Kempo class had a kung fu sudent come in to join our sparring and he lost.
Robert Schuster. Knew a Wushu Kung fu Shifu that would work our Ed Parker style Kenpo class. Most of us with one hand.... Its the person not the style...just saying.
@D core It wasn't fights to the death.
Presentation simply interesting and wonderful , two pillers of martial arts working together .
I like this guy, first he is great expierence fighter, and second he finds the time to actually respond to people comments!
Ha! I try to keep up. Thank you for taking the time to comment first!
I could easily debunk this video
And, yet, here you are.
try with a kyukushin karate fighter
Another fantastic video. I go back to the old days of the 70"s when I idolized people like Demetrius Havanis ..Skipper Mullins....Fred Wren...Bill Wallace. But I'll never forget a tournament in Dallas Texas when Demetrius Havanis took apart a kung fu stylist. There had been words between the two before the match....and Demetrius was one to never back down from anyone. I have great memories from those days....just wanted to share.
Thanks for sharing, sir!
The first traditional martial artist that is not delusional. respect for you sir.
Ha! Traditional arts have much to offer... as long as we keep it real. Thanks! :)
Kung fu rule Oh yeah love wing Chun r.i.p sifu Bruce Lee and sifu yip man
I agree! :D
Kung fu wins!
If you're training, you're winning! :)
Great video! I enjoyed both perspectives. Even though I'm a karate guy, I'd have to agree with you on this one Sensei!
I'm a fan of karate, too. And the Shuto can work for sure. Just some friendly thinking. Thanks for the comment!
It's not about which is the martial art it's about who's the fighter is.
I liked this video.
Agree 100%!
Karate is LITERALLY the evolution of Kung Fu. Whilst I agree that Kung Fu is WAY richer in culture and mysticism. When it comes to self defense and just flat out beating some one up, Karate (most styles of Karate) is far superior. Its less show.
Whatever works for you, sir!
B Campos 2 very different branches of the same tree
EvilSwordman biased much? they are different things. karate was developed for selfdefense, Kung Fu was developed for exercise. they only look similar to the noob eye. btw there's nothing 'basic' about karate. if you knew anything about karate you would know this. it's also not copied from Kenpo as you falsely claim.
EvilSwordman yeah, no. Okinawa. and before u start off on how there was influence from Chinese on the development of Okinawa Te, there was influence all over the world's many directions from everywhere. it doesn't make it the same, and it certainly doesn't make some random Chinese martial art better.
karate evolved in its own way and is fundamentally different from kung fu. especially notably in the way that it's much more realistic.
I'm getting pretty sick and tired of this constant frustrated Chinese propaganda crap about who invented martial arts.
bottom line: China/Chinese didn't. and certainly not karate.
kung fu is not a martial art. wushu means art of battlefield. so why it doesnt sound like exercice? idiot. kung fu is more complete than karate. accept that !!!
Kung Fu's response isn't even the same move! Your hands are crossed. Just watch your own video and see the mistake.
If I understand you, you can perform the shuto a couple different ways. Jesse-sensei shows both the deflection/ catch and the crossed chamber. The point is we end up in the same position... a forearm on the neck. Thanks for the keen eye, sir!
Ando Mierzwa Fair enough. Thanks for the videos!
+Josh Brammer My pleasure, sir! Thanks for watching!
Hi Sensei Ando, I enjoy your videos and find them very informative as well as humorous- thank you sir! One question that came to mind when watching this: It's an initial left hand strike, which I'm imagining might happen maybe 25% of the time tops? While I can appreciate the punch/counterpunch nature of this video, it left me a little out-of-sorts as I imagine most folks would be throwing a right-handed haymaker. If I'm in the same right leg back guarding stance and a right-handed punch is thrown, I imagine the response isn't quite as simple as a mirror image. Any thoughts you'd be willing to share? Thanks again!
Hi Steffan! Same principles apply to either hand, so I wouldn’t get too hung up on what’s in the video. But it’s also true that that the big right haymaker is often preceded by a left-hand push, jab, or grab. Training to attack the first hand that comes near you might help you avoid the big right! Happy training to you!
LOVE IT!!!!
Happy to hear from you, sir! Thanks!
I'm a Karateka...and that guy ain't a Karate Genius
Come on... Jesse is awesome!
Ando Mierzwa what is your style? Wingchun?
Kung Fu San Soo mainly.
Girija Sankar he just likes that move, i never use it actually because i dont think its efficent, but he may be really good with it and there's nothing wrong with that..
oh i thought your style is hung gar =(

So tired of MMA meatheads roasting true martial arts
im tired of mma meatheads aswell but this is not true martial arts
jojibot exactly
Great job to both of you!
Thank you very much, sir!
This was greatl I love it. Learn some things and have fun too. Please do some more. Now I have to do some homework.
Ha! Yes, do your homework! :)
The fact that you know about hikite just shows in how far martial arts actually are alike.
Thanks for showing that!
We all have more in common that we sometimes think! :)
Super useful for me because I do traditional Karate and I am a green belt but it's good to know from a kung fu and karate masters.Thank you so much for your advice
Thanks, Ana! Congrats on the green belt. Keep going! 👊🏼
A lot of people here wanted to see an actual fight to see how they would do, but especially when I saw the end of the video, felt that it wasn't about that. I think they are both trying to encourage people to keep an open mind, and to really think about their technique, to always be refining and such. It's always good to see techniques tried out in the real world to see what works, but I think fighting it out, they felt, may have overshadowed that message. At any rate, it's a very informative video, and I love the sense of humor of both these guys.
Right! You don’t learn much by just watching two other people fight… it’s all about what information you can use for yourself. Thanks for the comment!
Was about to write "punches in bunches" wouldn't work precisely because of Hikite, but Sensei Ando was faster, who would've thought?
I love your humour and mutual respect, great video!
Thanks very much! We're obviously both geniuses! :)
Very enjoyable!! Great but friendly challenge!
Glad you liked it, Patrick! Thanks for watching!
I was never taught the shoto in my classes, but I did teach myself the technique the same way they did it. I suppose experience can teach you some things like that :3
Training on shotokan , youre still a great inspiration. I think most big arts equal and it all depends on the artist and not the art , and youre a great artist.
You are absolutely correct. :)
Hello Ando do you feel it's wise for someone to learn 2 different styles of Karate at the same time? I would think I'd get confused on what moves to make and in what school?
I’d say it’s better to study two styles that really are different from one another. Like karate and grappling. Learning how to punch one way in the beginning is hard enough without learning a different way at the same time. Go deep, not wide in the beginning!
Great Jesse as always! Just a question : when you sais "it's the more advance way to do the Shuto" what level did you have in mind?
Jesse Sensei probably won’t see that comment. But thank you for watching!
hello Sensei Ando, love your show. question where did you get your black and white belt? or how did you make it?
Thanks for asking! I made that belt. It's my tribute to Yin Yang. It reminds me that I've learned a lot but still have a long way to go!
Good tips! Old school Ando! Great picture.
Thanks for dropping by, Sifu! 😄👊🏼🙏🏻
