Thanks for your nice comments! 😄 So fun to show you behind-the-scenes of my Karate work/life. Visit my website to learn more: www.karatebyjesse.com 👍
great stuff as always Jesse - the Preying Mantis bit in the kata you were practicing was interesting - what kata is it?
Jesse Enkamp can you teach us how to use nunchaku whether is in kata or bunkai and you are awesome btw
Good day Jesse San how's your mom
Jesse Enkamp how did you make those noises when you were training
Have a good lunch Sensei
“Nothing ever grows in the comfort zone”.... love it! Words to live by.
"never let your style limit your karate "
4:10 I’m so glad I’m not the only one who gets the urge to kick buttons and doors 😂
ALWAYS! 👊
Yes!! 😆
i think i flick light switches on with my feet more than my fingers
I always kick tge doors and my father and grandma start yelling at me. my mother gave up hope. she knows no one can fix me.
Yup
PREACH! "If you're not completely dead after a kata you are not pushing your limits" I tell this to our students all of the time. Some of the best workouts come from just doing kata. Love your vids!
I'm only a striped belt and am learning the basics of kata, but I'm always the earliest to arrive and am ready to learn😄
Nobody asked but anyway that's veery good for you continue that way and you'll reach really really far
Am 1st dan black belt
Wow! The Technique shown at 14:35 is Kote-Gaeshi in Aikido and the technique shown at 14:45 is named Juji-Garami in Aikido. So to me, every martial art is connected somehow.
I've practiced Aikido over 20 Years and now i am into Karate. Does this make me a martial-Arts-Nerd? I hope so ;-)
It does very much
Your stances and techniques are so impressive. I love watching you perform those kata. So impressive
" Never let your style limit your Karate " that is what i will take with me on my martial arts Journey. Thanks Jesse
It’s not the first time I say this, but you seriously rock the contemporary world of Karate.
Great vid mate!
I'm white belt just started today
Jesse, muy complacido de ver un joven artista marcial como tu. Eres una inspiración para los jovenes de hoy.
8:16 Hey! You're making my "stubbed my toe" face.
😂😂😂
Sensei Jesse,I'm learning so many offensive and defensive techniques by just watching and putting into practise your kata demonstration.Thank you so much Sensei,this is a treasure for me.Richard D'CRUZ,Malaysia.
Thanks SO MUCH for showing the evening dojo segment. So useful to see how class goes in your (mom's) school. Your channel is the best.
Awesome video! I love Shotokan as well as other martial arts. Thank you for a great channel. When you interviewed Lyoto Machida, I was in awe. Watching your classes was an absolute pleasure. I'll remain in the "Osu Free Zone"
I love your Dojo and your classes! Reminds me of the way my Sensei use to have classes. I'm a brown belt in Shorin Ru but our training is minimal now due to no longer having a Dojo. Right now a few of us meet at a guys business who allows us to use at no cost. Still love training but need to find a new Dojo.
You make your own kombucha? Wicked!! :D
Also I liked your motto - if you’re not completely dead after a kata, you are not pushing your comfort zone.... I will apply this to poomse....
Amazing video Jesse, I love the karate lifestyle which I have been lucky to have been involved in from a young age just like you. Wishing your brother much luck for his up coming fight, its good to see traditional karate on show on a top class stage. TANG SOO
As always, your approach and philosophy are a source of motivation for me, especially when you mention that we shouldn't limit ourselves to one style. I have attained different kyu levels in 4 different styles of karate (no black yet!) and yellow in Judo, and I find that it all blends together: it complements each other to develop my own style. I really hope I can meet you someday, if you come back to Québec City (Karate Charlesbourg Rudy Duquet) or if I have the opportunity to visit beautiful Sweden again! Cheers!
Merci my friend! I appreciate your kind words. Hoping to visit Quebec again in the future! 👍
Again a great video! I really appreciate your way of looking at and understanding karate. Your mountain metaphor is very clear and brings out one of the main aspects I‘ve come to love about karate in the last years: we‘re all just a bunch of people trying to find a path, a way. And we are all trying to stay on it. Some of us will go a long way and not give up while some others will quit walking and leave the path along the way. It‘s never about reaching a certain point - like a grading test for example. It‘s actually about walking up this beautiful way. And walking together helping each other is always easier and a lot more fun!! Thank you for sharing with us once again your ‚behind the scenes‘ and for your passion motivating and educating karatekas around the world!! Arigatou gozaimasu!!
I recently found your channel and I am so impressed with your motivation. I appreciate all that you are sharing. Thank You from Las Vegas, Nevada.
Thank you jesse and to your family for keeping alive karate's soul
Jesse your kata.....is magic. Congratulations OSS
Great video! Smashing personality, very watchable and an excellent teacher! Only found this channel recently, but probably the most enjoyable channel I subscribe to. Obviously helps having very well made and edited videos, but Jesse anchors everything with charisma, charm and humour.
Outstanding!
What an amazing Family and motivation you had since you were a kid, God Bless keep going my friend! You are giving so much to the society!
This is so inspiring. It is paramount that everyone understand that we could all be doing what sensei Jesse is doing if we totally and fully commit to it and we know that nothing comes cheap in terms of commitment and that if you really really want it you have got to sweat for it and what could be better than working your butt off by achieving your dream at the same time. What could be better than fighting day in and day out to make it happen , learning a different lesson every day. Your passion can be karate or it can be something else it doesn't matter, it could even be another martial art or sport or whatever but we all have the potential to live an awesome life by doing what we love, working hard and growing EVERY SINGLE DAY. Sensei Jesse you are such a nice guy and a source of inspiration especially for people like me who have decided to pursue martial arts as a way of life , I will always be ever so grateful to you for the great work you put out and I look forward to working with you when I will finally be running my own dojo because I want my students to meet and learn from one of the most inspiring men that fed my passion and gave me drive. I look forward to attending another one of your seminars. I bow deeply to you sir and I send you many good vibes so that you may continue to do what you are doing and be happy . Oss
Thanks for your kind words! Means a lot 🙏 Deep bow! ☺️
You are welcome Sensei Jesse. Have a good day

heck of a video jesse keep it coming youre inspiring us each and every day!
Thank you for these longer videos Jesse ❤️
Awesome video Sensei Jesse! Love the series. Keep up he good work.
Jesse I think its awsome that you your brother and your mom all train together. I wish my family did that.
One of my fav videos 👌 Especially Kata, that strength and speed 😲💪👌🥋 and what you say after Kata 👌
Very cool. Loving the vlogs and great to see more kobudo training your school is awesome!
Glad I'm not alone in the feeling of the gi being outdated. Love the vid!
It's a fun and honourable experience to see a the students learning weapons too from you. Cuz in our dojo we haven't been taught. Good to see. OSU#respectsensi😎😎
Bruderrrr after the warm up that was Amazing those Moves and skill set... my eyes were like 👀👀 impressive 💯
And i love it that you react to the Comments after a 4 year Vid and that os amazing to cuz most of the "content Creators" dont do that
Excellent. This was very enjoyable. Thank you! Cheers from Indiana, USA.
Your so inspiring to me that I started martial arts thank you so much !
The way u create ur videos is awesome and I really like ur content which is very informative
🙇🏻🥋🥋
I loved hearing a bit of Swedish (Jag pluggar svenska :D). I'm in para taekwondo, I always find something interesting and learn something new in your videos. Thank you! :)
Awesome Jesse san. These behind the scenes vlogs are amazing. I eat that for breakfast too sometimes. Your take on life and aspects of training are so similar to my own. Keep up the most awesome work my friend. I like the part at the end with mum walking in. 'OH.............' Hahahaa fabulous.
Nice video. I really enjoyed the parts where you were teaching class. Most of us realize that you're multilingual, but it's neat to hear you speak a language other than English.
The best part, though, was your victory over the snack jar at 17:15. :)
On a related topic to what you were discussing at that time, I recall hearing that recently a group of Okinawan sensei were discussing the meaning of the word "karate" and that the "empty" did not actually refer to the hand, but the state of mind. That is, "karate" doesn't just refer to a hand without a weapon in it, but also to a hand that acts without thought, i.e. with an empty mind. And that reminds me of your article (or was it a video?) on Shoshin/Mushin/Zanshin. :)
Love your day in the life vids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was an awesome video! 🤩 Plus kudos to the camera guy/girl👍🏽
Another great video. All the best 👌🥋
Please do more behind-the-scenes!!!!!Love the way you did that kata!
That's a perfect day in my eyes ... great video
I wished you tube existed back in the day. You remind me . Great video- Detroit, MI
wow that looks like quality training. it certainly is a lifelong lifestyle. respect
I just love to listen to you in Swedish. I’ve only learned a little of it a couple of years ago (no use in Russia, at all) but the phonetics are so great... feel nostalgic! 😌
Great weapons training. Normally( not all but many) Karate schools do alot of the weapons kata without explaining or performing the applications. I was impressed by the belt /whip sparring. Maybe for a future episode you can do a video about fashion tips outside of the dojo. Many sport athletes and martial artists are not so fashion conscious. Also good luck to your brother. Again not the usual traditional Karate dojo. Your family and the Machidas seem to be pushing the envelope.
Never let your style limit your karate! I like this!
Amazing. Loved every minute of this!
Thank you!
I am very very triple very impressed by your training
Oss Sensei. Hi from Türkiye (Turkey). We learn diffrent things about Karate and we enjoy that. Thank u🙏🙃
Loved watching this, thanks for the fab video lovely x
We need more like this videos
Sensei I can't wait to get to the level you are, to train even more harder than what I do so I can exceed my limits as a karateka the morning training was amazing motivation
Watching Jesse perform Kata without a Gi was extremely impressive and humbling.
Great video sensei! And as allways, it made mi wanna train so hard!
Love this! my favorite part was the snack lid fail while your simultaneously explaining Empty hand vs Chinese Hand. lol
Loved It sensei!💙
Inspiring Kata, and your Mum with her weapons, oh my gosh she's my new Idol.
U really make kata come to life I love watching maybe some time u could teach us a simple kata
I love your vídeos greetings from Bolivia.
I liked very much your video. Specially the kata.
amazing demo sensei
You deserve way more subscribers bro! Millions man! 😎
Love the t-shirt looks dope 🥊
I want more!
Great video man.... really I appreciated!!! Oss
yooo jesse-san amazing video we would like to see more of the training in your dojo also you always say i practice all different style but i never saw you doing a shotokan kata , i would love seeing you do kanku dai for example i would learn so much of it :))
I love your videos I take taekwondo but I like to watch traditional kata
Great view on the life of a Karate Nerd!! I like your philosophy on life in Karate, so true! I also enjoyed the leg conditioning and kick training. I also like your Bunkai for Gekisai we have a different version of it but they all work! Lastly, good luck for Spain and watch out for the South African Gushukan team, they are going to take lots of medals!! ;)
Bad ass kata and candy cane socks....luv it! Always enjoy your videos.
Thanks! Got them from Santa Claus 😜
