I Trained Like A SAMURAI For A DAY

- Today I'm training like a samurai warrior from Japan! 🇯🇵
I visited a samurai museum and learned how to wield weapons like katana and spear. Through my training, I discovered the incredible martial arts history, culture and discipline that the samurai possessed.
I also tried on real samurai armor to experience how it works in combat. Turns out, my Karate skills are basically useless on the battlefield!
Big thanks to Dr. Kacem Zoughari, William ”The Swedish Ninja” Ustav for filming and Samurai Museum Berlin for this amazing experience.

Should I pay for the helmet? 😅💸
Probably yes as a nice gesture
At second thoughts, only a little portion of it.
Absolutely not.
You would have to sell all your belts and more for it 😂
And on a side note, I am surprised in the video you had not called yourself "Samurai Kid Jesse" at a point.
Like a true samurai you'll do seppuku to pay for your crime
You'll be bankrupt probably
No, you should have one custom made to match your spirit.
I could have listened to him for an hour showing you battle theory and techniques. He was so engaged and happy to talk about things.
You and me both Andrew!!
@@KARATEbyJesse you need to count me in too!!
First of all, this is one of the best museums in the world! Second of all, as a martial artist and history + museology student seeing this brings tears to my eyes of joy❤
Glad to hear Rasmus!! Thank you 😄
Rasmus Poulsen. I second that emotion!!💪🏾
Germany has some of the coolest stuff......
@@lusolad Germany IS the coolest stuff!
👊🏼
It should be mentioned here that some people have the misconception of japanese armour leaving gaps under the armpits etc, however these areas would often be reinforced with either mail or textile with sewn-in plates called kikko. The reason these aren't always apparent is because they're often covered by fancy textile, unlike in european fashion where the mail covering the gaps is left bare. However written japanese accounts make it clear that defences like this were widely utilised by people who could afford them, at least in the later eras of the samurai. Perhaps not as much in the 12-14th centuries.
Thanks for the info! 👍
@@KARATEbyJesse for some more reading there's a cool blog by the name of 'Gunbai Military History' which is one of the best easily accessible english sources on japanese arms and armour I know of.
dude, that was interesting. thanks
Yep! There are lots of supplemental pieces of samurai armor and I didn't see any of them worn here. I'm doing a series on them right now and have posted 5 of the 7 videos so far. Excellent video Jesse, looks like you both had a wonderful time.
It should also be mentioned that there's a lot of auxiliary armors for when it comes to protecting areas such as that. If I remember, there's also another option that involved protecting the pits with either a plate or additional set of lames.
Dr. Zoughari is my old Sensei’s Sensei 🙏🏽 I was fortunate enough to train under him for a day when he came to visit our dojo. Wise beyond words
Incredible man 💪
lucky dude
I love that guy, I could listen to him all day👍
I had the same honour when I was practicing ninjutsu i think it was like 4 years ago in italy what a coincidence
That dude who was walking you around and educating you on the artifacts is so cool!
And no doubt in my mind that he is also a legit martial artist.
You’re totally right!
It’s a lot easier to understand the movement of traditional martial arts when you include a suit and era weapons. The kata, stances and transitions make a lot more sense now after watching this
WHEN I go to Berlin I'll have to check this museum. Also, I think being a Martial Arts historian has to be one of the coolest jobs for a Martial Artist. I don't know who was having more fun Jesse or the other guy!
For the sword movements, it depends very much on the school. Katroi Shinto, for example, does use larger strokes but doesn't use any hacking strikes as implied by utilizing the weight of the armor. Strikes should be elliptical in their movement, effecting a slicing movement at the mono uchi, thereby lessening potential damage to the blade. As stated, the sword was the weapon of last resort. Chipping the blade by striking armor weakens it and breakage becomes highly likely. Once your blade breaks, you only have a wakazashi left, and likely not much longer to live.
This was awesome! I've had the pleasure of training with Kacem-sensei when I went to Japan, it's incredible and terrifying how warfare was conducted in those days.
Totally agree!!
Samurai armor is probably the coolest-looking battle armor ever conceived.
Dr. Zoughari is such an exceptional blend of martial arts skill and history knowledge. I guess if I would have seen one of these videos with him earlier in my life I would set my life goals in a completely different direction😄
That was awesome and I wish this episode was longer. Hope to see more videos with traditional battle field weapons and armor. I didn't know there was a samurai museum in Berlin. I have to plan a trip there soon. Thanks 😊
You will LOVE IT!
My sensei has always told me that sword has connections to Karate. Many techniques you find are the movements of sword.
It’s all connected! 🥋
Yes, not just the sword. All traditional weapons. The idea is, repeated movements will become reflex actions. When your weapon is knocked away, you can use the same movements with your hands as blades/grapples. It’s quite ingenious. This is why kata is tremendously important, and in-grained in training ranks (colored belts before black belt). It’s said that those belts are not even ranks. It’s conditioning and testing students to see whether they are worthy of becoming karateka. At some point, your sensei will test you by sending attacks at you whilst you are distracted, like standing around talking to someone. If you throw blocks without pausing or stopping while talking, then it shows that you have practiced your kata sufficiently enough that the blocks have become reflex actions. Once, you become black belt, the real learning begins. They will teach you that each movement in kata has 2 or 3 hidden movements. Even the basic zenkutsu dachi has offensive, shurite, aspects. A block is not just a block, it’s also a strike. Bringing the fist back to the waist is not just for ki, it has a hidden aspect of grabbing your enemy and pulling them towards you and into your punch. This is the way.
I think that exists in most martial arts, Chinese Wing Chun for example I've seen some Sifu's explain how many of the movements are supposed to be done with Butterfly Knives
Thanks for this trip back in time, Jesse. Very interesting how different/ practical / functional the different techniques/approaches were!! Great stuff!!
Glad you enjoyed it Tim!!
This kind of historical research makes us better understand our martial art and how it evolved. For example, I've done Wado Ryu Karate, a style influenced by swordsmanship and with this video, I learned the reason behind certain particularities of the style. Thank you!
Yes indeed! I see many Wadoryu connections too
now that is a man who really loves his job. would love to visit this museum the next time I go Berlin. I had no idea there's a Samurai museum in Germany!
You should!
Wow I think we need to see more from that adventure!!! Is there a part 2 coming?
Great to see someone so enthusiastic about their job and show so much knowledge and passion.
This reminded me a lot of a great Aikidoka Nishio Sensei, who always said that with or without a weapon the technique should be the same. Easy to see some examples of this here with the spear techniques and sword techniques; and it clearly highlights why Karate (Okinawan) is not a Budo art, but could be adopted as one when blended with JuJitsu (Wado-Ryu and Shindo jinen-ryu) or using the budo concept of Maai and Ma-ai, but how essentially they are arts for very different purposes.
Anyway, great video, more please 🙏
Well said!
Why should the technique be the same, if not having a weapon changes everything.
@@guyfawkes5012 I think Nishio Sensei explains it far better than I could, I have the video offline where he goes into great depth but he also demonstrates it here: czcams.com/video/aMP0oj9Qj-s/video.html hopefully useful.
That man is so passionate about his career path. 👏 it's an infections joy seeing him explain!
It is really cool to see how the way you move when wearring an armor changes. I remember my master telling me to never cross legs when moving, (used to train muay thai) because it is really easy for the opponent to drop me. But when the armor is in play, it all changes, because you have to be careful to not expose any unprotected parts. Really awesome to see that!
Made by a renowned swordsmith, this sword has been tested on cadavers aged between 30 and 50.
The cut is slightly above both nipples.
Cut in half with one swing.
After 10 cuts, you can get 4 ranks in the number of successful cuts.
A sword that succeeded in cutting 3 to 4 people in half "wazamono"
"yokiwazamono" is a sword that successfully cuts 5 to 7 people in half.
"owazamono" the sword that succeeded in cutting 7 to 8 people in half
"saijoowazamono" the sword that succeeded in cutting 8 to 9 people in half
Thanks to you, I have resumed Karate for 1 year! You gave me back the stimulus of martial arts and now I can't do without them
Molto bene!!
@@KARATEbyJesse ❤️💪🇮🇹🥋
Ok, that was a great video. It was great to see how much form has to change from Karate when introducing the armour. I hope one day to be blessed enough to have a similar experience myself - so I can feel it. Thanks, Jesse
We all love Dr. Kacem Zoughari! Greetings to you guys, from a Bujinkan shodan. OSSU!
That was really cool! He was well informed in the what’s but also the how’s, that’s really neat! Glad you got to have that experience and that you shared it with us ^_^
Thanks for watching!
This is fantastic, Jesse-san! Getting to train with real vintage samurai armor -- even martial artists who practice samurai arts don't get to do that! Though, it looked like your nodachi and the wakizashi were modern weapons -- I don't think they would have let you guys bang vintage swords against the armor...
Amazing how hand to hand combat has to be adapted to accommodate the armor too. Very cool episode!
I really appreciate that!! They told me nothing was a replica 😳
More ancient than vintage.
@@jeffblackwell5493 How ancient?
Whenever you upload a new video, I instantly watch it and it almost always makes my day. Thank you.
I've never been to Berlin, but I will definitely visit this museum if I ever have a chance. So cool!
You should Stephen!
Hey Jesse, I practiced Okinawa Goju-ryu Karate back when I was Schooling, Worked my way to the blackbelt. After that, I focused more on strength training and gave a long brake from my karate. Last year started Kenjitsu at the age of 26. I'm still learning and this video helped me a lot to understand the art more. very Thankful! high-quality content!
Wonderful!!
Thank you Kasem. Excellent explanation about the source of some of the Bujinkan schools. Well done! Respect! 🙇♂👍
So nice of you Shai
This kind of movement and fighting in armor is a big part of what Bujinkan is really teaching.
This was great - really enjoyed it. Engaging, historical, educational... and also shows a lot of the actual applications that I've seen from traditional japanese martial arts that *can* look a bit off without armor.
I shared this with Shogo. I REALLY hope you can get together with him and Seki Sensei for a video or two. That would be earth shattering.
Probably your best video!
Kacem knows!
Kacem is amazing!!
Thta so awesome! I never ever knew these stuff about samurais, Wish this episode would go longer thanks for the video im looking foward to watching the next one : )
More to come!
Wow what an experience you've had and Dr Kacem Zoughari is super passionate. It was so interesting thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it JF!
Awesome and educational! 🔥
Thank you Rokas! 🙏 Cheers! 😁
Hi Rokas, i would like to mention that Mr. Zoughari is a student of Masaaki Hatsumi Soke. But he doesn´t actually like the Bujinkan. Cheers and iam waiting for your survival videos! :)
The method he's showing you at 6:00 basically turns your body into a bow, as opposed to the whiplike motion of karate. I learned this on accident when I was training a few hours after hurting my achelese tendon.
Because the armour restricts your movement alot, at the meantime you can't afford to do large movements like high kicks and swing kicks because you will expose the gaps to the enemy.
@@ReviveHF it's actually really good for heavy backpacks and in my case a bad knee. Nothing structurally wrong. Just less cartilage.
But that's not the only reason why. The Japanese used to walk differently. Nanba is what it's called. It's very useful when hiking. It's a very efficient method of walking and even running. Nit the fastest, but it definitely works. This method of combat uses the same principles.
As to restrictive movements... eh you can climb a tree pretty well. At least for most armor of the Sengoku Jidai
That was amazing to watch the history + technique. Such an amazing individual!!
by far the coolest video
thanks Neon!
That was cool. Some familiar concepts there for myself but also some interesting considerations for the armour. We don't get to practice this way in Kendo shiai but our Kata do reflect a lot of this even though its not specifically setup to account for armour. It's particularly evident in our three kodachi Kata where you face an opponent with the tachi, so you have to have additional defensive considerations whilst taking the sen or initiative to ensure your own success against the longer weapon.
Interesting!!
@@KARATEbyJesse If you're ever visiting Northern Ireland and you fancy trying out Kendo, the door is open. We only have ten Kata and the full contact practice but I think you'd really love it. Particularly the stories behind the Kata themselves and how Kendo came to be. It's a small, humble Dojo and I'm a small humble CZcamsr but we'd certainly be honoured by your presence if you were ever in town. Also, I've seen how you eat Kata for breakfast, so it probably wouldn't take long 😂. I'd be very interested to see how you get on in the armour though being such a quick learner. Anyway, I've been looking for a way to bring Kendo into the general martial arts conversation online as we have a habit of mostly just staying in our lane. I follow yourself, Icy Mike, Ramsey Dewey, Rokas and a few others. I feel Kendo has a lot to contribute even though on the surface it wouldn't appear to be particularly practical in this day and age. A well, a Swordsman can dream I suppose. Anyway, door's open like I said. Otherwise keep up the amazing work you do. I never miss a video you put out.
Another amazing video!! wow!!, other world is the "samurai world", other movements, concepts and point of view about how samurais fight, and now may be the invitation to know about how karate help "common people" to defend against samurais and their weapons. Thanks a lot Jesse for this amazing video.
My absolute pleasure!!
At many moments I thought you or him might get an accidental cut but you are pros and probably the weapons were blunted.
They were sharp!! 😳
So cool hes applying the techniques you see in jujutsu katas but very different at the same time cuz of his understanding of application in real armour and battlefield
Kacem is a practioner of Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu aka Ninjutsu under Izhizuka sensei, very skilled and knowledgeable
He's a living encyclopaedia!
@@ShadowrulzalwaysJujutsu is synonymous with Taijutsu.
Awesome Samurai video Jesse! Hope you do a video about ninjutsu next!
That's the plan!
Could stand 3 or 4 more videos of this guy.
Awesome, and the museum guy is really knowing his stuff and makes it fun at the same time.
I WANT MORE OF THISSSS I LOVE ITTT
You got it!!
@@KARATEbyJesse THE GOAAATT!!!
Amazing experience
I agree!
Utterly mesmerizing. Samurai gear was always one of my favorite type of gear/armor/weapons
Awesome video Jesse! I have always been fascinated with the Samurai, and this video was right up my alley.
Glad to hear it William!
Dude, you MUST take a training session with Zoughari in his Dojo! By the way, I love this video, tks for uploading it!
That would be cool Anderson!
Jesse Sensei😊
If you would like to extend your knowledge about japanese sword and karate, you should meet with Ushiro Kenji Sensei. His karate is strongly connected with katana technigues. It could be very interesting episode. He also will be conducting seminar in Europe in June. Greetings.
That would be cool!
I saw that sneaky little reverse swastika on the helmet. That's pretty cheeky to have in Berlin haha. Jokes aside this looks like a really great museum and your host obviously has a great passion for his job. Great video, once again, and I swear I'm not a tiny bit jealous.
Love this video guys!!!!! You both were amazing. What a great blessing to do this
Thanks so much!!
AAAWWWWEESSOMMMEEE!!! Thank you so much Jesse, Kacem and William!!
You meet with the real Indiana Jones of the Ninjutsu ;) hahaha
Cant wait for part 2!!
@@basilistsakalos9643 😁😁
Our pleasure! 🙏
Very nice video Sir 👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So nice of you
This such a good and more well informed as well as practical look at samurai history. Genuinely showing why weapon play in armor is fascinating
So glad to hear!
Kacem is a frecking legend!
Amazing. For some time I practiced Bujinkan Budō Taijutsu, and this video makes me understand many of the techniques this martial art (or arts as they are 9 separate schools in one). Very different than modern martial arts such as ITF Taekwondo. It also explains many of the Judo techniques (originated on -japanese- Jujitsu). Thank you for such a nice video and the amazing channel.
Glad it was helpful!
I also trained kenjitsu this week, made me see my Karate and Kobudo in another light. Especially the rule of only using the end 3rd of the sword and only use the right hand as lead hand. That's why karate is close quarter combat and ambidextrous
Awesome!
I hold the sword with my left hand
Most people are right handed
@@robertmarley8852 That is the samurai weakness, the were only allowed to work with the right hand leading. It was seen as a disgrace or dishonorable to switch hands. If you switched hands as a samurai, you were beaten by the sensei.
@@WianJooste Not entirely true. While it's true Japan was a right hand dominant culture as a matter of course, in Yagyu Shinkage Ryu (both the Edo and Owari branches) we have techniques where the left hand is leading. These are rarities granted, but they're there.
In fact in most cases left handed people have an advantage in sword work. When swinging a sword, the right hand "steers" while the left hand generates power. Right handed people kinda tend to try to do both with their right hand & it takes practice to learn to divide up the hands' responsibilities. Meanwhile lefties are already used to using their left hand so they usually have an easier time.
That said, apart from manga or movies ye'd never find a samurai with his swords on his right hip drawing them left handed. The social conventions of the time wouldn't allow it and he'd be banging saya with everyone he walked around.
Kobudo or Kobujutsu, can be used to describe the martial ryuha of the samurai. Although we know that Okinawan Karate has the weapons art also called Kobudo.
I love the dude doing the explanation
So cool! Doing karate like the samurai did 1000 years ago! Love to see it.
Cool video
I appreciate that 👍
I have a nice idea - go to Russia and try SAMBO🦍
Um…this video was bloody amazing. Educational, with so many beautiful and expensive historical weapons and armour. Thank you for sharing it!
I appreciate that so much!!
Incroyable vidéo !! J'ai l'impression que Dr Zoughari est français ( l'accent peut être) ça fait plaisir à entendre et voir !!
Zhougari does not know what he is talking about and needs to shut up and train. Same goes for Jesse.
But if I train too much, I might accidentally become a superhero! 💪Then I won’t be able to shut up about my superpowers 😜
Love this guys ninpo and jujitsu samurai stuff as a genbukan guy Makes me happy to see ninjustu and jujitsu stuff shown by a guy who knows ninpo well. Good stuffs!
Glad you enjoy it!
you can see where ninja and samurai are connected in just some of the display moves he is showing. not only this is really cool to watch but this guy is cool and i love his energy you can tell he loves what he does and its beautiful because it shows
As far as I know according to modern historical research Ninja or Shinobi were in fact sometimes samurai, shinobi were basically just spies or reconnaissance however sometimes they could carry out assassinations, theft or arson as well.... A good example of a samurai who was also a ninja is Hattori Hanzo, he came from a samurai class but used his military tactics more for espionage or covert operations.... Samurai, although they were warriors, not every warrior in a Japanese fuedal army was a samurai, and there were some samurai that didn't even engage in any form of combat, it was really more of a class/clan thing much like the nobles or aristocrats in Europe, powerful families or clans that owned land and pledged their allegiance to the Shogun much like how nobles pledged their allegiance to a king.... So a samurai could very well be a ninja as well depending on what orders their Daimyo or Warlord would give them during war.... But most of the time ninja were just hired mercenaries who were skilled in espionage or covert operations, there's even cases of ninja just being regular peasants, farmers or prostitutes... So long as a Daimyo or Samurai clan needed anything done covertly be it assassination, arson, theft or just simple Intel gathering then they'd hire a shinobi or ninja and sometimes even a lowly peasant could be right for the job because no one would really suspect a peasant.
There’s nothing like watching latest KarateNerd’s video and hitting dojo at friday🥋
Another great video Jesse! Thanks to you I can learn a new thing every singe day! You inspired me to go back into Martial arts and all its beauty again. 🙏
Glad to hear it!
sjele-kunst som er jordet i realisme er virkelig en vei til harmoni med sin egen natur og praktisk virke i hverdagen. dette var gode taisabaki, flow og direkte applikasjoner som ikke har blitt pyntet på med tiden. samuraidrakten krever direkte teknikker, økonomisering og direkte strategi. nydelig å se på. du er jammen god på å finne frem til gode delinger jesse, du er også god til å smelte inn i en dialog med mange sterke karakterer. kose deg videre med alle erfaringer og måtte din vei alkymisere den perfekte karakter. mvh emanuel
That was amazing! Dr Zoughari has a lot of interesting knowledge.
Just another banger from start to finish! The thing I love the most is how absolutely amazing you are peace and love to you ❤
You’re too kind Massoma!! 🙏
Love this guy's videos. Wish I could take a seminar under him.
Very cool! What a great collection. Its a once in a lifetime thing to get to wear a real historical set like that.
The Spirit that wore that is smiling! For its purpose was once again engaged! What an Amazing privilege to have such a Gentleman offer you his prized possession to showcase to the World. Greatly appreciate your kindness. Thank You!
You are so kind Donald!
Thanks to Dr.Zoughari for sharing this valuable information and demonstrating the techniques. ı never thought they would fight like this. Also, thanks to his museum to share amours. ı would also watch this hours.Maybe you guys should do a similar episodes.
Karate and the art of the samurai, an interesting and deadly mix which is sure to surprise and dominate most opponents 👏
Thanks for the video. I already have the museum on my list. But now it is on the top. Also the guy has some serious knowledge about martial arts.
For sure! Have fun Gordon
Those Armor... Legendary ❤
Museum bloke is like a kid with his toy, making it up on the go and feeling cool
I watched abt how the yoroi armor can be used to practise functional kenjutsu in katori shinto ryu vdo. Excellent sword art, and very practical indeed. This vdo did explain bit more. Especially abt spear movement. Similar with xing yi kungfu, all movements are like spear moves.
How could I not know we have such a museum in Berlin?!
Hope you gave Hans Joachim Möller a visit while you were there, man's a legend and still practicing in his age, teaches several days per week.
The idea that samurai fighting skills were primarily tailored for combat among themselves, while potentially less effective against other tactics like those employed by the Mongols, has some historical validity. During the Mongol invasions of Japan in the 13th century, samurai struggled against the Mongol cavalry and tactics which were quite different from their traditional foes. The Mongols used ranged weapons, horse archery, and a more fluid battlefield strategy that posed unique challenges for the samurai.
One example of this can be found in the failed Mongol invasions of Japan in 1274 and 1281. In both cases, the Mongols utilized naval power and missile weaponry effectively against the samurai, who were more accustomed to land-based combat and melee weapons. The Mongol invasions highlighted the limitations of the samurai's traditional combat methods when facing a different style of warfare.
In summary, while samurai fighting skills were highly effective in the context of feudal Japan, they faced difficulties when dealing with foreign tactics like those employed by the Mongols. This historical context adds depth to our understanding of the samurai's combat capabilities and underscores the importance of adaptability in warfare.
In WW2 Japanese soldiers despite their extensive training in bayonets, performed poorly vs American GIs, as the American Army archives note.
This is awesome!!!
Thank you so much for sharing!
You are so welcome!
So awesome thanks for sharing this video. Man, I'm so jealous! What an awesome experience
Glad you enjoyed it!
What an experience! Wow, thank you for sharing! 💜
It was! Thanks Kaylee
Jesse you should try bajiquan!
great museum. I think it's so important to understand the relationship between japanese martial arts and weapons, especially in more traditional arts like aikido.
Your dedication, skill, courage, lack of ego ,tact , and ability to be respectful of other cultures and ways is a lesson to us all , and given you opportunities lesser men dream of . Respect.
You’re very kind 🙏
This was fantastic!! Discovery/Nat Geo documentary information. Keep up the amazing work.
Thank you! Will do Chris
This is to short, please more long duration for this, i am from Indonesia, i really enjoy your video
This took me back to the old Richard Chamberlain series "Shogun".
Sensei Zoughari is a world expert. You are lucky to have him teach you
I feel your new friend is not to be messed with.
Amazing content as always 👍🏻
True! Thanks for chiming in Stuart
Wow! This is eye opening! Thank you for sharing with us this awesome content 🤩
Glad you enjoyed it Luna!
If you're interested in sword combat, check out Japan circa 1853. This era is a little older than the anime "SAMURAI X". During this period, there were no large-scale battles, only small-scale battles in which "Japanese swords" were mainly used.
