I practiced Kyokushin for two months and it was a great experience. My vision of Karate-Do now is wider. Congratulations, excellent video.
I'm amazed by how quickly you pick up new things, I wish I'd learn new stuff so quickly 😂
When you’ve been learning since you could walk, it becomes habitual 😄
A good old uechi ryu seisan, with love from algeria , osu
That’s right! 😄👍
I went to a Judo seminar, seeing some kihon forms from the throws i tried to create a kata. But according to the judo sensei find your posture, find your weapon. Like how his was his short height made his opponents bend over to grapple with him which destroys their balance. That is how styles are created, find your posture, find your weapon and find your own style.
Hi jesse, I started karate at 33 (after many years of body building, boxing and some krav maga). Main reason I took it up was for my son who 5 at the time needed an outlet for his ADHD. I earned my black belt at 40 and will hopefully be going for first Dan next year. The only local club we have near where we live was GKR karate, which allowed myself and my son (and later my daughter) to train together.
My son and I have always been interested in other styles and are constantly learning. I find at times when we try to learn other styles we find the dojos look down on us because we earned our belts through GKR karate. They say things like "oh, you go to a mcdojo", which is really hurtful to my kids. Even when we spar with them they admit we are on their level but it seems they don't want us in their club and take an instant dislike to us. My kids and I are very humble and respectful people, we don't advertise our style or belts to anyone in the dojos (in fact we don't even wear gi's when we visit, we go in as newbies). It saddens me that dojos operate this way.
Any advice you can give an old dog on this? I can get over this easy enough, but my son is starting feel really discouraged.
If that’s the attitude you’re greeted with, they don’t deserve your presence. The first thing you learn in Karate is respect. Respect is deserved, not demanded. Find open minded people to train with, and keep the ”beginner’s mind”. If that doesn’t help, humanity is doomed. :-)
Jesse Enkamp thanks for your reply Jesse, I appreciate it mate. My son's a big fan, now so am I.
Best of luck with the olympics.
If this was the first time you performed that while following another, you executed it extremely well :D
Old keys don’t open new doors~BOOM 🔥💥
Awesome advice, there is always something worth learning in every karate style :) keep it up with this kind of videos sensei.
Fantastic video! One of my favorite channels to watch! I've always felt that by learning different styles it enhances the styles you previously trained under and helps you utilize and evolve the tools you already have, discard techniques that are less useful, and add new techniques that appeal to you. You are a great role model for young martial artists because of your ability to adapt and learn other systems. There should always be an enthusiasm to learn more.
Thanks, another great video. I remember in the 70's and 80's there was much opposition about working with other martial arts, but it has been one of the things to train with other styles I feel helped me grow through the 90's to now. I instill these thoughts to my own students while they are training. I tell them to keep your base style as a foundation(root), build on that foundation and continue to make yourself the best you can be by learning something new everyday when possible. In this information age, there is no reason that any martial arts cannot grow as we continue towards making our selves and our spirit lead to the perfection of mind and body.
Very good thought you bring to us, thank you jesse sensei!!!
This was such a great video! I love the concept of trying to learn new styles to better understand your own. Your insights are always very informative! Ossu!
I agree it's like following in the footsteps of the pioneers of Karate, who tried, trained and then crafted the (classical) styles we know best today. Bravo Bravo 👏
Very accurate and very inspiring. Just so happen to remember that day... :) “Sometimes you have to climb the mountain next to yours to see your own better.” Perfect.
Fantastic, thank you. As a 4th Dan in Chang Hun TaeKwonDo who took a year of Krav Maga and didn't like the environment of the studio, I'm starting Shorin Ryu Karate and needed this encouragement and explanation to help clear my own thoughts and confusion. So thank you for that.
Outside my Karate dojo, during my spare time, I'm fortunate enough to learn other style from a friend of mine from time to time and for that, It enhances my learning process and to better myself everyday. Excellent video Jesse san.
Never seen u doing anything on Uechi Ryu before, it makes me so happy to see you practicing my beloved style, hai! Love from Brazil🇧🇷❤
I loved your video, your message is such an inspiration!
Thanks!! Keep training and having fun!
I totally agree with you. Each style has its own secrets. Thank you for all your knowledge sensei. Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
I keep admiring you a lot sensei, your words always show me something. I get so excited everytime i see how you move (someday i will.....)😧💞👊
Que buen video, me encanta que el vídeo este subtítulado!!!
It helps me alot great video sensei Jesse ossu
I love the way you just pick up things so naturally Jesse San, great video again . Osu
Thanks Dave-san! As a lifelong learner, it’s a habit to pick things up :) Learning never stops!
I admire you Jesse, I have been following you for years and I love your reflections, you put words to what I am not able to describe, you are a great philosopher, a great influence. I'm watching this video again and it makes a lot of sense to me, now more than before since I have practiced kyokushin for about 20 years and now after years of thinking about what to do with my karate that I felt stagnant, thinking about it, afraid of change , fear of disappointing, of not being loyal to my sensei by leaving the dojo where I learned and grew in karate... Finally five months ago I decided to open my mind and change my style, now I am learning shotokan and this has given me a great a blow of humility, to lower the ego, to have that beginner's mind again, where at first it is frustrating but with the hope of starting again, as you said, no style is better than another, karate is that great cake of carrot where one has only tried one piece and thinks theirs is better but has not tried the rest, hahahaha. Really, this change that I decided to make has been thanks to you, your reflections that I like so much, your blog and your videos... they have helped me do what I really want, now I feel free, with a karategi without emblems no longer I want to pay style federations... I don't need titles on a wall, I just want to continue learning and over the years I will surely do uechi ryu. You have taught me that if I didn't make my own way, the one I was really letting down was me. Thank you Jesse Sensei.
That was very inspirational
Excellent Jesse San!! Thank you very much!. Regards from México. Oss!!
Loved this video, so true.
This is a concept that I've recently started to think about. I'm a Kempo practioner but I've started reading the words from Funakoshi's book and other older martial artists. It's really made me interested in original Okinawan Karate, and how I might go about incorporating into my practice.
Very insightful video, great to see the precision of your moves. More of these spiritual insights!
This is beautiful. Thank you.
Osu! Good stuff Jesse -san! I'm proud to say that after over 34 years...thanks in part to you , I've embarked on a new journey into Shotokan Karate. I proudly attained my 9th kyu last month and at the age of 50 something, I'm feeling like a kid again..at least on the inside. Thanks so much for your wisdom and humility. Keep it coming....and come visit South Florida soon!
Osu!
So crazy to see Jesse in my hometown of Peabody MA with Chip Quimby practicing Uechi Ryu Seisan. Our family's (me and 2 kids) martial arts journey just started a couple years ago studying this style. Your words offer much insight and inspiration. Thank you.
I love the way the Uechi-ryu does it
Wow...! Jesse-San, you are almost inhumanly precise with movements. Almost machine-like precision! 😦👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Another one of your videos that help me with my karate.Thank you.
Sweet! ☺️👍
Sensei Chip!!!!
Amazing
You are a great man.
Just a Karate Nerd! 🙏
Hehe :)
Inspiring! You´re right! And it seems that already feel easier to learn different styles, according to your journey. Here where I live, there aren't many styles (there are no shito-ryu, goju-ryu and wado-ryu dojos for example). So, even though I am a studente at a Shotokan Ryu Dojo, in addition to trying to get something from the few other styles in my town, I spend lots of time trying to learn from videos like yours ... Thank you for your work! It helps many people like me to keep going and opening their minds!
Excellent! In my art we don't necessarily practice kata of this form, but I know what you're talking about. I constantly expose myself to different arts to develop myself. It's important to know what other people are training in as well so that if its a popular technique you are aware of it and won't be as surprised if its used on you in a self defense situation.
Hi Jesse! Amazing t-shirt you are wearing. And quite an instructive video too!
Great! Cheers from Brazil! Okikukai Uechi-ryu!
Great video with a deep meaning.
Agree with this! I'm a brown belt in kyokushin karate but I also do like some of shotokan drill for speed, and I also do muay thai. For me cross training is needed! Great video!
I love this video
HOLY WOW THAT ARM SPEED!! -a Taekwondo student who is starting to find Karate fascinating. cheers!
You're so right😊🙏🏻💪🏼💪🏼
Nicely put Jesse!
Sensei Chip Quimby is featured in this video - very nice Seisan kata Jesse.
Thanks a lot. There are oldest histories about old masters that came to new dojos to start to learn more and continues improve themself. After that they start to teaching others too. Thanks to don't stop in yourself. One Aikido master told me, practice is like making a glass to collect precious water and when we bend every day to start practice, it is like a full glass of precious water that you leave to the roots and now glass is free to receive new one. OSU.
Very amazing! I practiced this Kata in a seminar with Shinjo Kiyohide Sensei in Caserta last November
Amazing video!
You did a great job! Bravo
Thank you so much!
This is so very true Sensai. However i am limited to my own style because of my age but as i get older i will branch off and learn some other styles and hopefully different martials arts as well. Cannot wait until i train with you Sensai and learn a new style!
I took Wing Chun for years then TKD and Muay Thai...I decided to train my daughter in Muay Thai and TKD. She wanted to get really good but only had me to compare herself to. So I enrolled both of us in a school together....even though I've been training for 10+years, we are both the same rank since we joined together. It has been super helpful for me to help me look at myself differently and unlearn some bad habits. So I can sympathize, even Yoda said you must unlearn what you have learned. Thanks Jesse, for th perspective, it really rings true with me.👊
Great video Jesse, very inspiring
Thanks! Found it in the archives and decided to put it to use 😃👊
Very nice
I have quite a lot of criticism for cross training. I even know a few people who cannot stand me for doing it. But I truly love all the different hearts I claim to be a perpetual student and never a master. I started my journey in martial arts in 1982 and still doing it today The learning aspect is the most fun.
Wise thoughts. Great video 👍🏽.
God I love this channel
Awsome
Nicely said Jesse.
Fine Gentleman you are training with there Jesse. Hope to get up north and train with him myself.
Bästa Jesse 💪🥋👌😎
I still love this channel!
Great, thanks! 🙏
Excellent Kata. I am a Shotokan praticioner and learned Seisan Kata by Uechi-Ryu when I was living in Brasília. By the way I live in another city of Brazil. Osu.
Wow this video was cool!
Wise words
Love it!Open mind and open heart❤❤❤❤(in Portugal i learn a lot from ballet and hip-hop dancers...try it)
Fantastic! Obrigado 👍
I love your vids this is much faster than taekwondo what I practice.
Shinwoo K that is true I practise wtf and sometimes I see things from Jesse that look almost like things I do ar our forms
I studied Okinawan karate and 3 kingdoms style "kung fu" and when you are black belt or sash, it will definitely enhance your orginal style! My sifu taught me the original way to do the " middle" block, it is actually two blocks in the same movement.This was back in the early 1980's, and I am still amazed.You will learn not only styles but how they are all related.
Reminds me of Ed Parker's philosophy. He was always adding to his brand of karate regardless of what style or region the addition came from.
Hello! I am a Kung Fu practitioner (Ngo Cho Kun style) and I could not fail to note the great similarity between the video's Kata principles and Ngo Cho Kun's Sam Chien. I believe that Ngo Cho Kun and Okinawan Karate are very connected because of the proximity of the regions where these martial arts were created. It's so interesting how history unites our martial arts!
And oh! I could not forget, congratulations for the videos, you are excellent!
That's why Bruce Lee was reluctant to give Jeet kune do a name. Because it really is all the same thing in the end. It's all a study of body movement. Body mechanics. Some martial arts are suited better for certain body types. There is no superior style, there is only what's right for the individual. There is only the right technique and the wrong technique. Everything else is relative.
Very inspiring video 👍
Great to hear!
Today I got scolded by my sensei for practicing ohan dai on his classes. This is kind of upsetting but I found this golden nugget on yt. Thanks for making my day better :).
wow! UECHI ryu
That's why I have learnt Gojo-ryu karate and Bashap martial art. While karate is a traditional martial art, Bashap is a mixed martial art that includes the techniques of kung fu, wing chun, wushu, bando etc. This is really cool to learn same things in a different way and with a different thoughts and ideology
...yeah, you'll note the similarities and differences between the goju/isshinryu/and other versions of Seisan with the uechi/pangainoon version(s)...kinda fun...really stretch and reach back to the Southern Chinese crane influences too...
When I get back from sea, I'd like to travel to Sweden and train at your dojo if possible. You're a great Sensei!
Thank you! Anything is possible. Safe sailing! 😄
Indeed....
Nice one sensei
Ossu!
I'm james mondragon from the philippines
I would love to learn Okinawan karate
Yes, yes, YESSSS!!!!!
I Have nothing more to say. 😁😁😁
There should've been a "wow" button!
I have been practicing four different styles of karate, which to some people seems weird because they see this as not choosing a path. I leave the door to each style open, though, so that I can train at different dojos anytime I have a chance and possibly learn something new.
Currently practice Tang soo do which is considered to be a Korean style of karate but to me is also a fascinating crossroad between Japanese and Korean martial arts.
Karate is a lifetime journey without borders to me.
Gostei, sensei. Faz videos em português tbm. Mas seu inglês é fácil de entender. Obrigado pelos vídeos são ótimos.
I am shotokan, but love to learning other (kata) style, like annan,paiku,pachu,chatanyara kushanku and others
I like the way you think..
the most importance from my perspective is knowing what we do.. everything is choices, I can not say I limiting my style or not limiting my style.. my style is never perfect.. so I can not say my style is better than another .. I just love it and die for it.. because I know what I'm aiming for, and the goal I want to reach.. that's the reason I'm learning my style deeper and deeper.. and keep saying to my self, and another.. I'm still learning and learning.. and still not enough..
so another style, is just knowledge for me.. and I dont think them deeply..
because whenever I feel courious about something(another style of martial art), I always come back to my base style..
so I call my style.. My Shorin style-ryu Karate.. :P :P lol
cause shorin-ryu I think it is the best and suited for me, after exploring another style..
Jesse i am HAPPY beacuse i will see you at europen championship in SERBIA
Yeeeah! 👊🌟👍
👌
I'm impress that you're learning the White Crane. That you're going back to it's origin. I had the same experience. After I learned Kenpo, I've decided to find it's history, and that's were I decided to learn Chinese Martial Arts.
i learning my Kata! Actually same in Karate! Old Kata and New Kata
Awesome ;)
Call it coincidence but I liked how you choose to use a "different style" in this video production, voice over footage rather than your usual vlogs, some good advice here.
Seisan Kata, Uechi Ryu❤
I think that is totally correct, have you tried “Zen Do Kai” before it is my main style I practise
Always putting yourself outside of your comfort zone and exploring possibilities is inspiring Jesse. In just a few hours I am excited to compete at the Northern California National Qualifier for the first time in kobudo, and I also get to be a judge for the first time at the same tournament. Big day with lots of new and exciting experiences! Have you ever judged or been a referee? I think I'm more nervous to be a good judge than actually competeing. Osu!
Awesome! Only kids tournaments myself :) Good luck 😄👍
What kata was that. It has a lot of different elements to it but I dont think I have ever seen it before?
Great 👍🏻
Thx! 👊
Hey i didnt notice the other guy until i looked close and realised that i watch his channels also didnt notice until i looked at the uechi ryu and saw the face wow
🥋Osu!👊🏾
UECHI RYU STYLE :) MY NEWFEW HAVE BLACK BELT FROM THIS STYLE I LIKE THIS KATA
