A Hidden Karate Technique That Nobody Understands

- This common Karate technique is NOT what you think! It's actually a secret hand signal from Ming dynasty China. It was invented by anti-Qing rebels who formed secret societies to overthrow the government. This video explains why it appears in traditional kata from Okinawa - the birthplace of Karate.

Do you want to more Karate history lessons? 🥋
Yes I would love to but can u make a video on teakwandow
Yes
I can imagine coming out from a tree and saying "pst! Hey, kid! Wanna karate lessons?".
@@hilkiapanther2829 Everything from you is good Sensei Jesse. May God Muhammed and Ali be with you.
Definitely
I am Chinese and have trained and taught martial arts for five decades . I have to say that your video is very well done and historically correct.
I really appreciate that! 🙏
What style?
As a practitioner of Chinese Martial Arts I'm very proud to say that your videos about history are much more useful than a lot of videos released by my colleagues.
Thank you very much and please, do more historical videos.
I appreciate your kind words 🙏
Agreed, they're the best!
What style are you?
Yes more historical videos iagree💯
This salutation exists in silat as well, especially in Indonesia. Silat masters explain it as representing opposing forces like hard and soft, but it's always acknowledged as being of Chinese origin
Hi Jesse, this is a really interesting part of the history of kung fu / karate. You say the Qing Dynasty crushed many of the secret society groups except for the triads, but if you read about Sun Yat-sen, the first president of the Chinese republic that overthrew the Qing dynasty, you’ll see he had very close links to the secret societies, linked up with Kung fu. Many argue the secret societies were a huge part of the rise of the Republic of China and the ultimate overthrow of the Qing dynasty, so their aim was realised after all (but they were unprepared for the rise of the communist party in China). Their influence can still be seen in Taiwan. I know Martin Watts has a bit on all this in his book on White Crane’s history. Very interesting historical stuff!
Most definitely! 👍
Triads run China and by extension, the entire world, today.
It's said that two members of Triads are now in the head of the comunist party. And Triads were against rebellions in the Hong Kong last few years.
For any of those interested:
The character 明 is simply the characters for the sun and the moon put together as one character. It means "bright" because it would be bright if both the sun and the moon were put together (not in an eclipse way, of course).
Akira in japanese
And 明 is pronounced: "Ming". Hence - "The Bright Dynasty"
The moment when THE BIRTHPLACE OF KARATE comes in🤣 love it
The more I watch your videos, the more karate legends I've learned are being destroyed. You are destroying my illusions one by one...
Wow! This is a lot more in depth than the simple “hand representing knowledge and the fist representing student” lecture I got in Wing Chung class last week
Love this history lesson. Being 1/2 Chinese & 1/2 Japanese and studying martial arts from both I find this so fascinating about my ancestors 🙏 When i start practicing this in the Katas, it’s is so powerful and has an even more powerful significance with your history lesson.
This comment resonates with me since our sensei makes us empty the gas tank during kata training ...great comment and goodluck on your journey
My Sifu is the inheritor of the Southern Hakka Mantis Fist and many of the movements are similar to Karate Wing Chun and White Crane. It also has a signature form called Sam Bo Jin that is clearly an ancestor of San Chin. He say that the hand symbol is also the unification of Wen (Scholarly arts) with Wu ( Warrior Arts) excellent video though. Rei!
Fascinating! We have the same posture in Taekwon-Do. We are told that it represents Um Yang (yin and Yang) which ties in nicely with your comment about the sun and moon. It is interesting that this philosophical concept has a secret meaning. Thank you
I see what you did there, embracing the meme by winking at us. Its not a Jesse enkamp video Without the signature:"okinawa birthplace of karate" yes!keep up with the history videos
😉
Excellent and clear explanation of the true origin of "Baquanli", congratulations from Chile Jesse sensei !!!
It’s cool to see more connections between Karate and Kung Fu. I wanna know more about how the triads influenced Kung fu though.
I love history and karate. So together is even better.
Jesse is the 🐐 of karate videos!! What an inspiration to create my own channel to bring full karate classes to as many people as possible. Jesse never disappoints!!

I love your videos, content and ur voice tone are gold
Excellent presentation, always a privilege, thank you.
"Fan Qing, Fu Ming" or "Overturn the Qing, Restore the Ming". That hand sign is also the ultimate techniques in kungfu known as "anvil strike". Put the open hand on one side of the head for example and hit with a hammer fist with the other. In that way the energy of the blow rebounds and does more damage but you must be very close... Maybe as a final blow.
I love how he put that blink after he said the birthplace of Karate 😂
Good explain! Great video I like it
Thank you for your videos... i learn a lot of it.......
That is a great piece of history, very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
I have heard the ancestors of Mr Yagi (Goju Ryu Meibukan Yagi dojo) were the high rank officers of the late Ming dynasty, therefore their dojo etiquette gesture is the Ming gesture.
I heard the same thing. They came with the Sapposhi and never returned to China.
More history like this please I always been interested in traditional karate
Great video, Osu!
Great history lesson, thanks prof.
Jesse...love your content. Thank you for being such an asset to the Martial Arts community
This was such an informative video . I have seen this sign many times and i was eager to know what this means and you heard me ..🤩
Arigato sempei🙇♀
I really enjoy your channel for the fact that you have a "plethora" of information on the subject 📖 you have a new viewer to your channel ☯️
Hello Jessie you are amazing at what you do your so uplifting and encouraging your the best
Awesome as always.
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing the history of karate.
Simply wonderful 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks for this entertaining history lesson!
Thank you. Jesse, your research into the history of the arts, symbolism and etc is truly amazing. You are indeed thorough.
Did not expect that unpack🤔. Interesting
Great video! Also shows that Jon, Jin, Jitte (=Jutte) and probably Chintz as well appear to come from the same region in China and later Okinawa
Great more please love the history.
@JesseEnkamp you just blew my mind with this history lesson, god bless you. Thank you.
Cómo siempre, complacido y satisfecho con tu Vídeo... Ossu!
Thank you so much for keeping karate culture alive.
相変わらず勉強になりました
Really interesting, I'm a kung fu instructor and I think that you way to approach the study of karate is really complete and interesting!!
Very good History Jesse😄
You are one of the outstanding players in fighting and your channel is very distinguished. I wish you success in your field. I hope for more videos about kenbo methods around the world.
We close all our kata with this hand symbol in Shuri-Ryu. Trias put his own meaning into it, but I appreciate that we carry on the tradition.
I love your presentation of the matter.. & Tradition... Back to the roots.. 🔆🥋🤝Oss!!
Thanks for this video, Jesse san. About those hands, the way used by some Shaolin Monks for the meaning is: The open hand is the "book" and the closed hand is the "fist", meaning the "peace in the heart".
As a practicionner of Tai Chi Chuan Yang Style, this part of Karate History sounds ver familiar!
Thank you so much for the very clear explanations!
