Okinawan Karate: The Science of Fighting Dirty
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Many forget to realize that there's a difference between fighting to win versus fighting to survive. Karate as a self-defense aims at survival; without rules, without time limits and without weight classes. Therefore, actively drilling what many consider "dirty" techniques can potentially save your life one day.
We are a group on a mission to return Karate to its roots through the use of Kata as self-defense.

Very nice. It let's people know that traditional Okinawan karate was created for self defense not for sport.
+kenneth mullins Thanks, we're glad people are reacting to it positively
Yes a huge reminder that karate isn’t a sport it’s for true self defense and as well the practitioner who trains and understand instead of saying the typical shit like keyboard warriors say it doesn’t work it’s the practitioner not the martial art many and I mean many don’t understand but again people have choice to pick what they like so I’m not complaining but respect their choice of martial art instead of always shitting on karate 🥋..
Now this is called REAL karate. Not the WKF/Point Fighting karate or Knockdown/Kickboxing karate. Loved the movements, it's brutal, dirty, violent but beautiful. It definitely is a worthy art for Batman fight choreography.
I remind my father who had served 11 years in Korean Army Special Force(The Black Beret) as a officer. He has black belts; 4th of Kuksul HKD, 4th of TKD(70's old school) and other techniques from various Korean Martial arts.
He often taught me moves like your video, My family moved a lot due to his occupation and I was a new kid, big and chubby, easily picked as victim by local bullies. He said "Not for fight back, but make sure them me not a easy target." and showed moves onto me. It was painful.
By him, Some nasty moves from old school TaeKwonDoh which still had similarities from the original source, Shotokan Karate, were taught for me and had saved me to escape from lots of troubles.
Definitely efficient moves, I guarantee.
Thank you for great works.
great story, thanks for sharing and thank you for the kind words of support!
Agreed. For me, there is no such thing as "dirty fighting". Anything goes to survive - biting, scratching, eye gouging, weapons, attacking in the dark, etc. But then you must only consider fighting if you think that the price you might need to pay for the consequences later was worth it. Nice job on the video!
+Martial Arts with Colman Great point, thank you!
Survival is survival by any means...As my Shihan would say: If your kata bunkai is dirty, you will survive, but too clean, forget about it"......This is real karate...Excellent video!!
Effective violence is beautiful in it's own way... which is to day that your applications are beautiful!!!
+Ryan Parker Thank you, a compliment coming from you is something we hold in very high regard, thank you for watching our videos!
Just stumbled onto this channel and love it. I train in Freestyle Karate in Australia and we do a lot of practical self defense for real world situations. I didn't see anything 'dirty' in there! Its not fighting dirty if it means you get to live another day.
You will fight like you train. Training should include, what some would consider, 'illegal' techniques. I think karate should be trained in a realistic manner to survive a violent street altercation. This is what karate was originally intended for.
so true, thanks for the knowledge
Absolutely we need that in today modern time so many people don’t understand that and it needs to be addressed now 🙏
Now THAT'S what's up! Yeah, I know I'm way late and probably nobody will see, but this just popped in my feed. I've seen a couple of their others and THIS one is even better! These guys go hard in showing kata applications...I can SEE stuff from Chinese through Okinawon...and I love it!!!
Excellent! This is the way we now train. Eye gouging, soft targets....real self defense!
Great stuff!!
much respect!
+MechanicalMartialArtist So great to hear of other martial artists who keep the traditional methods alive
amazing stuff guys. I genuinely wishing spent 10 years doing this rather than doing basics up and down the dojo.
was never taught proper bunkai etc. they were just interested in medals. as is most watered down karate system.
love your channel.
thanks! Hopefully we can cause a change and really bring back this type of karate globally in other dojos
Great video! That is how real life karate looks like...
Thank you so much for all the content that you guys share here. I'm a Shotokan black belt and self defense is one of my main focus when I teach my students. I love how you guys use kata and kihon in a fluid and pratical way. Keep up the awesome work. It's wonderful to see young masters showing how our art is really complete. I hope to get to meet both of you one day and do a few training sessions. All the respect from Brazil. Osu!
+Lucas Sena Thank you for the great compliment, we are definitely not masters just two people with a passion for the art. It's great that you emphasize self-defense in your classes, that's a big part that is missing in today's karate schools. Thank you!
Excellent. This consists of many tech one can see in Kenpo as well, as it focuses on bunkai far more than the form itself. Great work and editing.
This is why I love Okinawan Karate. Beautiful work guys. Osu
That was amazing
All I can say is great job!
That's what I'm talking about ! Fight with a fierceness ! Great work guys!
Finally good to see something that looks like Bunkai and Oyo fully expressed (drill i know) but thats the way, no more sports Karate unless it has a big sign SPORTS KARATE GAME
Excellent! the best interpretation and pragmatic adaptation of the form! karate is unlimited. osu!
A W E S O N E ! Love the intensity
Brilliant video as always guys. Much love from the UK! This was one of my favourite videos so far, more please!
+James Holt Thank you! If we're ever on that side of the pond we'll definitely let you know, it would be great to meet up and train!
+karateculture indeed it would! We would love to have you
Liked video ... good illustration of learning what has a good chance of working and what doesn't work in real life confrontation ... that's what practice is really about.
É nisto que eu acredito! Belo trabalho!
Nice!
Very interesting movie...as always !! To catch or strike the nose, the hears and eyes is really important to make all possibilities to win a wild fight for survive...it is sad but you are right to remember us those rules. Thanks guys.
the bite attack agaisnt the rear naked choke and the triangle are so simple yet enginious!
I really want you to let go of the submission why not bite? my teeth are right there! in fact you just brought your arm/leg closer!
very nice 10/10
That was a good video gentleman
0:48 Finger separation. The guy will no longer be able to grab or punch you with that hand 😆
Hi Guys , i practice Budo taijutsu and i Love your conceptuall approach towards the Japanese warrior arts ..because by the end of the day you want to walk home to your loved ones concerning survival ..:). Keep up the good work !!👍👍
+Illium75 Great point, self-defense is about living another day, thank you!
like all of the videos, but this one is a favorite.
+Carl Postuma Thanks! Short, dirty, and vicious, we like it alot too!
Serious and seriously fun.
that was deadly, loved it!
thank you!
very well edited. Great music.
thank you!
Awesome work ! Thanks
Another inspiring video! Can't wait for my next class. Keep up the great work and efforts. Oss
+ihavenohair1975 Awesome, glad we can motivate you to train harder!
I particularly liked the uppercuts into the sole of the foot.
nice job,
from Birmingham UK
An excellent video, as always.
Amazing video as always, I kinda miss kin geri, in my opinion we all most of these techniques unconsciently becouse is the way we have to defend ourselves (like the punches to the genitals and the "finger breaking"), and it is always useful to practice them from time to time
+Ignacio Buendía So true, we can't expect to do the techniques effectively in a self-defense situation unless we train them in the dojo, thank you!
That is the meaning of the word ''Kime'' : bringing all you physically and mentally have to survive. There is no first attack in Karate, therefore the act of violence which consists to attack someone who seems to be weaker is actually ''fighting dirty''' ! But doing all that you can to protect yourself is self-defense !
It's incredible I don't care if it is a weapon it you have to become a weapon in order to defend yourself if it's anybody that tries to hurt you or attack you or even say something wrong with you it's all about unlocking the power and using that power to save a Life and your own life or any other life depending on how you use it as how it is in karate you keep at it and it'll work much better in your favor 🥋👊💪😉✌️👊🥋
Karate in a civilian context is solely for the purpose of self-defense. It shouldn't be used for settling arguments or disagreements, it's too deadly for that.
In the context of warfare it is well suited to dispatch the enemy quickly and effectively when the situation demands it, or any other means are not available.
It is a pure form of violence that is best utilized for defending oneself and others by means of violence (the true meaning of self-defense). Therefore the reason for the old masters cautionary advice of karate not to be used to initiate fights.
P.S. Violence is never the answer, until violence is the only answer!
awesome!!
Pardon me being the weeb, but after reading "Shamo" and hearing about Karate specifically designed to brutally destroy the human body, rather than just stop an attack, and assumed it to be hyperbole or something that had been lost to time, in a practical sense.
I am both positively surprised and terrified to see such a menacing series of techniques.
Incredibly skillful.
The history of karate is complex, originally created from a mixture of indigenous fighting methods and chinese martial arts. It was solely practice in the beginning by the okinawan warrior class. With the conquest of the Ryukyu kingdom by the samurai Satsuma clan, it mixed with japanese yawara (jujutsu) and propagated throughout the islands. It was taught clandestine because of the restrictions imposed by the japanese, until modern times when it was introduced in the scholastic system and then Japan itself. For a time it was part of the judo curriculum until prof. Gichin Funakoshi and Dr. Jigoro Kano parted ways. It was then that it was modified into the modern version aimed at a form of physical fitness and sports development.
The original karate was designed as a method of self-defense and also for combat.
this is the real deal!
thanks buddy!
A lot of action in under 1 minute and a half.nice demonstration of what's called Dirty Fighting
+coolbut Nogame Thank you, we wanted to keep the video short to parallel the techniques shown which are meant to end the fight quickly as well
Is this Okinawan Goju ryu karate
At one point, was one of the practitioners simulating striking the sole of the foot?
Yeah felt wierd! Please explain! Because the sole seems to be quite made for impact... or actually its aimed for the small bones between ball and heel so the opponent cant stand up
Yeah, I felt the same well. I think there may be areas in that general area that may be vulnerable to a punch but the sole of the foot?
KillerSalmon I would rather try and twist the ankle or maybe try to do something to the big toe.
Rushiano
The pad of the foot and the heel are highly impact resistant. The arch? Not so much. Hence why it is a more common injury area for fasciitis.
A fitting comparison would be to get hit on the crown of your skull as opposed to the edge of your jaw. Both are parts of the head, but one can be used as a weapon (head butt), while the other is usually a sure fire way to switch your lights off in 1 hit (KO/concussion).
@@rushianokun I have a friend who was a top student instructor at a tae kwon do school, he was small, then, and they sparred to get rank. The others were much better kickers than him but he is a very wise fighter and now a world class BJJ competitor. He used to punch them in the soles of their feet when they tried to kick him and that ended the sparring match many times!
try using the wall and floor as advantage. anyway this is a good insights.
love it
what is this style????
Awesome. Fights can go too far. Better be ready for things to get real.
0:29 Wow... What devistating foot punches... 🤣
Pressure points😂😂😂
Great video as always gentlemen, although I take a quick issue with the strikes to the arch of the foot at 0:30 -- it's a rare self-defense scenario where your assailant is barefoot, and even then there are far more effective targets to strike from that position. Again, I hate to be a TH-cam critic, but just a quick observation from what is otherwise a fantastic video.
+Ben Andersen Thank you for the constructive comment, we acknowledge that while punching to the bottom of the foot isn't optimal, if it is the only option then at least we should train it just in case. Thanks!
I actually saw some kata movements in there.
+blockmasterscott Great point, kata is everywhere!
Oss!
I think you guys could benefit from some anger management counseling 😱......good work as usual gentlemen!!!!👊
Okinawan Shuri Ryu Rules...
OSU that was intense
Which okinawa karate style in particular was shown in this video ?
By any means to walk away alive
@M T As long as it is Self Defense you won't serve jail time
Awesome job gentlemen! Love you channel!
+CombativePanda5 Thanks! Cool videos for you as well, where are you located? It would be great to visit and train with you one day! thank you!
That would be awesome and well I don't really want to disclose that here is there somewhere we could email better? Sorry lol. But I would fed world love to get together if at all possible and train. I would love to extend my karate and martial arts background.
Would love* sorry for the typos
+CombativePanda5 Sure thing! send us an email at karateculture@gmail.com Hope to hear from you!
+karateculture in which nation do you train?
:42 wrap one leg around the attacker leg to keep from being lifted.
great catch, that's definitely the first thing to do if you feel you're going to be lifted really high. It just isn't "dirty" ;)
I would like to point out that both of these gentlemen are also very strong, physically. They obviously lift weights and condition themselves.
Dirty fighting used to be integrated into grappling, it was known as "gouging".
definitely! seems like it's getting lost nowadays in the grappling arts as well
You kats be bang'n, for real...that's a real-world way to train!
+Tonio Yendis ha! thank you for the compliment!
+karateculture - no problem. The goal is to try to de-escalate potentially violent confrontations when possible, but in those times when we have no other choice than to defend ourselves, my goal is to inflict maximum pain and discomfort on my adversary in as short a time as i can! If that means they will have broken bones and blood lose, so be it!
These blokes fight so dirty even Bob needs to suit up…
Where have you learned all these bunkai?
Which style are you practicing?
we train in okinawan karate, specifically shorin ryu but like to represent all old style karate
Starting to look like Kung Fu San Soo. Excellent.
Karate comes from kungfu.... It could be said that karate is another style of kungfu.
@@tatumergo3931 Not any of the Karate I’ve seen. Different principles. Check out San So videos.
Great vid, I'm old kenpo guy. Question, is Okinawan karate the same as Shotokan and Goju, etc ? I never looked into so called traditional arts, very interesting.
Shotokan was the development by Gichin Funakoshi for scholastic application of karate. It originally came from the okinawan styles of shorin ryu, but then was modified to become a modern dynamic method of japanese kickboxing, which was a response to western methods of boxing and kickboxing (like French savate).
Today modern sports karate has become a farce of what shotokan was and karate-do in general. The okinawans still cling to the old methods shown here in this presentation.
American Ed Parker's Kenpo karate developed from a compilation of different karate methods that were used in Hawaii by the japanese community there. His interpretation of the katas at the time were an attempt to make sense out of them.
There's also an art style in Japan called Kempo or Kenpo, which it's based on Japanese swordsmanship and jujutsu (yawara). The name itself is just descriptive of the method of fighting with a katana sword and other weapons, and also different applications of unarmed combat.
Then there's the modern creation of Doshin So a former Japanese soldier and spy, who studied kungfu and mixed it with different Japanese styles like judo, aikido and japanese karate-do to create his own style of shorinji kenpo.
What style of traditional Okinawan karate is this? I wish to learn it but I don't know what this is called?
Shorin ryu
It's also all the other styles of okinawan karate, shuri-te, goju-Ryu, tomari-te etc.etc.
This method is being particularly developed by like minded individuals who seek to go back to the original roots of ryukyu karate.
Members are besides Michael Nguyen and Aaron Garcia, Patrick McCarthy, Iain Abernathy plus others...
This is some great stuff! *Clicks Subscribe button*
+chromerhodium thanks! we appreciate your support!
:37 thumb knuckle strike to the spine?
;-)
That it
but wait who is the main character
Hello vsauce, Michael here.
wow this looks awesome.
i hate the most karate in german because is so "useless" . (sry my english is bad,its hard for me to explain what i mean xD)
i hope i find a okinawan style shool in my town. ;)
thanks for this short clip!
Sorry to hear there isn't much to offer in Germany, we don't have any experience there so we can't offer any recommendations. However, if we ever visit, we'll be sure to make an announcement and hopefully we can train together!
Your English is understandable; don't worry.
If you want to survive if you are attacked, this is what you have to do. Survival is not sport, learn the pressure points and live to fight another day.
I believe this and aikido/aikikai is the most realistic self defense arts the eyes,nostrils,eardrums,ears,mouth,toungue,throat is not banned like in ufc or mma.
Aikido/ aikikai are modern interpretations of the older methods of yawara, like Aikijujutsu. Which was a very effective method of jujutsu used by the samurai. Still found today in some koryu styles like Takenouchi ryu and shinjo ryu.
Your*
That's very much like Jiujitsu.
+Andree K That's a great observation, we always say any style who's goal is to maximize efficiency will always end up at the same conclusions. We are all the same!
+karateculture Osu.
When it comes to really fight it is just physics need to accept that चार्ज ओं थ्रेड इस द ओनली वे
so out of curiosity, is karate the only art you guys have studied
we currently cross train in Brazilian jiu jitsu, freestyle wrestling and have intermediate ranking in judo. Other styles we've delved into include Muay thai, kyokushin, kung fu, kajukempo and similar variants. thanks for the question!
Dirty fighting more like defending yourself in a real situation.
Has Mr. Aaron (アーロン) ever had that necklace ripped off?
+Todd Ward Yes many times, but better to lose the necklace than have it used against you ;)
True.
use what is useful in real life
great point, thanks!
nasty stuff! Not too bad that it got hidden °-^
Great!

Jyoshimon shorin ryu karate-do.
The concept has similarities with JKD
JKD is what Bruce Lee tried to rationalise about real fighting, his fighting philosophy developed from the idea that striking and grappling needed to be integrated into each other. It can be said that Bruce Lee's JKD was the precursor to MMA, but this already existed way before, it has just disappeared from lack of use and sportification of styles. Which involved a lot of over-specialization of the art in question.
When researchers started looking into the original methods of many martial arts, they found that they all contained elements of grappling and striking.
Therefore, fighting is part of human culture to defend themselves against enemies.
@@joshuapacia6316 . Since the beginning of the species as aptly portrayed in the film 2001: Space Odyssey....the monkey scene!
this was more funny than inspiring.
did he just try to bite into a forearm for a choke? lol
yes he did! it works if you use it as a distraction to escape, instead of just biting the arm to stop the choke
Just looked at it, he bit at the initial stage before it was sunk in. Thus making his "attacker" either abandon the choke or hesitate to do it.
Therefore giving the "victim" time to work an escape.
Осу!
Great, you dont learn this in competition/tournament based martial arts
Kick to the willy, then run away, don't even need a karate suit....
Back in my youth days that was the first time I saw that technique applied in real life, while waiting in line at a movie theater by my then jujutsu and karate teacher. Only that time there was no running away, the whole class when into the movie theater to watch the Bruce Lee film, and when we exited the theater the individual was still on the floor writhing in pain.
A very eye opening lesson of how self-defense was going to be taught, learned and applied.
P.S. Don't give suckers a second chance!
Is it just me, or is this similar to Krav Maga?
Krav Maga is a method developed by jewish freedom fighters to defend themselves during the times of the formation of the state of Israel and the jewish homeland.
It took actual applicable techniques from all known martial arts at the time. Alongside boxing, wrestling, savate and judo, it also took elements from the lesser known karate-do.
It is a quick and easy practical method of training troops and civilians in basic hand-to-hand fighting and self-defense. Today it has become a style of itself, but basically it is a compilation of different effective methods of fighting.
Okinawa karate was created for self-defense and survival. Not sport.
Agreed, thanks for watching.
Yuck, biting? You basterds! Lol.
Whatever lets you live another day! lol
if u want to fight dirty don't wash your underwear for a year or 2
A BJJ purple belt would end you. Your escapes to chokes are laughable, try to actually bite into the forearm that secures the choke and see what happens. The person who's choking you can break your jaw. I'm not hating but I can see this channel is trying to introduce practicality into karate. If so, then eliminate these moves, they don't work
this is not dirty karate all at.. this is just normal okinawa karate and not even shown at a very skilled level.
+Okinawan Te Thanks for your critique, our skills are always a work in progress. We appreciate the comment
