Im glad to see that you wear a white belt at the Kodudo class, It indicates that you are a humble person no matter if you are already a Sensei, congratulations Jesse, greetings from Mexico.
I’d wear my black belt on my head just to make sure people see it. Yeah that’s right I worked for this you appreciate it.
@@ComeAlongKay i don’t get it? On your head?
That kendo room looked awesome, but if I were to go in to that building without knowing what’s in it, I would think it’s a frickin’ slaughter house
that reaction after Jesse puts so much wasabi salt on his icecream :D
Loving this series!! So great for those of us that have never been to Okinawa!
Melissa La Cour Thank you! That's the point 😊👍
I used to live in Okinawa, seeing these videos brought back memories, especially the sound of the fan in the dojo. God, it could get really hot there. Ugh.
Pocari sweat and an Orion beer for later!
I'm an 8th kyu in Kyokushin-kan and I know I only practice Japanese karate, but still I have nothing but respect for Okinawan karate and for anyone who visits Okinawa (or Mainland Japan) to practice Karate (any style) I hope to visit Japan myself in the future!
8th kyu, so like orange belt?
@@williamclarke4335 light blue actually! And I'm a 3rd kyu now actually!
@@dakentaijutsu2010 Ah okay!
Keep going and reach black!!!
@@dakentaijutsu2010 then you can truly start your journey
“Screaming like monkeys”…im happy to see Karate Nerds terminology and use of language has matured since this video.
Greetings from Texas, love your stuff and learning so much!! I turned 42 and still training. i started at 12, did lots of cross training judo, bjj, boxing/kickboxing held texas chapionship 93, but now i have found how important kata is, it is the backbone of Karate. thank you gor your work and love of Karate!!
God bless
The beni imo tarts are AWESOME.
I'm a 1st Kyu in my Shotokan karate and am currently waiting to turn 18 to take my 1st Dan grading. Your videos have helped me a lot recently, keep up what you're doing Jesse, it's extremely helpful :)
The Freedom Cry Great! 👍 Good luck my friend! 😊
Jesse Enkamp I shall certainly try best ✌
The freedom cry did you get your black belt
Yo, you get that 1st dan?
Just started Okinawan karate about 5 months ago. This is really cool.
What style?
Jacob Arrowood I just started Goju Ryu. I really like it. A lot different from Shotokan
@@dakentaijutsu2010 you again
@@themartialartgod5425 What do you mean me again? you just replied something I commented 2 years ago
@@dakentaijutsu2010 hahaha ok
This would stand just on it's merits as an excellent Okinawa travel documentary. Karate adds a bonus. I love this video series.
About Okinawa and their life expectancy - actually, there are scientific studies about this and it follows a pattern observed in other parts of the world and this was coined the "Blue Zone Diet". Basically follows a lifestyle of low stress, moderate physical activity, high social interactions, no processed foods, and consuming almost only plants (only +-5% of total calories comes from animals and most of them come from fish).
I had the pleasure of training with Akamine sensei last year and 30 minutes of 1 on 1 training with him improved everything I had been doing for two years glad you got to train with him in his dojo hopefully I’ll do one of my gradings in front of him on Okinawa at some point
Thanks for sharing you trip in Okinawa Jesse-san. Reminds me a lot of great souvenirs when I went there in 2009 to film my 🥋 documentary. Wish I will be able to go back soon. Take care.
Lionel
Imagin' Arts Thank you my friend! 🙏
"Not like me a 100 and 20" HAHAHAHAHAHA.
Thanks man, you really help alot, nice videos!
Man I can't wait for my son to do karate
I really admire that you train adventurous to go so far away, and train with complete strangers. That’s really cool!
Okinawa looks exactly like my hometown, especially the older parts of town
Naginata was famous for warrior monk as well, so its never exclusively use by woman. its one of my favorite weapon.
Beautiful
Congratulations!One of the best documentary about Okinawa,realy instructive.
All 8 episodes can be found on my website: bit.ly/2iW7yCm 😊
Big thanks Jesse!
how old are you jesse?
Jesse Enkamp wait jesse why wre you white belt??
Jesse Enkamp Just a clarification regarding snake wine, snake venom is protein based, which means that it is broken down by alcohol. So even if the venom is still in the snake when it goes into the liquor, the alcohol will render it ineffective.
Whats the gym u went to?
Sensei your movements and Power are incredible !!!!! Inspiring
Mr. Enkamp, I know you did this over 3 years ago, but thank you! I've been studying martial arts since I was 6 years old, and have always dreamed of making a journey like this. I'm married and have two little girls now, but I'm starting to get my oldest daughter interested in karate. Because of work and having two very young children (not to mention the global pandemic), finding this video series felt like hitting the jackpot. This is the exact trip I've been wishing I could do; thank you for letting me (us!) see this through your eyes! Greatly, greatly appreciated!!
Jesse i never seem anithyng like that, my sensei come to okinawa, unfortunely he do not made a registre about his vacation, but your serie of vídeos come to me the real sensation to knew more about karate from okinawa. Thanks a lot!
Jesse Enkamp - Okinawa is known as a blue zone...Number 1 around the world for having the highest number of seniors living, who are 100years, or older. There are a few other lifestyle rules that apply as well: 1. 90% plant based diet ( particularly sweet potatoes, rice and beans ), 2. regular light exercise, 3. healthy social relationships, 3. a consistent spiritual life...For your interest there are another 4 Blue Zones, in order of seniors over 100years - no. 2 is Sardinia ( Italy ). no. 3 is Loma Linda ( Cal. USA ). no. 4 is Nicoya Peninsula ( Costa Rica ). no. 5 is Ikaria ( Greece )...Peace...Keep up the good work...
Great series. All martial artists could learn something here. 🌻
This beats netflix for me, thanks for sharing, Jesse! Oss.
Brilliant, thanks.
That food looks amazing, and so do those weapons!
Thanks for uploading Jesse ..I am Training in Akamine dojo here India .Very pleasant to watch ..I learn lot of things form your post and videos thank you very.
this video makes me wanna go on a trip to okinawa like the same trip Jesse did...
he still likes comments even if the video is 5 years old. LEGEND
This was pretty cool, everything, but especially when you talked about Naginata. I am so exited about this weapon and the stories about it. If I could have the chance to learn more about it and go to classes, I would be grateful..... So, thank you very much for this episode today !
Tanja Mayer / Ki-Karate Glad you liked it! Next episode drops tomorrow 😊
A brilliant idea. To buy a ticket and be able to walk into any part of the dojo you’d like. No contracts.
Loved it. I soooooo wanna visit.
This guy is gonna live to 100
Another great episode! I was privileged to visit the Okinawa Karate Kaikan soon after its opening in early 2017. The quality and workmanship of this facility is quite amazing; a wonderful celebration of karate-do. Also, fantastic that you managed to find an Isshin-ryu (“one heart school”) dojo! I had no idea about the double bone block! Another interesting feature of this unique style is its badge. The badge is known as the “Isshinryu No Megami” (一心流の女神) or “goddess of Isshinryu” (viewers are encouraged to Google it!). The badge is extremely detailed and colourful. It is also unusually large, taking up almost a quarter of the front of a practitioner's gi! The goddess is half woman and half dragon. Her left hand is open, symbolizing peace. Her right hand is closed in a trademark vertical Isshin-ryu fist, representing hard. Like the goddess, the Isshin-ryu practitioner strives to be "fierce in battle and gentle in life." Legend has it that the patch is based on a day dream Tatsuo Shimabuku had in the fifties while he was creating his style. Looking forward to next week!
You made me interested into Karate. I plan to find a karate school in my country. Thank you
I found this very informative. Makes me want to visit Okinawa.
沖縄古武道も素晴らしいですよね♪世界の人々に伝えてくれてありがとうございます！
Very good job of covering Budo.
Thank you for all of your videos. I really did enjoy this! Thank you again!
Imagine going there at night and hearing those yells 😳😳
you, Japan, Karate and okinawa :-D a lovely mixture ;-)
greetings from Germany
nice video. I can see the passion you have for Karate and the culture of Okinawa. thanks for posting this.
Where is the third one... can not wait...Thank you Jesse!!!!
so great that I can learn more things from the videos you upload. maybe one day I wish I could practice with you Jesse
Gracias
Jesse, great stuff with the weapons
Absolutly amazing! Thank you so much for sharing! Can't sait for the third épisode!
Awesome Jesse! I look forward to see the next one! I awoke up anxious to see this one because I know that in my timezone when I wake up there is going to be a new episode. Thanks for the great work!
Thiago Stangherlin Barbosa Awesome! :) Makes me glad to hear 👍
That would be so awesome to train there. Maybe some day I would go there. That is good to keep on practicing everything you learn the old and new so you won't forget. Keep the karate traditions going. That food looks good. That's interesting about the food because a majority of people in America are over eating have obesity and all these health problems with it. Load up on medication when they get old. Food is the best medicine. I would want my health whan I get old I want to keep on doing karate tell I drop that the way to go. Thanks Jesse.
It's so intresting to watch and I dont know anithing about Karate, but this is sooo good
Loving this series! I'm so jealous of you right now.
Sensei Jessie, this is amazing. I've been watching you for quite some years already. Yet, I have to thank you for all of your content you've provided. Also, I hope I have the pleasure someday to train with you. Take care Sensei.
Jesus Sanchez Nice! Thanks for supporting my work, I appreciate it! 🙏
No wonder why your TH-cam channel named as "Karate Nerd", the first video that i watched is How you apply the Gamification on your Martial arts class cause i find it interesting and good ideas when I'm planning my taekwondo class to my students. Now I've been watching your other videos like this one, you really love your martial art because you want to know the martial art tradition and it's origin. Like i said on the first video that i watched and i commented there that I'm taekwondo instructor . I find more interesting about karate and the facts you been shared on your videos. You know what? Sensie Jesse I'm going to see all your videos.
this is awesome you have seriusly motivated me to come to okinawa and search for the inner karateka who urns me to study every style of karate there is!!
EXTREME MARTIAL ARTS Awesome! Don't let your style limit your Karate 👊
I want to be a martial artist/tourist like you.. Arigatoo for the tour..
I'm looking forward to getting back into karate as it has been years.I will be taking Okinawa at my local YMCA Club.
Wow, this series just made me realize how much I NEED to go to okinawa... arigato Jesse Sensei :)
Excelente video e instructivo. Oss
wow! these are fantastic.
Good documented job you do for all karate people in the world .thank you so much .I'm a big fan of you incredible channel
Very informative episode! I really enjoyed it. Thank you :)
Rahul Nagar Awesome! Don't miss next episode tomorrow 💪
Jesse Enkamp Absolutely!! 👍
Wow! I always wanted to see the Budokan. Thank you Jesse!
That weapon training looks so legit.
You have some nice skills Jesse. Stay sharp like that!
Hi Jesse-Sensei,
You're such a cool guy! I really enjoy your series and one time I'm definitely fly to Okinawa! You should do more videos like this...wherever you are! Whether you're in Miami or Japan or even Sweden. Please show the world how you train and your lifestyle. Free blogs from you here on TH-cam would be great! Big respect, you're an idol!
King Regards,
Paul-San
Paul Sparka Great idea Paul-san! I will consider it 😊
Another great episode!
Excellent series Jesse. Really enjoying these.
Osu!
Great job again Jesse-san!
I am totally in love with Okinawa and its culture, waiting for the next episode.
By the way, your white t-shirt with the black logo rocks!!
All the best!
Fernando Gaona Thank you so much Fernando-san! 😊 Keep watching!
I come from the "Karate Nerd in China" videos. Going backwards I guess. As a Kendo and iaido shodan that "Screaming monkeys" comment cracked me up jaja! Now starting Shotokan at 42 and having a blast. Thanks Jesse! :)
How can you be so good with the weapons? That's crazy, wow!
Hi sensei Jesse it's not just karate where you clean the floors but there's a few Japanese arts were the dojo floors are cleaned before and after practice such as kendo and iaido it's a form of honor and respect for the dojo 😄
Keep it going, super kudos
Awesome work Jesse, me and my daughter's are planning a trip to Okinawa to train in the next year or so..🤟🤟.. definitely a few places we are going to visit for sure
Great video, always wanted to go to Okinawa and practice Goju Ryu. Thank you.
Loving these! Much love from Italy, a Shotokan Karateka.
Nadir Gasparoni Grazie mille! 👍
Hiroshi Sensei is great! I forgot the basics but remember the many techniques though lol
On the life expectancy thing, a researcher friend of mine found that once you correct for poor record keeping and pension fraud (drawing pensions for people who have actually died), people in Okinawa don't live any longer than anyone else in a country of Okinawa's GDP per capita. The same goes for the parts of the Mediterranean that are thought to have higher than average lifespans.
Great video, very entertaining and informative. (I was surprised to see your hands on your hips at 13:54 I would be reprimanded harshly for such behaviour in my dojo!)
Thank you very much for your videos Jesse!
5:35 - snake venom is mostly of protein nature, so it is probably denaturated by ethanol :)
I'll take the dry potato over the crab any day 😂 I like the Sensei's philosophy too. It's the whole jack of all trades master of none scenario when we don't perfect the basics.
Enjoy Plant Power Most definitely! Thanks for watching! 👊😊👍
Another great episode.
Sick
In America you drink beer with friends, In Okinawa, You eat icecream!
amazing
os
"looks like my grandmother hair"
I would eat all the food!
Sweet potatoes are my favorite after a workout. Sweet potato, packaged flavored tuna, and green tea
Very interesting .
9:06 Loved their reactions lol!
I enjoyed these so much!
I love this channel and really like the video very much. Awesome journey. Though as a former Kendoka (1st degree Dan) I am maybe a wee tiny bit offended by calling it "screaming like monkeys" hahahahahaha but yes, we do ;-)
..had too many free samples of habu shu when I visited on a holiday. I Think that, and high strength awamuri, could take the paint off a car.
Yeah #1 first :D. Nice Episode i really love it. Is there a online version of the document you received? Keep going its nice :)
Tony Löschner Thank you Tony-san! 😊 I'm not aware of any online documents, sorry. Next episode drops tomorrow! 👍
