Thanks for making such a great Karata/Martial arts vlog. I''m also trying to get the bunkai aspect into TKD on our school, sadly bunkai has pretty much disappeared from most TKD federations.
Kata is easily one of my favourite parts of training. If I had to pick just one element of my training that I could only do it would have to be kata. It's just got everything: strength, technique, focus, balance, controls - it's amazing!
This is correct. What else is the purpose of a kata? It contains what it does for a reason. These techniques are valuable at the very least in teaching you principles and showing you what's possible. Kata and applications should be inseparable.
A brilliant video again sensei I m also a karate nerd please make a video on bunkai of a kata Some commonly known kata as i m a brown belt only in shotokan
damn i love your videos, even more your blog, u do such a great work for karate in its global meaning jesse-san, keep up with it, you are doing GREAT!! (hidden seishin logo in the end uhu? i am so friggin' functional i'm totally immune to (not so)hidden advertising ha-ha)
Do you think someone could figure out bunkai on there own,ive practicing karate for a few months and the sensei has never said anything about bunkai? Im worried that maybe he doesnt know.
I'm not that familiar with TKD forms, but Iain Abernethy has done bunkai seminars with Chuck Norris' organization, whose style is very close to Tang Soo Do. Check out "Practical Kata Bunkai: Chuck Norris’s Chun Kuk Do’s Kong Sang Koon" and "Practical Kata Bunkai: Pinan / Heian / Pyong-An application drill at Chuck Norris's UFAF ITC 2012"
Jesse-san, you seem to fall under the unfortunate category of Karateka that misinterprets the literal translation of the word 'Bunkai' for application. Bunkai actually means 'analysis' or 'disassembly'. And before anyone out there comments on how he never outright states the meaning of the word 'Bunkai' in the video, I've seen his other videos and even read some of his articles and he still mistranslates 'Bunkai' for application

Kata training is so peaceful and so menacing at the same time.
And that's the reason i got my copy of Bubishi last week. It's awesome ! Thank you very much Jesse-san for letting us view our mountain from yours
David Flores Spoken like a true Karate Nerd! Thanks for supporting my work 😊

Tobias Sample Exactly! You got it buddy 👍
I love to practice bunkai. Perfect way to learn kaisai no genri!
Miles Sensei そうですね！
A brilliant video again sensei

Could you do a video on how to breathe during a kata, I have a lot of trouble with this. Thank you!
He actually has done one already, but it's part of his Karate Nerd Insider series.
I really like the stuff you show us in Insider, but I would love to see more of your bunkais there.
Esa Harjulampi Thanks, I will include bunkai in the next episode. Any specific technique or kata? :-)
No, just curious to see your ideas.
I hope you don't mind if I share this? Possibly the best worded explanation of this concept I've come across 😎🥋👍🏻
Fit Sensei Thank you! Go ahead :)
Can you make a video of annan kata ? And also details.
Extreme Gamer Yes I will! :-)

Yes absolutely
Hey Jesse where are you based
Galaxywing909 I live in Sweden
there are a lot of moves in TKD forms that doesn't make much sense.
Most of the moves in karate katas always made sense.
Jeff Gibson Many modern forms, even in Karate, were made for physical training - not self-defense. That's why.
I'm not that familiar with TKD forms, but Iain Abernethy has done bunkai seminars with Chuck Norris' organization, whose style is very close to Tang Soo Do. Check out "Practical Kata Bunkai: Chuck Norris’s Chun Kuk Do’s Kong Sang Koon" and "Practical Kata Bunkai: Pinan / Heian / Pyong-An application drill at Chuck Norris's UFAF ITC 2012"
Have you informed the WKF ???? :-)
Gerard Smullen This is not a sport 💪
Its funny that's what most fans of the WKF would say :-) then proceed to disprove themselves :-)
