Currently training in Muay Thai and Boxing, among other things. What I took from this video is: Karate is good for maintaining distance, moving in/out etc. You can use Muay Thai to CREATE distance when distance is lost and effectively capitalize on the various distances while creating the space, and the boxing is great for the overall striking, along with the Muay Thai. Agree?
It's nice to see you bringing karate to MMA. Working with distance has become a primary focus of mine, which I think is part of footwork, of course. When I start to physically work out, I want to find the most efficient ways to close distance quick. Of course, I don't want to walk right into an incoming attack either! I took a couple of fencing lessons a long time ago...little did I know that their focus on footwork would be what I became fascinated with so many years later! Great job as always!
Great point. Indeed there is quite a lot of successful MMA guys with karate background. Speaking about karate, i assume the talk is more about sport/point karate, where the footwork training is compatible with Shotokan(focus on speed) and also perhaps the northern China traditional wushu styles. The southern China styles (and some Okinawan schools like GoJu) use different movement principles (close range..). Thanks. Fantastic videos. Learning a lot.
Man I wish there was a good combat based Shotokan dojo where I live. I really want to utilize Karate in MMA but a lot of Karate gyms now seem watered down. I really like this channel
Really AWESOME! Is very interesting to know the training in traditional karate stances for MMA-Karate fighters like Lyoto Machida. I can't believe that there is all of that traditional karate in the movement of these fighters! Really great content Jesse Sensei! Osu🥋!
It's awesome to think after so many hours we spend in the seminar, there are still so many things to keep learning about. Hope videos like this keeps coming
Very interesting! I learned all those footwork patterns in JKD. They spoke of them as some great modern insight that evolved past those "primitive" traditional arts. Lol thanks for setting the record straight.
I do Karate, and MMA too. I'm the only one in my MMA class who does Karate, and its incredible how much they underestimated it, something that is very wrong, especially as a MIX martial artist. Luckily my footwork and kicks are very good, so I have been able to change (some) their minds, just a bit.
Incredible instruction Jesse, love every second of it. Dento Karate can be used in any situation, even in MMA. Thank you for showing us the big picture 🥋🇸🇪⛩🇯🇵👊🇳🇴
After watching Kyokushin Knockouts, I want to know where are the weakpoints and what are the non lethal moves to use for self defense. I rather learn to defend and attack effectively than to knockout my opponent and sending them in the ER.
oh man... wish I could take a selfie with jessie.... to bad I took a break (for work issues) btw, footwork is king! The basics are mostly what decides the fights it-self in what i have seen.... but then there are stuff like tai sabaki that some people overestimate and see it as a "perfect weapon", others completely disregard it completely, but in all honesty, no matter how powerfull are you punches and kicks if you can't touch the guy... plus, in good self defense you get away of half of what is thrown at you with awereness and footwork alone!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, all of those make me improve myself a lot, sensei. I would really like to meet you some day or visit your dojo, you're great!!!!👊💞
Quick episode. Nice content. I really like Vnicio! He seems to have a a great background, also traditional roots. Super cool guy! - ofcourse, I would´ve been disappointed, if any co-host, Jesse presents, would be 'not cool' :D
What were the three footwork exercise he gave? The first one was crescent stepping in zenkutsudachi. The other two sounded something like suriasi and yuriashi??
Tony Brizuela Pero no hay muchos nativos ingleses y estadounidenses que hablan español. Si no, porque no poner subtítulos en chino, japones, ruso et cetera? Jesse no habla español y no tiene sentido pedirle eso. El idioma ingles es la primera lengua internacional, por lo tanto hay que aprenderla.
Immagine someone 'ramms' you and tries to take you down. BOOM Zenkutsu-dachi ! I think there are quite a lot "how to defend my self from getting pinned to the ground" videos. You also see this a lot in McGregors fights, I think he 'likes this kind of defense' :) Tons of micro-movements ^^
But let's keep in mind that, as Jesse as mentioned in one of his articles, Japanese karate stances are highly stylized and unlike Okinawan ones can't be directly applied in more practical situations.
Karate stance is too wide and bladed. It has excellent in and out movement and angle changes. You can effectively strike from 180 degrees but if you want to be mobile at different ranges, if you need to square up or switch stances to walk someone down or escape a blitz you need to learn basic boxing stances. There isn't just one. Some styles have the weight on the back foot, front foot, or more even. Some styles are more or less blades. What I have learned is to become comfortable in every striking stance and foot position, to move around many different ways and cut angles smoothly, shift into and out of South paw while punching with different speeds and power levels, different head positions, etc. until I don't have to think about where my feet are to throw fast powerful strikes in any direction

The legs of vinicio are just like the ones on my He-Man action figure.
+PHK010 Haha!
Jesse Enkamp awesome video. Realy helpfull. The other one with Vinicio too.
Man this sensei could beat Heman easy 🤭
Mestre Vinicius Anthony, que disse como Conor venceria o Aldo, esse cara é um monstro
Awesome. Nothing like Karate footwork. POW!!!
...cough... Tkd footwork ..cough..
@@mikea7732 Karate and TKD footwork is not too similar except when viewed by non practitioners though TKD came from karate
The most important thing happens to be the thing that most people neglect. :/
+Voto Studios That’s why it’s the most important! :-)
so true
Mexican martial arts Karate is the key.
@User Name Mexican karate is like karate but better

Is there a connection between Sanshou/Sanda and Shotokan Karate stance? Both of them look kind of similar in many instances.
Man I wish there was a good combat based Shotokan dojo where I live. I really want to utilize Karate in MMA but a lot of Karate gyms now seem watered down. I really like this channel
Vinicio is JACKED. his upper back is ridiculous! karate footwork is intelligent and adaptable
Really AWESOME!

Hi Jesse, could you tell us more about the belt you are using in this video? It seems like it has some history behind...
amazing video!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, all of those make me improve myself a lot, sensei. I would really like to meet you some day or visit your dojo, you're great!!!!👊💞

Sugerencia: Ponerle subtítulos en español. no todos entendemos ingles.

This is for balance.
I had never think that zeinkutsudachi and positions of kumite are usable in MMA
+Yanis Lakehal Yup! More as transitions than static positions though ;-)
Immagine someone 'ramms' you and tries to take you down. BOOM Zenkutsu-dachi !

I went to a self defence class today which was Okinawa karate self defense the instructor said mma is shit for the streets. Is that true!!
