  • André Bertel sensei believes that anyone can become a master (at anything). Firstly, practice the same way you brush your teeth and secondly, ignore the competition!

      I was honored to have Kanazawa Hirokazu Sensei privately train my Enpi in 1996 thanks to Paul Wang Sensei. There were some differences from JKA/Asai Sensei's Enpi, but I really enjoyed learning the SKIF version.
      Kanazawa Sensei impressed me the most by how he was very caring of everyone. Such a nice man and exemplary human being. I will never forget that time, away from karate, with such a kind hearted man.

    I guess that's the difference between a martial art and sport fighting. I'm not going to denigrate anyone who has dedicated themselves to MT, boxing or whatever but at the end of their fighting career they will be judged purely by their record. No question that they can go on to train champions but it will ALWAYS be about wins vs losses over another fighter. Before someone mentions Muay Boran (or its equivalents in Cambodia and Burma), ask yourself how many people would willingly sign up for something that brutal today and how quickly the authorities would ban it. For most of us, the opponent is that flawed creation in the mirror ;)

    Hello! I would like to ask, how long must one train in your Karate system in order to be able to fight these 3 type of attackers:
    1. an experienced aggressive streetfighter, meaning a guy that loves fighting and hurting people
    2. that has trained boxing for 3 years
    3. that has trained Jujutsu for 3 years
    ...if he as a student is just a normal person afraid of being hurt or even of hurting others and trains 3-4 days a week.
    All I want to know is the years of training, that is, 1-5 years, 3-8 years, 5-10 years, 7-12 years, 10-15 tears, 13-18 years, 16-21 and so forth. How many years are needed to stop his attacker at least in order to escape!
    But feel free to answer anyway you like, and if you like; I understand you might be a busy person, as so am I. Besides, I have my answers, I just want to hear your expert and sincere answer, one that I can trust, to see how far or close my answers are.
    Just reply e.g.
    For type:
    1=...years
    2=...years
    3=...years
    PS. I am talking about a normal student, not one with a disability in learning. And with a good Karate teacher teaching strictly "clean" genuine Karate.
    If you don't want to answer here, you can answer here .....(removed)...
    and I will see it first chance I get. In that case I will delete this message tomorrow or after tomorrow, so it and my email will not be seen by others.
    If after some days you have not replied, I will remove my message.
    Thank you for you time, either way!

      Thank you for your question! This an interesting one. Please note, I am not André sensei, so he may have a more qualified opinion.
      My assumption is that in case of pure sports Karate, you will probably not be able to defend yourself in the scenario that you describe. Or just by pure luck. The reason is that in sports Karate almost everything is forbidden that could seriously hurt someone. And winning points is not the same as surviving a combat. Without any kind of realism in your training, your Karate will be...let's be honest, useless!
      If on the other extreme end the training is purely and 100% Budo focused it may be a different story. It certainly depends on many factors, the most important one being your instructor. But you also need to consider the student's age, physique, constitution, personality and many other factors. A petite lady can't be compared to a bear of a man. Also, under which circumstances does the fight happen? Are we as defenders full of energy and it's bright daylight, or are we tired and sick and it's dark, cold and wet outside...? There are a million factors that will determine the outcome.
      Your question is therefore a bit like asking how long a piece of string is.
      If one learns to target vital points right from the get-go, i.e temple, throat, eyes etc. and everything revolves around "ichi gekki hissatsu" - and you actually translate all of it into regular kumite, then you might be able to survive after a few years or even months...?! Or still, never!
      No matter how many decades you train, there will NEVER be any guarantee. At the same time a totally untrained defender could knock the attacker out in half a second. How would you know? It's not at all deterministic.
      For comparison, even the most perfectly trained and skilled marine or SAS soldier can die from a tiny bullet if the trigger was pulled by a four year old child.
      In most cases the best option should be to run away and to avoid conflict in the first place. Self defense usually starts miles before the clash. This can be learned in one day, I suppose.
      Everything else might be a matter of probabilities and circumstances.
      Kind regards!
