I love this. A lot of people are too busy trying to argue which fighting style is better. But at the end of the day, we are all martial artists we are more similar than most people think.
Its refreshing to see karatekas, and members of WTF and ITF taekwondo (and many other styles) in one dojang, all learning together. I do ITF, but I do believe that every martial art has something to offer. Rivalry between styles is dumb. Lets be open minded !
@@jeremyleeflores4353 I read the Wiki that there's a multiple different main style in Taekwondo: Traditional (Tang Soo Do), Chang Hon (ITF), Songahm (ATA), Jhoon Ree, and Kukki (WT). And there's a sub style called extremist taekwondo where you learn all the style.
As a Korean, I can shed some light on the loyalty aspect based on my experience. It is from the place of loyalty; time and experience are the greatest teachers. Time teaches you patience regardless of how well you relate with the boss or coworker. Experience teaches you to adapt and through that growth, you gain a skill you can use later on. When working together, both will teach you reflect on the reason and strength of your loyalty.
Seriously, super interesting! The best part of your videos are that they often have such a fantastic blend of philosophy and practical application of techniques. It makes me miss being part of the karate community and at the same time it makes me realize in what ways my dojo was lacking.
@Jesse Enkamp So fantastic to see this! I began my journey in the martial arts in Taekwondo. I wrote a research thesis on the origins of Taekwondo found in Shotokan and Chinese Martial Arts (Gweon Byop). I then studied Shotokan Karatedo for several years after that and have since training in Kenpo Karate-jutsu ever since! I appreciate all that you do and have learned a lot from you! Thanks!
Great! I am 66yrs old and started Martial arts at 18yrs old. I first studied Wing Chun for 6 years or so and then studied TKD for around 14 yrs reaching 3rd Dan. I then went to live in India, staying for 20yrs! I carried on martial arts but became a Yoga student, one on one with my Guru for 90mins a day. I love Yoga as much as Martial Arts now! I recently, at 66yrs old, discovered a great local Shotokan club and have started learning at this club as a white belt. I believe all martial arts are good to train in for health and fitness as well as self-defence and that it's often the Man or Woman and not the art that's most important. I still do daily Yoga and respect all Martial Arts and all serious Martial Arts teachers and Students! OSU!
I loved this video. It warms my heart to see so many practitioners from different TKD styles being open-minded enough to learn from you. People are always arguing whether ITF or WTF is the best and true TKD federation. During this seminar all that trivial politic bullshit didn't matter. They were just martial artists like everyone else who were craving for more knowledge and ways to improve themselves. And karate is perfect for that. After all, if a Taekwondoin wants to learn about the roots of TKD then there's no better place to be than traditional karate.
I study Thai/Kickboxing and BJJ and always thought karate was a bit 'hit and miss'. But that elbow lock was nasty. Some might say "if its so effective then why isn't it used in MMA?" because if that was applied to a resistant opponent, their shoulder or elbow would pop straight away. That takedown was pretty sweet as well. Keep up the good work! Oss
Jesse Enkamp I like very much your English, I usually use TH-cam captions, but your English is so good respect pronunciation that I receive 2 lessons in one: karate and English, very good work, your positive energy is what more I like ✔.
Jesse Enkamp Paradoxically, frequently I understand more the English of non native speakers than the English of native speakers. You answered the question I was thinking some days ago, even before I asked... I wanted to ask you if you take care about your pronunciation when you make your videos, now I realize than the answer is yes... I don't notice an accent... I don't catch the finlandian accent when you talk. 🤔☺
back in 1972 my sparring partner was a black belt in Isshinryu and i was in Taekwondo. I learned to respect that style. Short punches and I learned about utilizing rom the hip to the tips of my knuckle from this guy.
I really love this. I truly believe that "karate" training can only enhance one's understanding of Taekwondo. After all, Taekwondo's roots are largely influenced by Shotokan. And from the short time I spent in Goju-ryu, I can say it made my Taekwondo better. And in fact, if people are interested in taking Taekwondo for self-defense reasons, I usually encourage them to pursue a good Karate school. Because the two arts are similar enough to where the person would still enjoy it, and I have found (unfortunately) it's easier to find a Karate school focused on self-defense than a Taekwondo school.
I can't believe I'm just seeing this video. This is what I tried to do from 1995-2010. I started off my Martial Arts career in Korean arts (Tae Kwon Do and Tang Soo Do). When I found Isshin Ryu Karate was when I really was taught about Bunkai application. I went deep into Bunkai and all I thought of was helping my Korean roots. I taught a couple body mechanic/self defense/reaction drill seminars at Korean dojangs but was not well received. I simply tried to help them be better but was shunned in the local martial arts community. I got extremely disheartened. That combined with close minded people, extra large egos, MMA practitioners not wanting to learn traditional Karate and my health issues, I lost my desire to continue and didn't have the money to get surgery for my health issues. You Mr. Enkamp are my hero, brother never stop living your dream. I wish I could collaborate and train with you. We could learn so much from each other. I am glad to see you had better luck than I and I truly believe Karate is making a comeback partly if not largely because of you. I'm trying to get my MOJO back before I get to old but money for surgery us a big factor. By the way your hair looked really good coming down the escalator, lol!
soooo nice to see taekwondo-kas following your instructions and i its also nice to see so many different other style and sharing passion. soooo daaaaaamn nice! ive started tkd 10-11 years from now and as i started every dude told me, that they dont want any other styles (and i cam from shotokan and practice it 9 yrs or so and i see soooo many things they share and they didnt see that and didnt want to see that). i wish i was there... looks sooo good and i hope everyone has enjoyed this seminar. for me its much more than one dude teachs others. iits more like breaking some lines and spread some knowledge. soooo good! i hope some other dojangs book you for seminars and bring all types of styles together. rly good! thx for sharing this and much more thx for doing those things. i know soooo much self called "masters" that woud never cross that line and im so happy that you doing this! great!
People keep argueing over and over again on which martial art is good. mostly they say taekwondo is the worst but comparing doesn't do anything. Honestly I watch this channel very very often and I watch every video again. You make the great work keep it up. You are the real karate champion!
Awesome Jesse-san! I love that you're breaking down boundaries between Japanese & Korean styles; which shouldn't be there in the first place. That was one lucky Dojang & fortunate Sabeomnim!
I do Bujitsu I am a 5th degree black belt. I started doing martial arts at the age of 12 and now I am 54 and still doing it. I love martial arts it is a way of live. I learn a lot from your show.
Gotta love the intensity on the face of the kid with the red/black rank at 5:30 as well as the "fire" in his strong practice. I don't know the right words in Japanese nor Korean but it looks like he practices with strong purpose.
I love your way of teaching. I have parted with karate long time ago (maybe I will come back later), but watching your videos makes me want to come back some day.
Nice to see the exchange of ideas between karate and taekwondo. i personally look at the concepts and training methods of other martial arts and incorporate it into my training. We can learn from eachother. There is no martial art, who is perfect or complete. Its kind of interesting, how different the philosophy and point of view from differents countrys are. In china it was very common that after ending your learning with one master, he would send you to the next master to learn a different style so you can complete your training. There is nothing like the ultimate martial art . thats why its important to have an exchange from ideas and principles from the martial arts. :)
I like your videos Sensei. It's refreshing to see people involved in different styles training together. I believe that this Integration can teach us all how similar we are rather than fuel the ridiculous debte about which style is the best. I'm a KARATE practioner but I admire TKD they have great kicking techniques. There is much we can all learn from each other.
Jesse, what you said in your car ride really was insightful. Our western culture is a hodge podge of all cultures and this is in all areas. I never thought about it quite like that. Well said sir...
Hi sensei Jesse :) Im into training for about 25 years starting by learning boxe and kickboxing. I did not like to hit people but I didnt know why. Then I moved to martial arts. Bang, the one true way, for me, to become a greater person, a better human being. Ive watched your videos and I relate so much with your philosophy. Thanks a lot for sharing your ideas, thougts and discoverys. Also, I think you are a great teacher and I would love to take part of a siminar if you come to Montréal, Québec, Canada :)
I like how people say certain martial arts dont work and they may not but look at the enjoyment people are having (Not trashing karate as I practice karate and other martial arts)
Very nice Loved the video. Martial arts is about learning all you can and not restricting yourself to a certain style or art. Use what works for you . Be safe and Thank you again for the great videos.
Greetings of the day Sensei ! Oss ! I liked the seminar at taekwondo club there , and you where telling while being with taekwondo sensi that in Japan people stay in only one dojo , it's not just in japan but it is there in entire Asia, I am not being offensive , I am trying to clarify the system here is that we have a Guru parampara , we never leave a Guru ( a Guru means dispeller of darkness , a guru is more than a teacher , we respect a Guru equivalent to God ) who has initiated us in some Yogic or Martial Arts system , this culture teaches never forget the path that we came , and by heart felt reverence we never forget our Guru who has lifted us from who we were to who we are now ( through his / her teachings / techniques ) . By practicing the teachings and propagating his teachings we slowly become his disciples .. so this a Spiritual system that helps a person to evolve by practicing a particular technique ( that is known as a Sadhana ) that I have commented before that Karate is not just self defense and fighting, it is just the outer shell , it has a deep inner dimension which is Spirituality . This is the difference between Asian and Western culture , now the time has come , the westerners have to dig in the path of Spirituality, the body that we see is only the outer periphery, beyond this body there is deeper inner dimension to explore .. Without experiencing it you may not understand the system ... Hope you may got the point what I meant. Namaste !
Jesse respects karate traditions in a POSITIVE way, yet he avoids the narrow outlook which can be the DOWN side of traditionalism. I went to college in Baltimore but spent the summers home with my parents in the New York suburbs. So for my summer training I returned to my high school Kyokushin school. That first summer Shigeru Oyama was open minded toward my Baltimore Taekwondo. But the next summer the new Sensei was 20 years old, fresh from Japan, and - I was to learn - narrow minded. I proudly and naively told this Sensei that I did Taekwondo during the school year, and I proudly recited the names of my hyongs (katas) NOT KNOWING that they were named after Koreans who RESISTED THE JAPANESE in World War 2. My gaff resulted in a black and purple thigh for me.
Very nice. Not the usual Tae Kwon Do class. Nobody was throwing those high kicks. I’m a karate guy, and the classes you guys do always seem more fun than mine, and I have the bruises to prove it. Sweden and Norway seem like great places to learn-except I hate cold weather. Nice video. Keep it up.
I once heard: "I can't surpass my sensei if i only practice with him" This is true. In order to get greatness, you have to learn everything from many people.
As the thai fighter that you sparring with some years back says, "We can learn much of other styles and add it to ours" we are martial artist, we love this , is our way of live.
That looked awesome! It really looked like everyone had a great time and learned a lot! Patterns/Kata/Tul have always fascinated me so much, both in terms of pure learning, and the applications. I'd love to learn some Karate forms at some point; to add to the Chang Hon forms that I already know and practice.
Awesome video!! What you said near the end of the video is so true. I used to practice taekwondo before I started karate and while they have taken kicking to a wholly excellent level it is important to train differently because I think they(taekwondo dudes/dudettes) lack in other areas. BTW great music!
Very nice to see different styles training together! Like Jesse said in the beginning you most likely wont see somthing like this in Korea or Japan If i am not mistaking I see someone wearing the Kyokoshinkai sign on his Gi
Karen Boone I don’t think so. I been to Texas to see my mum boyfriend army friends. And I didn’t like the food in Texas. Just not my kinda thing and way to fucking hot for me and too dry for me
Sensei Jesse, another excellent video! I started with TKD in 1977, just reading a book by Master Woo Jae Lee, here in Brazil. Since then I trained Karatê Shotokan (and Muai Thai, KyokoShin, etc). One thing that I learned is that TKD is an ancient art of combat. For that reason I suggested that You need to go to Korea (when and if possible) to bring us the relationship (if exists) with Karatê. OSS and Tack!
Im a white belt transitioning into a halfway white yellow belt in tkd and i do kickboxing and ive been studying self defense for at least five years now one of the first things ive learned from my sensei is to expand your knowledge and sometimes its about the person not the style and how affective you are in and people don't understand they might be good at karate but better at mma or good at bjj but better at Muay Thai you never know just saying
Also I have learned shotokan karate so please show us some video on how to fight in kumite? And what is the difference between kumite fight and street fight?
Very cool, looks like that was a Ji Do Kwan Tae Kwon Do flag in that school. Ji Do Kwan is one of the orginal kwans that came together to form tae kwon do.... (and my style :))
This video makes me think about how instructors get so attached to their notions. If you're an overly traditional instructor of any discipline related to self-defense, think of the words "adapt or die." Those words probably hit home for students and enthusiasts (myself included) who face dangerous situations.
Oss sensei. Sensei those submission was awesome. That arm lock you did to her, looks so dangerous. Sensei if possible can you post tutoral videos too? Like how to use bo and submissions and grappling, throwing etc. We would live to see those videos. 😀 oss sensei
50-50 Percent. You should come to U.S. Taekwondo seminar. Plus Taekwondo is divided between ITF and WTF. ITF Taekwondo is much more full contact. You will be very surprised.
But that is actually incorrect, surely there are full contact itf and semi contact wtf schools, but officially its wtf=full contact, itf=point fighting
My buddy (who is a tae Kwon do practitioner) and I (karateka) are wanting to open a dual dojo together one day. I teach karate and he teaches tae Kwon do, and our students learn from each other as well.
Yo awesome demonstration of the lock, and it's mechanics of it, two question though. Never done Karate, so I just wanted to know are throws allowed in 1) Sparring and 2) Competition?
I love this. A lot of people are too busy trying to argue which fighting style is better. But at the end of the day, we are all martial artists we are more similar than most people think.
+TheBoredJuan Positivity brings us forward and together 🙏
What a truth bro
Absolutely, this is the most mature way of approaching martial arts! Well said!
TheBoredJuan the differences in style aren’t as important as what brings us together 🥋 ❤️
Exactly.. ❤️❤️

yeah youre right. But little things, like luring your opponent to strike the way you want (from WTF TKD), is good for ITF, and so on.
Ima old school kukkiwon stylist I've been waiting for the unity of TKD ... sport & traditional we can definitely learn alot from each other

Marl O I am from a kickboxing background aswell and trust me Karate is more then just chops the original style in its raw form is very lethal
Karate is very effective in mma, look at wonderboy, GSP, Lyoto machida, conor mcgregor, whitaker, etc etc

Great video. I've always loved learning new stuff.

I once heard: "I can't surpass my sensei if i only practice with him"
This is true. In order to get greatness, you have to learn everything from many people.

Just found this video, fantastic, im subbed, all the best a kickboxer from Manchester England
Cool! Thanks and keep kicking it! 👊
This was awesome!
You used what you knew to help them learn more!
And you learned some stuff from them!
I would like that there is a TH-camr like you but for Taekwon-Do. P.S you are great, I really like to watch your videos😄

Hey Jesse, that was an awesome trip. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice to see different styles training together! Like Jesse said in the beginning you most likely wont see somthing like this in Korea or Japan
If i am not mistaking I see someone wearing the Kyokoshinkai sign on his Gi
Now that looks fun. I say this as a former student of TKD.
Great videos!! I can’t wait to see a video with a Taekwon-Do ITF master, it would be really interesting!
Awesome video as always jesse sensei !
+TheVierinsky Thank you! 🌟
I love how you applied Seisan techniques in real life!!
The more I watch your videos, the more I regret transitioning over to mma. Karate nerd for life (:
Do both! You have nothing to regret, only experience to gain and apply ;-)
Jesse Enkamp if you don't mind me asking. What type of karate do you practice and teach? I took kenpo so what I learned is a bit different
Loved it :) would you ever come to Texas to teach a seminar? Would love to learn in person from you! :D
For sure! I heard Texas has good food ;-)
Jesse Enkamp we have the best and biggest food ;) :D
Karen Boone I don’t think so. I been to Texas to see my mum boyfriend army friends. And I didn’t like the food in Texas. Just not my kinda thing and way to fucking hot for me and too dry for me
Super video Jesse! Love it! ;-)
Love your videos keep up the great work
Great! Thanks a lot!
Sensei Jesse, another excellent video! I started with TKD in 1977, just reading a book by Master Woo Jae Lee, here in Brazil. Since then I trained Karatê Shotokan (and Muai Thai, KyokoShin, etc). One thing that I learned is that TKD is an ancient art of combat. For that reason I suggested that You need to go to Korea (when and if possible) to bring us the relationship (if exists) with Karatê. OSS and Tack!
Im a white belt transitioning into a halfway white yellow belt in tkd and i do kickboxing and ive been studying self defense for at least five years now one of the first things ive learned from my sensei is to expand your knowledge and sometimes its about the person not the style and how affective you are in and people don't understand they might be good at karate but better at mma or good at bjj but better at Muay Thai you never know just saying
great seminar Jesse san i like the karate nerd bag
Awesome how the different styles bowed differently. I practice Kyokushin so I saw the guy bowing with fists closed straight away haha. Awesome! Osu!
Another cool video, dude. From London, England
+purepunisher1 Cheers mate!
The mawashi uke application was very good
7:30 Everytime you do this I have to make it 0.25x to watch and learn but, how would you describe the flow in here?
P.S. noice travel vlog
Also I have learned shotokan karate so please show us some video on how to fight in kumite? And what is the difference between kumite fight and street fight?
Karate and taekwondo my 2 martial arts👊
+Moises Miranda Awesome! 💪
Taekwon-do and Brasilian Jiu Jitsu😁
Doesn't matter what martial arts it is. We all are sisters and brothers United by the curve of learning Martial arts
Absolutely!
Very cool, looks like that was a Ji Do Kwan Tae Kwon Do flag in that school. Ji Do Kwan is one of the orginal kwans that came together to form tae kwon do.... (and my style :))
This video makes me think about how instructors get so attached to their notions. If you're an overly traditional instructor of any discipline related to self-defense, think of the words "adapt or die." Those words probably hit home for students and enthusiasts (myself included) who face dangerous situations.
Oss sensei. Sensei those submission was awesome. That arm lock you did to her, looks so dangerous. Sensei if possible can you post tutoral videos too? Like how to use bo and submissions and grappling, throwing etc. We would live to see those videos. 😀 oss sensei
50-50 Percent. You should come to U.S. Taekwondo seminar. Plus Taekwondo is divided between ITF and WTF. ITF Taekwondo is much more full contact. You will be very surprised.
????? It is the exact other way around. wtf is full contact and itf is not, itf allows head punches and wtf not
@@nytrodralyg5268 my understanding is that WTF was Point based fighting.
Where is ITF you were more going for The Knockout.
But that is actually incorrect, surely there are full contact itf and semi contact wtf schools, but officially its wtf=full contact, itf=point fighting
@@nytrodralyg5268 okay I haven't practice Taekwondo since I was 14.
Relax.. Breath..
Hey..what about your style of karate vs kyokushin karate?..I would love to see this :)
Man, u need to visit a tang soo do dojo. Will be great
When did you start studying karate?How old were you and how old are you now?
I miss being at a Dojo. Wow. Thanks for the Adventure.
+Ace Verhel Come back soon! 💪
great job as usual 👍
My buddy (who is a tae Kwon do practitioner) and I (karateka) are wanting to open a dual dojo together one day. I teach karate and he teaches tae Kwon do, and our students learn from each other as well.
awesome video sensei OSS when you are come to India???
Taekwondo student here 🥋👊🏻 seeing what this is about 😁
LOL Getting to my dojo takes as long as flying Sweden-Norway. I wish there were any good dojos nearby )= Awesome karate all the way, Sensei Jesse! :D
+Henrique Nakamura Hah! It actually took 45 minutes back because we had good winds ;-)
Very nice. Enjoy your videos.
Style is a crystilization....a process of continual growth
Do you think you could do some kobudo videos? Love the videos.
I love your vids❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💝
Yo awesome demonstration of the lock, and it's mechanics of it, two question though. Never done Karate, so I just wanted to know are throws allowed in 1) Sparring and 2) Competition?
I love the intro music! I actually think that you plagiarized the music that plays in my head when I ever I walk into work.
Jesse-san if I had known.., visit us sometime in out ITF TKD academy, and you will enjoy the Caribbean beaches too
What the move called at 6:14?
Taekwondo is really just Korean Karate. I trained in it for severals and our forms were identical to Shotokan.
Yup, that's a common way of looking at it
