- Learn practical Karate applications (bunkai) for Heian / Pinan kata, also called Pyung Ahn in Taekwondo. These kata were created by Itosu Anko and modernized by Gichin Funakoshi. The bunkai include grappling, tegumi, throws, takedowns and joint locks. These are traditional self-defense techniques from Okinawa - the birthplace of Karate.

Jesse Enkamp how to perform a kata with emotion
Greetings from Germany
I'm dan 3 I learnt kumite for you
@@MZONE3D I never use two handed blocks as they leave you with no fall back defense if the initial attack is a good feint.
I was sparring with a brown belt from Hong Kong. He was a typical southern Chinese, thin and very fast and with excellent technique.
I went to cross block his chudan mae geri but it turned out to be a feint and he retracted his kicking leg slightly and then executed a perfect jodan mae geri over my cross block, stopping it 1/2" from my chin.
I stopped, bowed, thanked him for not kicking my head off my shoulders and never used a two handed block again.
With his kicking leg already forward he would not have had a lot of hip power behind his front kick but I have dropped guys with jodan lead leg mawashi geri so I have no doubt that he could have dropped me if he hadn't been such a fine and moral karateka.
Osu very informative Sensei Jesse! In fact, I think that's a common problem in many dojos where practitioners are shown dojo moves, katas and techniques but are not shown how to adapt their techniques to the street. I also read somewhere that even many high ranking black belts have been in an actual street confrontation! I train in Ninjutsu which as you know, is the art of stealth. Even though it is an art all to itself, we train in kata and kobudo. We also get a little bit of military style training because both of my masters were in the Marines. I love kata because for me it's training in strength and focus but we also train in real life scenarios and attack situations. I find it's a must because we're located in NYC. But we're also taught that no matter where you are, an attack can come from anywhere at anytime.
In most karate dojo’s In the United States they do not practice like this at all. It’s mostly Kata’s, Meditations and stretching the whole time. Once in a while they might throw on the headgear and pads and do some light spiring but that only helps you in tournaments and teaches striking distance, but doesn’t help you at all in the street when somebody is rushing you with fast forward punches and then trying to take you to the ground. But this is why I like your channel so much you show a side of karate that I didn’t know existed. Old-school karate mixed with a little small circle jujitsu ❤️
Shukokai Karate does Bunkai
Shokokai does Bunkai what team are you??
tho usually it only thought in japan we saw a few bunkai but mainly even othe shokokai focus on Kata and Kumite more than bonkai (on other country) since we arent taught just demo
Unfortunately alot of karate schools have trained that way (karate sport) for many years. Which is why people from the outer karate circle, Do not believe or understand the truth about traditional karate . People will practice and learn a kata for years without being told the real reason for its purpose. Lucky for us sensei Jesse has the knowledge and experience of traditional karate and is sharing for us to understand.
Insurance is why
I have black belts in Kodokan judo as well as hapkido.
Pretty well everything is present in kata if you understand bunkai.
With work, though, and practice, the only limit is time.
I wish I had 1000 lifetimes to practice karate!
In your 1000th lifetime u would be the best fighter of all time i guarantee
The truth at last, I trained in shotokan for many years and was never shown bunkai.
It wouldn't have made much difference anyway.
In 95% of schools, they don't even understand the real bunkais.
They don't understand that blocks are not blocks, but hikite is not for generating more power.
And it's only going to get worse with the olympics
I too experienced the same issue in Shotokan; no bunkai practice. It wasn't until I began studying Shorin-ryu that bunkai want not only practiced but highly encouraged.
Same, shotokan bore me compared to shito ryu
I practice shotokan too. but i do have practice bunkai
Kata and Bunkai were the cornerstones of my Karate education.
I've been an active martial artist for 39 years, and I owe a lot of my understanding to proper Bunkai:
Something that is lacking from 99% of martial arts schools in my opinion.
Most Bunkai taught is total bunkum.
As you know as a Shito Ryu student that Pinan Shodan is the first kata that you showed as the second kata. Funakoshi changed it as he thought Pinan Shodan was a longer and harder kata to learn than Pinan Nindan. He also changed the kata name from Pinan to Heian for Japanese translation. Kuniba Shogo Soke, said that Funakoshi trained in his fathers dojo one time, and said it was too violent. All that aside, your kata resembles Shito Ryu, and not Shotokan karate and your form and kime is beautiful Sensei Jesse. OSU!!!!
Watching your bunkai, i am reminded of some tips i understood myself:
1) the fundamental part of understanding the applications are not the starting positions or the ending positions, but rather the movements that brings from A to B. Herein lies THE application
2) the same application not CAN but WILL BE FOR SURE found in other katas under a different shape; i.e. defence against the same situation performed by a different move, OR the same move or principle that will however look different, but it's still the same move
On a side note: thanking God, you do not list Pinan/Heian by putting the second before the first, you start with Shodan, then Nidan, wich is the actual meaning in Japanese, yet there's schools or styles that do otherwise
Brilliant demonstration. I'd love to see more of that!
Yes please
Great video! I teach Wado Ryu in Tennessee, USA, and just last week I was showing those exact same bunkai for Shodan, Nidan, and Godan! It’s great to see like minded people across the world and across different styles!
Nice to see some sensible and realistic applications instead of the silly misunderstandings we see so often as the "authoritative" explanation.
my former dojo's interpretation of karate was a really hard one. My sensei told me ones that were are no throws, takedowns and so one, expect the 7 from funakoshi.
My interpretation was always what i see in your videos. 5 years ago i left my dojo and so my karate evolved into something "softer" - i use more bars, takedowns, throws and so one.
Mostly my interpretations are in the way you do it. But im really glad to see that i you give me some more ideas.
I really wish i could thank you with some other ideas from me. :)
Karate and jujutsu are two sides to the same coin
This is one of your best videos. I think kata applications should be ingenious but not over complicated
You teach Bunkai very well. The teachers in my dojo spent too little time on Bunkai. Bunkai need to be understood, but also practiced a lot. The moves aren’t super hard, especially if you’re more advanced, but it takes many, many reps till it becomes second nature. The same with sparring tactics. They didn’t teach us that. So, everybody follows instinct- they keep backing up. They don’t practice to learn self defense, or even score a point in kumite. They just try to keep from getting hit. That’s why 90% of white and yellow belts quit. Keep it up, Jesse. You totally have it right.
I love the Pinans and am so grateful for the light you've shone on their grappling and practical applications. This. Is. Beautiful.
Thank YOU!
Sensei Jesse existence is pure GOLD! for all Karate enthusiastics. Thank you.
My favorite video of yours, thus far, Jesse! Please do more like this. Osu.
I wanted to mention my son and I got to train earlier today at my school’s gym ( I’m an art teacher at the school) as we try to do each Sunday but we went through some naihanchin and pinan bunkai. I showed him your bunkai from pinan shodan. Thanks !
This was enlightening. I had no idea the extensive use of grappling karate had. I do Thai boxing. Now it’s easier to train my clinching sweeps because of this kata. I wish more karate instructors could do the actual applications of kata like you.
Great video, Jesse! I love your content. You are doing a great service to the karate community. Keep up the good work.
Impressive video, I found it very helpful in my training in Shotokan karate
I'm so happy to see there is someone who I believe carries the legacy of engaging Karateka in not only technical aspects but passing on historical understanding of traditional karate. Never one to rest on your laurels, you always question and research.
I trained for 28 years with the renowned Karate Instructor and Martial Arts author, Dr. Clive Layton and would encourage you to meet.
He has trained with and written biographies for some of the greatest Karate Masters in the world, and been responsible for deep insight and historical research into Karate and other aspects of martial arts. Plus technically, I have never met a more technically brilliant kata exponent.
I think you're a kindred spirit and would point you towards his books as a starting point.
Keep up with the good work, oss
You are indeed a true karate genius. No one gives such tremendous insight like you do.
Jesse-San, awesome video! I wish you could show all the applications from all 5 the Pinan/Heian Katas! I know you are limited on time, but thank you for creating this video!
Man, thank you very much for the videos of bunkai, has helped me to better visualize the katas and to understand what I am doing, so I can get the forms much faster and with much more quality, really, thank you and great work.
I think you cannot be an ordinary person to some of us, Jesse-san. You're like our sensei. Thank you so much. Oss!!
Always great videos. Your bunkai is so traditionally useful. I practiced Goju Ryu when I was younger but have trained exclusively in Japanese jujutsu since 2008, and people would be surprised to see how much of real karate is jujutsu.
Wow...Thank you, Your teaching ability and your sense of history is remarkable. You bring the historical aspect with a modern interpretation and application. Make a great Sensei. Who knows what hes teaching between modern world. UOS..!!!
I love your video's, very well done. I also would love to see more application video's. Thank you for all you share.
I always watch your kata bunkai because this is so helpful I'm not a karateka but a taekwondo jin and we don't have bunkai but we share the same techniques in kata which is also applicable in taekwondo
Jesse . In both Greco Roman Wrestling and Judo .
One of the first things you do when looking for under hooks and Gi grips is to control and dominate the wrists from the top position .
This simple and common sense movement now makes the Bunkai absolutely applicable.
Please write me or talk with your brother about grips , before you post .
All the best.

Love the bunkai techniques and oyo Sensei Jesse
I practice the pinan katas in Kosh Shorei Ryu Kempo My Sensei always made us practice bunkai at the end of kata class week, we had kempo techniques week and a jui jutsu week.
Real best friends are always up for helping out. Taking the hits for the team. Great video.
Always love to see some good bunkai! Good video as always Mr. Jesse.
Cheers from Texas Isshinryu Karate Academy!
very good!!! 👍
We do many application drills but also we do it in free style without pressure like a easy sparring. Most in the near distances and grappling. This is a great training of learning the body mechanics and teaching fast improvisation. Because the partner should be incorporate and doing opposite techniques. This is in my eyes the key. It's like rolling on the ground. This teaches enormous.
Is awesome how bunkai can bring us a real sense for the kata. It's more then kicks, punches and blocks. It's more about contact and domain of the situation. I love it. Thanks for sharing this interpretation.
Most definitely, that's a great perspective. Keep learning!
as someone with only an inherited karate background and did mostly mma (my lifelong coach started from shotokan, kyokushin and judo then transitioned to BJJ).
Sensei's Jeese's bunkai vids are really one of the only ones i will watch, the reasonings and adaptations for actual combat are sound and hell, it looks applicable even in a cage or the streets.
Prime example is that knife arm with the whole arm instead of just the wrist, i do it without realizing it until now in grappling as a transition to takedown defense or just a way for me to have a better posture when clinching. I just wish Sensei would do bunkai vids much more 😢
Thank you jesse for this video cuz im learning all the pinan/heian kata for a seminar and this helps a lot😊
Great to hear! Keep training hard & smart ;-)
Excellent video!!!
It took me years to understand that aplication of Pinan/Heian Sandan, but in the Niseishi Kata. When I finally realized it, it was like seen the light... like "whow! How could I not saw it before!" Haha!
The movement at the beginning of the pinan yondan has been taught in Muay Thai as defense against thai plum. The only difference is that the hand that goes up slams onto the face of the opponent, other than pushing the opponents hand up and away. Thanks for shedding light on the old practical karate sensei.
Oss🙏
That's an excellent version of the throw. Thanks for chiming in!
Thank you sensei Jesse ! I will apply it with my students! :) Warm regards from Mexico
I very much appreciate the information. I am lucky to train at a dojo that still does considerable focus on realistic, sensible training on top of the kata. Too many places I have visited no longer provide any insight as to the purpose and reasons we do kata.
Bunkai are always fun to learn and play around with. Our instructors would, on regular occasion, make use do mirror image kata as a way to help us avoid becoming better on one side or the other. We also did turns with rotation in the opposite direction (such as rotating to the inside vs. outside) and another good modifier is retreating instead of advancing. With all of those variations you can adapt bunkai pretty easily when something doesn't work. I think this was my favorite part of learning kata, but man does it make your brain hurt trying to do something so unfamiliar. :)
Man there are so many kata videos on TH-cam but when it comes to bunkai, I just wish someone can make a full series of all the Shotokan bunkai,
Great stuff sensei, more Bunkai please 💜
Heian Shodan>Godan looks simple but finally get to see the meaning behind
Very much inspired, Jesse Sensei
Love bunkai, love kata, love karate, love application, thanks sensei 🙏
Thanks Sensei. Your tips are very usefull in my karate classes.
Thank you Jesse,you are amazing 💫🔥🙏🏼I'd like to see more bunkai videos
One day I will be like you. I'm studying hard to know everything about karate. You are really so motivational and well informed. OSS
Very beautiful video! Applications and their explanations are always extremely appreciated! Thanks
My pleasure!
Thank u so much!! I love to learn bunkai and this was so helpful💕 I practice shorin-ryu but karate is karate! OSS.
I really liked your pinan sandan bunkai, it's indeed much more a wrestling/grappling technique. The same movement can be found several times in the Naihanchi katas.
Your videos are very informative...thankyou
I love it! As Pendaker Paul said about the jurus, (which are like short Katas) . He said: " the jurus are motions of many motions".
GREAT bunkai video!
I liked the bunkai for shuto that you did. I didn't know how to make shuto uchi flow like that... great stuff!
Beautiful and very useful bunkai Dear Jesse my deep respect
So,I had my first street fight today and I hated every single moment of it
I have been practicing shotokan my whole life and practiced kata with proper bunkai
But in the moment of action,I just forgot them, I only remembered one shuto uke and that's all I used
Tho I was able to run away from the situation but this experience made me realize something
Never get into a street fight no matter what.
Try to avoid it all costs
Perfectly explained, thank you for sharing
I like that you use common concepts in many martial arts
Thank you jesse san ,
I used to practice bunkai but now i got to know what i did was wrong bunkai.
Thanks for showing me the right one
finally someone is teaching the practical applications for Karate!
Arigato sensei it helped me a lot to learn about the techniques
素晴らしい。
形の分解を日本人より理解している動画ですね。よく練って考えられたのか、良い師匠についたのか。
参考にします。ありがとうございます。
Thank you Jesse, very practical applications. Ossu !
Great video sir. I love the enthusiasm
Awesome video. It is so cool seeing the application's. There are so many similarities with the application's to the applications of the seven star praying mantis and wing Chun I practice. But as you say same journey on the martial arts mountain. Thank you for all the cool stuff. 👊
Best vid I've seen so far on TH-cam😱😱😍
I’ve done that kata!…A lot of good basic moves, that are very effective!…nice!…thanks!
I learned that clinch counter (8:22) from my friend who is an Aikido practitioner, great bunkai breakdown as always! Osu
Excellent video jesse put more of those plssss show us different takdowns to take a opponent down in a fight without just going all in and start throwing fists
Thank you for the video. Most helpful.
Good video!! You could maybe do a small series where you just do the bunkai for each kata but I imagine it would take some time to explain everything especially in a video.
Now this is real bunkai
Great video Jesse Sensei
Great demonstration
This is helpful..thx
Oss. Gracias por los bunkai sensei. Excelente
I especially liked Pinan Godan application. Will share that tomorrow morning at class! Thanks Jesse san!
Have fun!
Is great to see how much karate is more self defense (even looks like jiu-jitsu/aikido) then pucnhs and kicks
Hugely informative, thank you!
Thank you for the good inspiration.
4th kata is awesome 👏✊👍. Again video Jesse
after all of the kata tbat i have learned , i have found that the pinans have become my favorites as they can be used more due to the simplicity.
Mr Enkamp you re better teacher than many Japanese...
OSU Sensei Thank you for this one and keep them coming
Love it. Was actually waiting for it.
we want more like this thanks jesse
I loved one quote of your video on quotes about Karate by grand masters, by (if my memory is good) Gichin Funakoshi "in past times a master would know only 3 forms or up to 5 if they were skilled"... Clearly it was not a matter of memory or time why they didn't know more... any motivated child nowadays know.. 10? But this video show the very truth about Gichin O-Sensei.. as Bruce Lee would say "you must not think, but feel". I really do appreciate your work.
I love a good bit of bunkai
Anothet excellant coverage Jesse ive mainly done Chinese kung fu and whu shu stuff little Jydo and Aikido but i find your Japanese Karate vidoes very interesting and always interesting Your joyrneys to China indonesia and Okinawa have obviously been good for you and everyone else and you are moving very smoothly in this vid Respect from Scotland
Awesome, thank you!
Awesome video Jesse!
Great video Jesse as usual. Loved it!
Wonderful! Much appreciated
Thank you so much I understand karate with you
Super helpful thanks. A lot.Love from uk
Great video! Just as informational for TKD also. Kreds to Tradional Tae Kwon Do ramblings for linking this
I do shorin ryu matsubayashi ryu karate, and due to this bunkai video I now have more reason to perfect pinan sandan 💪 oss
Pinan/Heian both mean "Peace" and "To Stay Safe." Heian was also a period in early Japanese history.
When I first started in Shorin Ryu and when I first learned the Pinan kata, I had studied the Heian kata from Shotokan and other styles' version of the kata to get ideas for bunkai.
I like your demostration about kata...💪💪👍👍👍 the best for you.....oss
I need request for you to explain about kihon in your content.
Thank you jesse super Video 💪💪🤗
Thank you for the video
I was thinking of preparing for the black belt and I needed to prepare bunkai
@@kbanghart good luck
