I practiced shotokan at Spain for years, and after watching these videos I realized how important and rare were those bunkai mixed with self defence applications of the kata that my master (3rd Dan) used to teach us. I've forgotten the katas after some years, but never the moves and the knowledge about how my body behaves itself in those kind of situations. Thank you so much for rekindle those memories with your content, master Jesse.

I love Iain and his practical kata principles. I discovered him over 15 years ago when trying to gain a better and deeper understanding of karate because at the time I was living and training in Finland a sport version of WadoRyu and they did not offer much explanation and historical context to what we were learning. Iain's approach helped me not only understand the meaning and purpose of kata in karate but also gain a deeper appreciation for martial arts in general. He's one of the greatest living western karate senseis for sure.

I do ITF Taekwondo and the number of times you actually realise in live sparring you are using stance shifts out of patterns/kata is surprising, I guess it shouldn't come as a surprise as I'm sure that's what they were designed for in reality😊. I suspect something got lost in translation along the way in a lot of modern interpretation so I really like these videos and Iain Abernathy is great my instructors Ian and Zoey Fendt have attended one of his seminars and they rate him highly also. I love Jesse Enkamp no ego at all wants to learn all the time, how all martial artists should aspire to be.

Keep doing what you’re doing. Thank you!

I can say that most of the black belts which I know don't ever get around the part of practicing the bunkai. It hurts my soul to see some sensei applying such a superficial knowledge of the kata and try to pass it on to their students. I hope I'll one day get to learn as much as you two and possibly share these experiences with my colleagues karatekas. Thank you for your hard work and for helping the karate community. Oss

Omg I've been a martial arts nerd since I was little, my first BJJ class saved my life in my opinion from being detrimentally overweight and weak. But it also jaded me to martial arts because all the stuff I looked up to as a kid was being demonized and accused of being fake and a waste of time. It's amazing to me to see people like this breathing new life and a sense of intelegent application to old school karate like this. Makes me want to restart my whole martial arts journey.

I like to consider that when the other guy grabs me, Now I've got him. :) The stuff you teach is great! I read Dillman's work years ago, and incorporating his interpretation of bunkai which include nerve strikes, along with the grabbing and angular aspects that you illustrate, fills in a lot of blanks. When I started I was taught the post WWII bunkai which was Bee Ess. Your mastery of historical literature is so worthwhile. Most high level teachers do not seem to have such an operational love of the old masters' works. Thank you for being deeply informative without bloviating. 😃

In a part explaining pulling a person on to a punch the elbow goes back past the body, however in a kung-fu post the elbow only goes to the line of the body. A bit of both together makes sense pulling the opponent only to where the elbow is level to the body would make for shorter faster punches, and a position of both hands in front of the body to defend. In all jui jitsui there is Kata, it's never a stop start but flowing and often not even noticed by the practitioner because it's a standard of movement and the Kata is only practiced for a grading and not normally for regular training.

Training kata can be good for your mental faculties as you age. If you can train all the katas in a system and remember them, then do them physically and correctly, there is both mental and physical health value, a bit like Tai Chi. Also, they can be trained for much greater exertion. My current training partner, a two-time national champion in a major Shotokan organization kills me: Kata (pick one, based on attendance), 25 bupees, 25 pushups, 25 situps, wind sprints - begin kata again. After a few rounds, just remembering which katas can be challenging... GREAT STUFF as always! Knighthoods for you both, CBE! Go by the palace on your way home and pick'm up!

Good job. Every comment made is correct. In the end it is all Aiki (do) flowing as he explained. Example. Practice the kote gaeshi (outward wrist twist) in Shotokan using Hiki Te flowing then you got Aiki (do) Use Atemi waza in Aiki (do) you got Shotokan strikes. Use close range hip throw Ogoshi then you got Judo. Add nage waza then you got Aiki jutsu thus Aiki flowing from one to the other in doing so more circular movement is used i.e principle of sphericity.

I enjoyed this video, I don’t practice karate but I like to see people seek the true meaning behind the katas. A lot of martial arts are a shadow of what they were due to being diluted over the years, by people who either didn’t understand or adapted what they were originally taught. I would recommend you get in touch with Alan Jones from the Uk. He is an ex karate man who is head of Tabimina Balintawak in Europe. His understanding of the hidden techniques in karate kata is second to none.
