@@greenreaper3633 Jesse is only eleventh dan. It appears to me like the joke in the movie mockumentary "This is Spinal Tap". The guitarist Nigel talks about how other guitar amplifiers' volume knob only goes up to ten, but the Marshall amplifier goes up to eleven.
And the most critical part of self defense, if you are forced into a situation from which you absolutely cannot escape, you must become ruthless. Nobody likes to hear it, but if your very life is being threatened, you must be willing to cause grievous harm. Nobody wants to, and hopefully you won't have to, but if your attacker believes it, they might reconsider. My sensei always shared the story of a student who was attacked walking to her dorm, and punched her attacker. She was 5'3" and barely 100 lbs, but a single punch with a strong kiai was enough to make her attacker flee.
Great, I Practice Wing Chun and I like the way you use your Karate for street. My Sihing (big brother) teached us,,close distance is the best thing you can have in a Streetfight"👍 Greetings from germany
Interesting Jesse. I can see the relevance of distance training to real life combat situations, but not connecting it to sport. In all my years of Karate and Tae Known Do, no teacher ever covered the niceties of distance with regard to sparring. Training in this area needs to be specific and real life oriented. Relating your techniques to applications is excellent. You've shown me yet another application for the opening of Kanku dai! So thanks! As for the back to the wall scenario, I use a very similar technique. I prefer to use a less lethal method involving push-pull of his head to one side instead of a dangerous neck crank. It has the same effect but is less likely to get you arrested and charged with manslaughter!
I think my meaning was very clear. I started my training in 1979 and perhaps somewhere along the way, SOME people have learned a thing or two. Things change over time. Also, if your focus is all about sport then perhaps it's unsurprising that some people like yourself have more knowledge. I reiterate, that's not been MY experience. Hopefully, I made myself clear enough.
Great advice Sensei, I am 66 with 25 yrs of martial arts training behind me, 6 in Wing Chun and almost 20yrs in TKD. earning a 3rd dan, Unfortunately, I got a pretty serious illness and had to stop training at around 46yrs old. I am now in great health and a month ago I started daily yoga that I learned in India and Shotokan, as a white belt at a great local club. At my age, a long fight is out of the question and I believe its best for me to finish a situation quickly with a response that suits the severity of the attack! For me its a knockout punch followed by a powerful sidekick to the midsection, if my life is threatened the punch would change to a leopards paw punch to the throat! As I believe Bruce Lee said, I do not fear the man who practices thousands of kicks, I fear the man who has practised one kick, thousands of times! That's my street defence position! Thanks for posting your great videos, I learn something from all of them and love your enthusiasm for the martial arts, it's infectious
I think karate has great benefits in mma and street fighting. I did karate for a long time and started out in it. You do need to learn some boxing because karate training really lacks head movement and defense and most people head hunt in a street fight. Also the first block when someone throws a haymaker is great. Only thing is you need to be aware of that he will turn that haymaker into a headlock.
@@kbanghart I myself think a straight elbow to the face while stepping in is the best option but you have to do what works for you and train it with real intent.
Good point. Also, if you know the original Fujian arts that Karate descended from, their proper body dynamics of "Float, Spit, Sink, Swallow" are clearly exemplified in western boxing dynamics, so that, by studying boxing, Karateka can re-introduce principles lost over the generations.
@@CloakandDaggersPapa You are right, however karate lacks modern defensive techniques. Like defending boxing punches to the head, defending muay thai style legkicks and takedown defense.
Good advice, I have decades of martial arts behind me at 66yrs of age, Wing Chun, TKD and currently Shotokan. I only had to defend myself on the street once, it was in Spain where I was on holiday with my girlfriend and got attacked from behind by two drunken Dutchmen, no idea why! They knocked me to the floor and started to kick me. I had to get out of that position so I did a series of backward rolls and created distance allowing me to stand up. One of them ran at me with his arm out to his side and fist clenched ready to swing a haymaker, I thought great, come closer, as he reached the right distance i used a wing Chun move , walking forward doing a half circle with my step to get inside his attack and then, at the same time bocking his punch with my left hand tan sau (inner to outer open hand block} whilst at the same time again, punching hard with the right hand putting an upward twist into the punch using a vertical fist using the bottom 3 knuckles (A twist that seems to be forgotten in modern Wing Chun!). He stopped dead and started running backwards and fell, as he sat up a swelling the size of an egg appeared on his cheekbone where the twist punch landed and I suspect it was broken! Seeing this his mate ran at me from a distance of about 5 yards, I just waited and caught him with a spinning side kick to his ribs, fight finished with a combination of Wing Chun and TKD!
The haymaker defense is very much like what I was taught in a local mma self defense class. The only difference is we were taught to yield the right hand or forearm movement (closest to neck) as a hard strike to the side of the neck before pulling the head down for the knee strike, and then push them aside rather than the roll/throw which is taught later as a more advanced finish. This is an awesome presentation of the effective, practical deployment of Karate technique and principles. Good job.
My Sensei always said, he was Japanese, if you are attacked, the attacker should be neutralised in just a few seconds, without harming the attacker seriously, just buying you time to get away. Thankfully, in my 40 + years of being a practitioner, I have never had to use my Karate on the street. If you use situational awareness, read situations, see a threat, are able to confidently talk politely to people, and you have a good pair of running shoes, the possibility of ending up in a street fight is dramatically reduced. Stay sharp and stay away. 🤚🏻🙏🏻🏃🏽♀️🥋
Frank Andre Holmestrand:My Sensei always says ,"Karate is successful if you never get to do it ".Because unless you need defense karate is not used and if there are no attackers there is no need for defense only
That was really useful, ill try to teach these ideas in my next karate class. My students often ask me about the usefullness of the kata, now i can explain that they arent meant for sparring, rather they were designed for real life situations!
Excellent video Jesse. Thank for being so clear by explaining this techniques. You are rigth, both sports and traditional karate are important to survive a street fight, and more importanly, "karate nisen tenashi" (karate don't attack first), I apologize cause my english is not that good. Greettings from Chile...=)
Started laughing during this video out of joy and nerdiness because I have that first technique (tai guruma) for my next belt (2nd dan in ju-jutsu) with the haymaker and knee to the groin/stomach and everything. I can even point it out in our book. 😂 Enjoyed this very much and hope/wish to see more of this in the future. 😊
Excellent video, covering 3 very common types of street attacks, and featuring interestings oyos from known katas (Heian Nidan/Yondan, the always mysterious start of Kanku Dai). The last one is 99% the same in Nijushiho (Niseishi for non shotokan ptactitioners) Keep up the great work!
Hello Jesse, I studied a little Karate so many years ago ... I wish someone like you had been my instructor (sensei?) then. Your enthusiasm, knowledge and relaxed manner are a perfect mix. Many thanks for great videos.
Thank You Sensei Jesse I Am Bullied / Insulted By My Old Friend Everyday My Sensei Told Me To Avoid But Sometimes We Should Not Avoid . Yes Karate Is For Self Defense But We Can not Run Away From Our Problem Thanks Sensei Jesse These Techniques Will Help Me THANK YOU
I’m training for my Black Belt in Hapkido but I’m applying your Karate Techniques to my arsenal keep the videos coming it’s always good to learn more than one style
When u see Kata u feel this are dance form with no sparring but this are some deadliest techniques which need to be arrange properly to form massive damage style. Well done Jesse Love From India
Thank you so much for this video. As a relatively new student, this really helped me see how karate can be used in self-defense unlike many ways I've been taught that include complicated responses to a simple karate middle punch. Loved how you linked it to kata!
I really enjoy your educational videos & everything you teach is super insightful. Unfortunately my daughter had to resort to using her skills a few years back. While at a get together this older boy was being a total bully, physically & verbally, to all the younger kids including my daughter. She repeatedly told him to back off and walked away several times. I even asked his parents to please control their son. As it did not stop I decided it was time to leave so as we were walking away saying our goodbyes to all he decided it was "his time to act". He shoved my daughter very hard & she almost fell to the ground. Her reaction was so fast! She was able keep her balance and taught this boy a very painful lesson. She then advised him it was in his best interest not to cross her path ever again and change his ways. To this day if he sees her he turns around and walks away.
Interesting. There are many of these sequences, and so this brought back memories... in Kyokushin, doing Gohon/Sanbon, the one I recall is stepping to the outside of the "haymaker." Now you are standing with your chest parallel to his outstretched arm, grabbing with your outside hand (i.e., left if the haymaker is a right), then twisting your hips to square up while delivering an elbow to the face with your inside arm. Meanwhile the momentum of the outstretched punch is used to straighten the attacker's arm, as your elbow striking arm now comes down to pull his arm tight to an elbow lock, and your outside fist or forearm strikes his elbow into hyperextension as your inside hand pulls his arm toward you (i.e., you are bending his elbow backwards around the "pole" of your upright outside arm). This will either make the person fall forward or lurch away, exposing their rear leg... and so you stutter step back, lift your inside leg up and kick down (or low side kick) to the knee, smashing it. I certainly can see this being executed... we sure had to drill it enough... but the general problem and weakness with all of these pre-planned sequences is: humans don't always react or move how you anticipated, especially if they are struck and feel pain.... 🤔 Stepping inside seems less complicated... but slightly more risky, especially with a large and strong person. I can see transitioning to wrist control after your elbow strike, turning toward his punching arm and torquing his hand, wrist and elbow until he naturally falls. Then stomp on him... (and run away... of course... 😏 maybe... of course....) I always wonder if these drilled patterns really work... I am old now, and I have been in a few fights, but they have never gone the way I think they will go. Most fights either end with one or two sudden strikes (and capitulation), or are dragged out into sloppy grappling and volumes of messy punches and squirming out of sloppy submission attempts... until someone intervenes and breaks up the mayhem. Anyway, thanks for the video and thoughts. Turning theory into pragmatism is the Big Challenge of most martial arts, it seems. But it was enjoyable to remember some Kyokushin in the dojo... when I was young and less fat. 😆
PS... the strangest thing is... you have an accent, and it sounds so familiar, but something is "off" about it... it sounds like Norsk, but it is not, because I am and it is not that... are you a Dane? 🤔 ...I would look it up, but it is fun to guess.
I'm actually an aikido practicioner and I recnognised a little bit of aikido in first and second demostration. But, the gyaku tzuki from begining of the video, is one of the most effective techniques to end the fight.
About the first 10 seconds of the video this is how most people think martial arts work in the street. About the video it was perfect and you explain the moves from kata if possible do more videos like this one👍
I just noticed that there are links on Wikipedia under "Gichin Funakoshi" where one can view his books 1922 To-te Ryukyu Kenpo, 1925 Karate Jutsu, and 1935 Karate-Do Kyohan. These are invaluable study tools for anyone whose line is descended from Funakoshi or his instructors Anko Itosu, Anko Asato, and Matsumura Sokon. That includes almost every modern "style" except Goju-ryu and Uechi-ryu, and some of their descendants. It also includes the lines of Tae Kwon Do descended from Tang Soo Do before the modern era (early Chung Do Kwan for example).
First off thank you for all your knowledge as always Jessie and secondly i just wanted to say that i noticed the improvement in the animation text's on the kanjis, beatiful quality brother, keep it up, Osu!
Hey Jesse thanks for the video. I think I will bring it in to my lesson today actually. The moves you showed is from Hein Yondan, Kanku Dai, also end of Heian Yondan. I never saw the beginning of those katas used quite like you showed it. Good on ya bro. Oss
I’m taking American Kenpo because they have modernized and updated techniques to fit situations like these. I think all martial arts are effective but I like the kenpo style the best.
I just found out about u a week ago. Really like your videos, brief and clear. I am very beginner of karate. I have watched your videos for inspiration . Thank you !
@@KARATEbyJesse street knife defense techniques and countering attacks, karate loks, and do you remember ur 10 low kicks vedios. I also want vedios like that
There is one technique in Taichi which uses both hands hitting the head of opponent. The additional move is that do it with 2 fists and both thumb pointing at each other. So instead of the fist hittjng, it is 2 thumbs hitting the temple.
The first video I saw for you, you said karate is a combination of your experiences in your karate style, other karate Styles, or even another system. And that is when I realized the freedom in the karate basics, and I like if you could Emphasize this more. Now when I train my basics I don't imagine an attak rather I concentrate on perfecting the technique.
Your explanations are always awesome😃👌 And by the way, in case of the haymaker, grabbing the opponents arm and throwing him away would be more fun😜(but less effective) 😂

this man is the best no lie he can teach us how to defense urself and some other techniques really helpful

Great to hear! Thanks for chiming in 😁👍
Not sure what you mean with that comment. I teach karate and muay thai and all I seem to ever talk about for sparring is controlling distance. :P

"Stay sharp and stay away." I will take this in my mind. Many thanks.
Jesse's videos are all excellent, but in my opinion this is one of his best ones.
Finally somebody did it....
Please make more videos related to this topic
Absolutely. Anything specific you want to see?

I'm actually an aikido practicioner and I recnognised a little bit of aikido in first and second demostration. But, the gyaku tzuki from begining of the video, is one of the most effective techniques to end the fight.
About the first 10 seconds of the video this is how most people think martial arts work in the street. About the video it was perfect and you explain the moves from kata if possible do more videos like this one👍
awesome! good morning from Brazil!
Good morning! Obrigado for watching 👍
Your videos are so good that i think about starting to learn karate....in my 31 years!!!
Do it! 😄
Nice techniques Jesse
If you really want to survive a street fight, just be Jesse. No one could possibly want to hurt this guy. He’s too nice
Love it. I have a Shaolin kung fu background and I recognize a lot of these techniques from crane forms.
I.m not a massive fan of karate as I know it but this guy puts a different slant on it completely
really enjoyed this video. Keep them coming :)
I just noticed that there are links on Wikipedia under "Gichin Funakoshi" where one can view his books 1922 To-te Ryukyu Kenpo, 1925 Karate Jutsu, and 1935 Karate-Do Kyohan. These are invaluable study tools for anyone whose line is descended from Funakoshi or his instructors Anko Itosu, Anko Asato, and Matsumura Sokon. That includes almost every modern "style" except Goju-ryu and Uechi-ryu, and some of their descendants. It also includes the lines of Tae Kwon Do descended from Tang Soo Do before the modern era (early Chung Do Kwan for example).
A very good video indeed!
Bra instruktioner och tips&trix....
4:54 reminds me of the old Japanese saying, " beneath the sword is hell; one step closer lies paradise".
One of my favorite samurai sayings
First off thank you for all your knowledge as always Jessie and secondly i just wanted to say that i noticed the improvement in the animation text's on the kanjis, beatiful quality brother, keep it up, Osu!
Hey Jesse thanks for the video. I think I will bring it in to my lesson today actually. The moves you showed is from Hein Yondan, Kanku Dai, also end of Heian Yondan. I never saw the beginning of those katas used quite like you showed it. Good on ya bro. Oss
Good stuff Jackson
love your vids, so much helping and teaching
I’m taking American Kenpo because they have modernized and updated techniques to fit situations like these. I think all martial arts are effective but I like the kenpo style the best.

Great video!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for adding the crane kick!!!!!!!!!!!!! As you usually say "have fun".
I love see your videos. I understand everything you say. Thanks for your explanation and your pronunciation cause I'm from a Spanish country lenguage
Great video .
There is one technique in Taichi which uses both hands hitting the head of opponent. The additional move is that do it with 2 fists and both thumb pointing at each other. So instead of the fist hittjng, it is 2 thumbs hitting the temple.
Pinan yonthan ..kanku dai...seipei... super sensei🎉
The first video I saw for you, you said karate is a combination of your experiences in your karate style, other karate Styles, or even another system.
And that is when I realized the freedom in the karate basics, and I like if you could Emphasize this more.
Now when I train my basics I don't imagine an attak rather I concentrate on perfecting the technique.
make sure to make a series man, add other attacks people might attack you with . u look like your straight outta cobra kai
Wonderful video..
Nice. Good to see that Katas are not useless after all.
Your explanations are always awesome😃👌
And by the way, in case of the haymaker, grabbing the opponents arm and throwing him away would be more fun😜(but less effective) 😂
The options are endless! 😄
Yess! 💪
But nothing better than restomping the groin🥜😆
I really liked the wall defense example. We train wall defense in my TKD dojang, but I have never seen that combo used before!
