- Learn how to breathe correctly in Karate from Jesse Enkamp by using your diaphragm instead of your chest. This belly breathing helps you relax, as opposed to stressed chest breathing. Apply this breathing in kata and kumite. Visit www.karatebyjes... to learn more.
remember this is why children have a great source of energy as they breath with their belly...
thank you Sensei....
Prasant Saikia Absolutely, it's essential 🙏
This is very true, I learn that same kind of diaphragmatic breathing years ago when I was learning to sing and also some years before that when I learnt to play the harmonica. Martial arts are really involved in everything. Excellent video
yay got a black belt finally today.
nice!!
That is really good.
I'm 2 years late but congratulations!
you a 2nd dan now?
Congrats , very late but ok 😂😂😂 btw um 13 and I have the brown belt I began karate when I was 3 😌😏
You look so good in your gi, I have to get myself a seishin.
My exam didn't go well, I was eager to practice karate (doing karate alone is the best way to practice it for me) Thank God I did karate today, I am relaxing now even after an exam not going well, after listening to the recitation of my religion's holy book (It is important for me) and after practising karate I finally laid my stress to rest. BTW, LOVE YOUR CONTENT.
Thank you thank you thank you! I started my karate journey now and I wanna be good in it, and I learn everything for it
All your videos are spectacular. Thanks Jesse!
I needed this!
I try but I often seem to have a problem with proper breathing>.<
My sensei told me it was a little harder for women but I don't know if it's true.
Nevertheless, I'm working on it.
Thanks a lot Jesse sensei !! I really needed this ! Always helping me to improve more and and more !
Definitely a lesson we can all practice daily!
I'm in green belt but I can do breathing properly but now I can do it with your help. Thank you😊
Haha😂 now I know why I'm almost passing out during kata😅! Thank You, I didn't know that this type of breathing is used in karate too🥋👍🏻💪🏻!
Thank you Sensei. You are a huge inspiration for me.
Yes this is very important and pushing down while doing your breathing this way will also help you with power because it helps you push your body down through the earth (imagery) and as you have said before your power partly anyway will come from low.
Average person usually doesn't do this even when not under stress, which actually elevates their stress levels. It's best to make this a common practice and overwrite the shallow breathing altogether. Whether running, fighting, sitting or relaxing, belly breathing is better.
I like the way you explain it, Sensei... Simple and usefull... Osu !!!
Very good explanation, Jesse San!
Great video! Thanks so much for the tip!
CanadianArcticRadio Awesome! My pleasure 😊
Always a great talker
thank you man .finaly i knew how to breathe
Thank you soo much friend.... 😊
First of all thank you very much for all your videos. I really use them and introduce them to my students. Even the smallest of 4 year. Never to early to do it right. I have just a question Sensei. You explain us that in Karate the breathing has to come from the lower part of the diaphragma but will this not expand your core muscles and make the muscle of your back weaker? I use to practice also Pilates and the teacher always tell us to pull the stomach and breath with the chest. Thank you in advance for your time. And thanks again for your videos.
andrea de maria Good question! In pilates you strive to expand and elongate your spine. Although they share some similarities, it's not the same biomechanical principle in this case.
OK i will try to include yours in my training just to see the effects on me first. And then take it to my kids.
Thank you very much Sensei. I know that you are in Luxembourg end of next month. I'm not sure that I can make it to be there but for sure I will send you some of my students. Thanks once again. Have a nice wkend
andrea de maria Thank you very much! 😊 I'm looking forward to meeting your students in Luxembourg soon
You're the best sensei!
One of the pros of Zazen it s that helps learn this kind of breathing.
Ur content is really beneficial
Thank you Jesse E. Sensei......Good Stuff
Live2win Uncle E. Cheers! 😊
Jesse-san, how do you time your breathing with your techniques, & do you have any advice on the correct sound to make?
Thanks sensei
To achieve diaphragm breathing I suggest taking a deep breath (inhale)and then holding ones breath (stop exhale) in doing kata and try to keep that through the whole kata and at the same time using the hara (abdomens) contraction in doing the techniques...in that way you will be compelled to use diaphragm breathing to finish the kata ...Oss.
Do you mean do the whole kata in one breath??
That's the real-life Hamon.
I don't if you would ever read my comment, but I am struggling to find the right breathing technique while performing karate. I find myself out of breath even if I do it slowly (it is not a healthy condition 'cause it occurs only when I practice karate, never with other sport). I do think that trying to exhale properly, I tend to stay in a tension state with my body, and that cuts the time for inhalation. I hope you could give advices/exercises to do in order to help me improve. Oss!
Well done!
Please make a video of how to give sweep your opponent
I’m not 100% sold on this.
To breathe in to your belly will relax the diaphragm and expand the core muscles, whereas to breathe in to your lungs your rib cage will expand meaning the diaphragm does too. I do agree you shouldn’t breath with your shoulders but would be inclined to look to make the rib cage expand horizontally and up.
Thoughts?
I really like your videos :)
Sassade gamer Thanks!
Thanks sensei,,
thnks jesse
I literally typed in 'How to breathe in karate' and this comes out... Exactly
I breathe both with my Belly and "Throat/Chest/Nose", or neither. Thank You. I'm Asperger.
this really work for BJJ too Thank you xD
I lost my breath so bad last time I practiced kumite and started breathing so loud (without even noticing) that I looked ridiculous to others around me... SO FRUSTRATING
Danke!
Bitte!
Then how do i breath from the chest
I’ve been doing martial arts for years and nobody- nobody has taught me this, every time I’m going to practice I end up suffocating every time I exercise. And it’s even worse during sparring.
Funny fact: I was searching for Babymetal videos and UA-cam put this video in the search results. Babymetal has a song called Karate, but this video is not related to Babymetal at all. :-) Silly UA-cam.
I breathe through my nose keeps me relaxed
How do you call it? Moso ?
Hamon

interesting
tai chi breathing
Bachatero flipao
like si lo haces para la tarea de teatro :v
In and out...
im sorry Jesse san but i disagree with you on that one. You can breath through your chest and keep calm at the same time. Breathing through your belly creates a week point. If you get hit in the gut while inhaling like that, 99% you re gonna get KO'ed.
sardanapalos try breathing out when you get hit in the gut, that helps you withstand the bro while feeling minimum pain.
that goes without saying man..im talking about the situation you get hit while INhaling..it will hurt either way but when you re inhaling with you chest it shouldn't hurt so much as your gut stays somewhat tight..
sardanapalos
It's not that Jesse is wrong, it's that his video WAY oversimplified "karate" breathing. There are MANY ways to breath in karate, depending on your goal.
One core principle of Okinawan karate is shizentai, or natural breathing. When we are physically threatened, we naturally do a shallow breath in the upper chest. This natural constriction allows us to move our internal organs away from the unprotected lower abdomen, and closer to rib cage and protected areas. Belly breathing is important for certain types of karate training, but it is not really best for combat. Truthfully, this subject is far to big for this type of video.

This type of breathing is called Buddha breath, and yes, it is old. However, it's purpose is to cultivate feelings of peacefulness, not aggression. Hence the name "Buddha's breath." This type of breathing is important to train, but NOT a breath to train for combat.
There is more under heaven and earth than dreamt of... in any of our philosophies. Keep training.
Work on your Buddha Belly.
