I can say that the inside of a Japanese Karate Dojo is beautiful. Also their customs are vastly different than in the dojo that I remember the most. That is the one in the states where I along with my brother learned Kenpo Karate at Tracy's Karate Studio. This was many decades ago and we have gotten out of shape.
In my karate school, I had an instructor that always nitpicked me on everything! My kata (forms) my sparring. It got on my nerves, I thought he hated me. (I was only 19 at the time and didn't know any better.) Then somebody told me I was his favorite student, he always praised me to other people.
Yes, I remember my Sensei getting meaner and meaner but also noticed he was very kind to inconsistent or undermotivated students.
Awesome! That’s exactly what I meant. We need to learn to value criticism for what it is, instead of seeing it as negative. Easier said than done 😄
Yeah, love is driving you to be the best you that you're capable of. Had a similar experience myself. Peace.
@@KARATEbyJesse Not only to learn to accept criticism in a positive manner but to be willing, actually habitually, to re-examine yourself. I've found that 'failure' is a profoundly effective teacher. :)
When we first started, our Sensei often picked the people he saw with potential as dummies.
Thank you so much for collaborating! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!
just wondering what happen to your lips in this video Sensei?
I had thought my Sensei hated me. He never praised any student. He was always critical.
Eventually, my Sensei started having me demonstrate techniques in front of the entire class, often with him criticizing my technique. It finally dawned on me that he was impressed enough with me, as a student, that he was using me as the example to other students of what they could achieve.
It is always a privilege and honour to be the crash-test-dummy for sensei in any demonstration.
@@warrickdawes7900 yeah... a painful honor, but an honor indeed
It was exactly the same for me. Also if you where taken in front of the class for demonstration, it was an honor, that everybody made just train harder to be the one in front of class next time.
It didn't matter, if he criticized you or whatever. just that your sensei called you to him to demonstrate something was a great motivation for all of us.
IN THAT CASE YOU SHOULD BETTER HOW TO DO UKEMI PROPERTLY XD
Well, that's one interpretation I suppose.
About 30 years ago, after training for 15 years, my sensei told me I was ‘very good’. It took me many more years of training to realize that it was the first time I deserved that comment. Sensei should only give praise when it can be given honestly.
Jesse, you are doing well with this channel and exemplify the true “do”. Very good.
Arigato Jesse.
Had he not ever heard of constructive criticism, or as you imply, his ego always got in the way?
31 years of Karate training here, I learned a lot with this video!
Fantastic!! Always more to learn 👍
When i was a child, I attended a dojo which we were told was run in a very traditional Japanese style.
It wasn't until watching this video that I realised how true that was.
We even had sensei who seemed not to know any words that sounded complimentary, and would continually tell us how to do better, and not how well we were already doing.
Great stuff :). This is why i love Tradition Martial Arts
Dojo etiquette is the very first thing I teach my students
At the risk of sounding like a keener, Dojo etiquette is a big deal for me. I try to do everything listed in the video (I learned a few things I need to make a habit which is nice.) and I think this comes from being ex-military. It drives me nuts when I see students talking while Sensei is talking. I get goofing around and keeping some training segments fun but when Sensei or someone else is speaking I believe people need to show respect and keep quiet till they are done. Thats my largest beef when it comes to this subject.
Great video Jesse!
It drivea me nuts too!
What MOS and Branch bro? I was 11B US Army Infantry
Drew Dailey you serve USA military?
neldot how does he pull down the tatami?
neldot um no. You just deleted your previous comment
When I first got to Okinawa I went to a school with a senior student from that school that my Sensei in the US introduced me to. The Sensei said nothing. He then demonstrated a punch from a stance that changed position. I just did that over and over every day for weeks before he even looked at me. Then he gave me another and again I worked and worked.
I told my 13 year old niece that you said “hie” and she was as red as a cherry 🍒. She had a crush on you for 2 years now. I’ve been laughing 😂 all day because I think it’s hilarious 😂. She turns completely red every time she sees one of your videos Sensei. Haa haa 😂
Seiza = on the knees and sitting down legs crossed = Agura
Or Anza.
Thank you for this video, Sensei. This inside view of a traditional dojo is interesting and educational! I love it!
As a new student of Isshyn-Ryu Karate, I appreciate all of this advice. I hate feeling like I’m disrespecting this amazing art whenever I show up for class. Definitely want to continue making my sensei proud.
BTW. Thanks for videos like this. I share them on our club page, as it saves me talking time explaining all this. On another note, I've been doing this for many years and sometimes I watch your videos because your enthusiasm is infectious.
Two of my most favorite Karate Senseis (Sensei Seth is also a part of the favorites list) are collaborating together! How splendid! I cannot believe I have not seen this video before, even though I have followed both of you since the beginning of the pandemic.
Sensei Jesse and Sensei Yusuke, I thank you both for this great dojo etiquette instructional video. It is especially helpful to me right now because I decided to come back to practicing Karate after 20 years of non-practice, and I did so in big part because of the inspiration I have received from following your UA-cam and other social media accounts for over a year now, and I sincerely thank you for this! The Karate style I have chosen to practice is Goju Shin Ryu (essentially traditional Okinawan Goju Ryu style at the core of it with elements from Shotkan and Aikido added to the curriculum of the senior belt levels), and nearly all of the rules discussed in the video apply at the dojo that I attend. This is most helpful! I feel like I am learning a lot of Japanese terms and customs while at the dojo.
Very informative indeed, I've always loved the traditional Japanese Dojo etiquette.
Thanks for posting this, always great to impart education. Much respect and appreciation.
This is something I was waiting for, thanks 💛
Your videos are routinely so good Jesse. This one is important too!
This is so good. My two favourite karateka together. I'm so happy that you know each other and are such good friends. Thank you both for your time. 🥋🇯🇵🥋
I'm from Mexico and when I was little my sensei, had went to train in Okinawa for several years and when he came back, he teaches you like if you're in Okinawa or Japan. All that was taught today in this video, my teacher would do step by step with the outmost respect.
I learned very well from him because I still remember all the ways how to enter a dojo and how to behave which was also part of the training.
Thank you for the very thought provoking information you both have provided. I'm a fan of both of your videos and I just wanted to say that I appreciate both of your gentlemen insights on martial arts.
Great video as always Jesse San. I really appreciate you covering the details of proper Japanese dojo etiquette. I find it much more formal than Okinawan etiquette, although there are some similarities. Also I’m really enjoying the more frequent uploads😎🥋
Thank you. This is a very informative video. I enjoy the content both of you put out. All the best to you.
This is great stuff, especially as guests. Its literally someone elses house and need to respect that.
Amazing video, thanks for sharing Jesse Sensei
Arigato
Once again thank you learning every day from you
Thank you so much for this episode Sensei Jesse Enkamp and Sensei Yusuke Nagano i've learned a lot from this episode Sensei Hoping for many more episodes like this.. arigatou gozaimasu..
Excellent video.
Thanks so much for enhancing our understanding of the Dojo etiquette..
Glad to see you guys together.. I am great fan of Nagano sensei's video's also.. Have been practicing his tips and exercises for powerful kicks.. It really worked 😀❤️❤️❤️
Arigatou gozaimasu Sensei Jesse, for your great videos!!! 🥋🇧🇷 Muito obrigada Sensei Jesse por seus excelentes vídeos!! Oss!!
Sensei, it`s not any different in Taekwondo, I think respect and tradition should be applied everywhere, still today and always. Arigatô!
And not only in martial arts; there is room for civility and politeness and respect in all life's encounters.
Thanks, learned a lot. Particularly liked the walking through the line of vision of seniors. 👍
What a useful information, thanks both of you senseis.
Thank you Jesse for sharing these valuable lessons and traditions of the Japanese culture and how to behave in a Dojo.
Great video Jesse. Thanks very much.
Thank you Jeese!
I have a humble belt in karate but there are too many things that some of us don't know, and it's great to know it from the roots, and with a proper explanation 🙏!
Fabulous video sensei jesse that's why i love your channel....
Fantastic video and very impressed with the content. It's great to learn the Japanese karate culture 👌
Beautiful video Jesse!
Arigato Sensei Jesse you help me a lot
Great to hear! 😄
In my Korean dojo (Tang Soo Do) students and instructors had to bow to the Korean flag and American flag. This was to show respect.
Tanh soo do is a joke
@@SifuSmoFlatEarth
Takes one to know one
At my place we bow to the American flag WKSA/ World Kuk Sool Association flag Grandmaster/ Kuk Sa Nim highest rank also known as Ju Im Khang Jahng Nim Kyo Sa Nim 1st degree black belt sorry I don’t know how to spell it and if it is the advanced class a black stripe calls out Do Boh Nim
@@SifuSmoFlatEarth I will argue differently. I think it is a great martial art.
It takes some practice to get all that in your brain, but all these customs together have a certain beauty and create an atmosphere of respect and honor. I appreciate my time at dojo so much.
Great video Jesse. Many of the tips are forgotten even by some black belts. Really good to see this very detailed explanation. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the video Jesse. This is making karate even more genuin. The tradition and etiquette som be followed more. 🙂
Very good video Sensei. Thank you very much for your wisdom.
I really enjoy the contents of your videos 👍👍👍👍 thank you for the awesome work!
Glad you liked it! 😄
Great video and lessons, thank you both.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful video.
That is a really nice looking Dojo!
Super helpful video! Thank you!
Fantastic tutorial! Thank you. :)
Arigato gozaimasu for your insights and helpful explanations.
Very good Video! Thanks for this lesson!!! Arigato gosai mass!
Both of you are just amazing, I I am really looking forward to seeing you one day.
Great video, thank you for it. These rules should be respected all over the world, not just in Japan and every sensei and sempai should follow that the students adhere to it.
Thank you very much for this video!!! It is very good to hear all the rules and mistakes together during one video!
And I am happy to see that we are doing everything right and correct in our Aikido dojo!!! 🥳🥳
Domo Arigato Gozaimasu 🙇♂
Jesse, I really enjoy your videos. I find them very informative, enjoyable and sometimes maybe a little challenging; but it is my humble opinion that while the Japanese may have improved Te in some respects they've just made other aspects unnecessarily complicated and formal. I believe that any serious practitioner/adherent/traveler of a martial discipline becomes more respectful through the process of their development.
Many thanks to Master Nagano for sharing his time. Doesn't hurt to remind people to be nice and Master Nagano did it very gracefully. I wouldn't even mind if he were to call me 'gaijin'. :) Many thanks to you also, Jesse. Be well.
Great introduction, thank you!👍😊
Great video, thanks for sharing!
I have not had a chance to train in Japan yet. What an enjoyable video, thank you for making this.
All of this is about showing respect (obvs) - but not just to the people around you, but also the space
Each dojo has its own Kami - and it is to the spirit both your behaviour and practice is shown
If you think about it psychologically, it makes training there more pleasant when you show respect
Love it guys!
The vast majority of what you explained I already do in my teachings for the past 25 years. However, there are a few things that I learned from this video! Seeing that most westerners don't understand these basic training principles, I will share this video will all my students to ensure that they are taking their training to the next level. Even though, I explain these mannerisms "all the time", seeing someone else other than myself explain this fortunately will sink into their mind much better. I always do my best to preserve traditional karate in my own dojo. Thank you for this video!
Thank you very much sensei Jesse for sharing this valuable video.. Two Liones together.. Oss!! Arigato Gosaimasu.. 🙏🙏
I'm glad this collaboration finally occured!
Awesome
Beautiful, thank you both
Great video, thank you both
Very informative! Many thanks :)
i train in a traditional japanese karate dojo and this is more or less on point
HAHAHA I wasn't ready for 11:33!!! Great video!!
Liked the crunch sounds in the eating subject made me chuckle to.
It's all about discipline, respect, focus and etc. Long live Sensei Enkamp and Sensei Nagano.🙏👊🥋
I found this video fun and relatable as a Finn.
Many similarities in mindset and in kind of "unwritten" rules.
Ofcourse If you are foreigner visiting here in our home or where ever we dont judge you.
But If you take The effort to check some and live by it we Love you 😄🥰
Greetings from Finland
Great content..so many variations..not just kicks and punches 👍💪🥰
Awesome lesson and thank yous for sharing your video ❤❤👍👍
Thank you for this video. Lots of good things to know.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice one Jesse sensei!!! 👌👌😙
Thanks Jesse! Quite a few things I didn't know.
Nice! Always fun to learn new stuff 😄👍
Even if you are not into martial arts I think this is great for teaching good manners . Both learn so much from both of these gentleman. That was epic when Jesse was striking the poses when discussing sitting etiquette ;)
Thanks. This goes straight on my Facebook page! :)
Oh Jesse you have Exelently made this video
Sounds like a nice environment. Thanks from Texas.
What you should say when you see your senpai
Notice me senpaaai
YES
goodluck
That’s the cringiest thing to say to a senpai
I need to show this to my children. They put their bags and jacket everywhere before the training. Thanks for sharing.
Am I the only one who reads all of Jesse's comments in his accent?? Love the videos, just subscribed. You make hard work exciting!!
Haha that’s funny! Thanks 😄👊
Wow, extremely interesting and makes perfect sense.
I had to leave shorin-ryu when I was younger, and now that I'm an adult with money and a job, I've been searching for a new dojo to attend and watching your videos to tide me over until I'm able to. Judging by memory, my dojo adhered to pretty much all of these traditions. I get why some people think they're a bit much, but it's a really strong way to keep the right mindset while training, and it's really cool to be sharing a common experience that others have had for decades or centuries with martial arts. I can't wait to get back into it
In addition to order and respect, the sitting rules have to do with safety. In karate or judo clubs, the "kumite" normally includes a certain number of people, who take shifts in practicing. In addition, during the "shiai", two people compete and the remaining athletes sit around the "dojo" (tatami). If you sit in a loose manner, you may hurt yourself or the practicing/competing athletes more easily.
I've always loved the ediquet in golf and even baseball, so this is very cool.
"So woven into the texture of the culture". What an interesting sentence. I've never thought of cultures in terms of texture. Why am I geeking out about this?
Enkamp-sensei! I've just discovered your chanel and this video was very relaxing and interesting. Which karate style are you practicing? I've been practicing Viet Vo Dao for 9 years and now I've started aikido a year ago and might go for Goju Ryu 😊
Love from France 🙏
we do karate. We also get violin lessons from our teacher who is in Hong Kong. She rarely praises, mostly corrects us. I respect her and the culture which she originates from. We're from India and grew up in UK ourselves so we understand the difference in cultures
again!!!! a lot of westerners need to watch this !!!! great information
My Sifu shared this with our group and I think it is totally on-point and relevant to most styles and learning environments. It all basically comes down to not being a dick and showing respect to those who have gone before you and done the hard yards and therefore have earned that respect regardless of their age, the colour of their belt or their sex. Most the people I train with are far younger but are so much better than me by a long way, it's their ability, and persistence, their openness and willingness to share that helps me hold them in high regard. They may not have the life experience I do, but their abilities on the Matt means they deserve all the respect they get and more.
and that dojo you're in is very beautiful i like the colours
Amen 🙏 to respect and humility.
We allow students to wear T shirts in class during the summer. However, they are required to wear the full uniform (dobok because it's taekwondo) during testing.
Enforce those rules! Because keeping to strict rules is erm a err.
Is the dobok like a Vneck top or is it open like a typical karate or judo dogi?
I studied TKD as a kid in the 90s and tried again in the 2000s the uniform was so different.
Thanks for saving ReiShiki, Sensei Jesse. Greetings from Kawaishi Ryu Ju-Jutsu in Salta, Argentina
