Can you teach the hip movement while we are punching in choku zuki?
This was simple and accurate thank you
I'm just gonna say it this guy is awesome.
Alejandro Muchas gracias amigo! 🙏
The stick exercise is awesome! Never seen it before, thanks for the great tip!
Great! Good luck Jordan-san! :-)
I’ve learnt more watching Sensei Jessie’s videos than I ever have in any karate class I took....thank you jessie san!. We appreciate the time and effort you take for these awesome videos ...I’ve recently started getting back into karate ...a high mountain to climb still but each step forward is more than one step back .OSS!
"This hips don't lie!" 🤣
Great vid. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Apparently 40 people watched this who don't study Karate! Excellent as always Sensei Jesse.
Wow what a great video! As a beginner, my instructor constantly says use your hips use your hips. I had no idea what a hip was untill I watched this video thank you so much!
Thanks Jessie, i always try to mix your advices with my every week training at the dojo. Keep on doing this awesome videos!
Thanks Jesse, My sensei has always instructed us to use our hips when either punching or blocking. I can't wait to try the exercise using the pole.
Just Awesome stuff that can be applied to all fighting styles... YOU ROCK!!!
I use this analogy when teaching the principle. Good job, brother!
I just subscribed because this video.. This is the stuff that most senseis demand in karate but only few show the details to get improvement. Cheers!
Extra tip for those having difficulty isolating. Do not rotate the body by trying to control the position of the pelvis. Focus on the V area around the ground where the hips connect to the leg on the inner leg. Squeeze together in this area to help identify the sensation of twisting.
Keep in mind the hips are not what makes the power, they simply are a part of the engine and the point of reference. The stick helps you isolate the motion, because the hips turning like that actually makes the spine turn. That is where the power comes from. Don't focus in a direction, just focus on rotating on the axis of your own spine, by focusing on the twist through the V area of the hips/lower abdomen.
Good video all in all. Almost no one teaches anyone how to use the hips, almost everyone just says use the hips.
Although application of this mechanic is just ever so slightly different. You need a directional intent with the twist to apply force in a specific direction. So you would kind of focus the rotation forward for a punch, or to the side for a block. It's kind of hard to explain that part without visually demonstrating and even then it'd probably be hard to understand.
Clear and efficient lesson Sensei! Thank you so much ❤
Thanks, SENSEI! this exercises really help in isolating the muscles of interest
Looks like an excellent exercise.
Thanks Jesse
Great explanation and exercise! Thanks!
Thank you for that video Jesse. I always emphasize hip importance to my students. That exercise is a great way to help them understand how to use your hips. I'm going to use it at the dojo.
This is excellent explanation and on point. Awesome
Really helpful! That drum example was spot on and the stick exercise is great, I've never seen it anywhere!
That's because I made it up :-) Glad I could help!
Awesome video. I am only an orange belt and been struggling with the hip rotation. I will practice this exercise. Thanks for the awesomeness
Greetings from Puerto Rico in the Caribbean. I consider mastering the hip movement. It's just as important as learning to kick your toes in Uechi Ryu. Thanks for teaching. I keep watching the videos.
Just what I was looking for, thanks Jesse. Regards from Argentina

Congratulations for the vídeos! It's very good to see a martial artist knowing about biomechanical. I'm physic education professional in Brazil and I'm training goju-ryu karate for 2 years now. Your videos have been helping me in some details of karate.
I've known about the seminary "karate to MMA" and it's very good to see masters going throw a way that isn't just the olympic!!
Still in this way and we (me and my team) will still watching you =)
I liked ur ball technic helped me alot upload more
Karate Kid II teached us! Thank you for the reminder Jesse! :)
I'm so glad you said these hips Don't lie, at the end. That made this video a 10 out of 10 for me

You are an Amazing Teacher Jesse E. Sensei ARIGATO
I like this idea. I'm going to use it.
Excellent video
Thank you very much!
Lo que es espectacular es que lo hayáis traducido a español para mayor expansión, gran vídeo y os animo a continuar con los subtítulos
U made my day! thank you..
ossu!! Sensei , you are the best!
Dude you are the best
Hey Jesse, awesome breakdown of the hip technique. I've got a similar technique that involves a baseball batters stance. As you swing the bat, concentrate on turning your hip out with the swing.
Jesse-san, I have completed my black belt 2 months ago with my team. We went our separate ways for the summer as we always do, to return again in the fall.
However I won't be returning. I am sad to leave my true Sensei, but I just want to say that you, your videos, book (break the box which I LOVE) have inspired me to continue, when I know that I can give up freely now, where that was not possible before. thank you from the bottom of my heart.
sam d You are on the right path. Good luck! 🙏
Jesse Enkamp Thank you so much
Nice exercise
I think this will help me to increase my karate
Thanx
Great info! I'm gonna use it, thanks!
Good to hear! Have fun :-)
I always practice by using hip movement. But I never seen that stick routine you'd present it, interesting to give it a shot. Thank you my man Osu!
I wish someone would have shown me this stick exercise like 35 years ago!! :) Very awesome lesson!
Felicidades realme te tiene excelentes enseñanzas y videos
Super tips man
Thanks dude! :-)
I've literally just finished a whole karate lesson focusing on this technique alone in all stances. Nice work.
Sounds like a great lesson! :-)
That's really special training ! I'll have to give it a whirl. Im trying to improve more and more with my martial arts too!
It's a good exercise for Taekwondoins as well. I had always trouble with my hip rotation. Maybe i should try this. Many thanks! Regards from Germany :)
Going to use this excercise to warm up for golf
I've just started Karate at the age of 43! One month in and it's been harder than I anticipated, but very interesting. Wish me luck!
the best karate youtube chanel is Jesse Enkamp and Team Ki
Cool technique sensei

Excelent exercise! This applies for tennis too 🙂👌🏻
Muy bueno el video, gracias por los subtítulos en español.

Gonna try it right now
Awesome! Have fun :-)

どもうありがとうエンカムプ 先生の

This is a great illustration of one of the basic concepts/techniques that differentiates Chito-Ryu Karate from other styles, making it extremely efficient at generating power. Hip vibration is ubiquitous throughout all levels of Chito-Ryu kihon and kata, whereas most (not all) other styles emphasize hip rotation, but not vibration. Thanks for posting.😀
Interesting! Please tell me how that works, on a physiological level.
I'm far from an expert on the topic, however here's an attempt at answering your question...
Essentially, like hip rotation, hip vibration enables the body to rotate around its vertical centre line, thereby generating linear force that can be delivered through a technique. The difference is that it also involves a very rapid re-setting the hips back to the beginning position - regardless of the stance. It generates a very quick source of power from the hips with little outward motion (think Bruce Lee's 1-inch punch) while putting the hips back into the most advantageous position to immediately deliver another technique.
When done correctly, hip vibration is very effective in generating power for "push-pull" techniques (e.g. Ren-zuki, Shiko-zuki-kaeshi, Tsukami-uke), isolateral techniques (e.g. a single Mae-te-zuki or a rapid-fire series of strikes and/or blocks with the same hand), and bilateral/ryote techniques (e.g. Sayu-zuki, Kakiwake-uke, Yama-zuki).
The "belly dancer" exercise you demonstrated in the video above is one of the ways we train kyu belts to get them used to the sensation of quickly snapping the hips forward and back around the body's centre line. Ultimately, the technique is refined to focus on vibrating one hip forward and back while preventing the opposite hip from vibrating in the opposite direction - thereby making the energy of the accompanying technique more focused.
I hope this makes sense. :)
Thanks man, that's very cool. Oss!
Realy thanks...
Great teaching Jesse. You seem to be a great teacher, I always enjoy your lessons, and you are a great martial artist, much better than on first appearance. I don't know, maybe the whole "Nerd" personna, but when I hear you and watch you move I can tell you're the "real deal" as we say out here. 😊
It reminds me of what my father, my first instructor, always said, "Don't intentionally disrespect anyone, and don't allow yourself to be disrespected nor your wife, especially from other men." True. Don't mess with this "nerd", Master Enkamp Sensei!
