i love the elbow. in my opinion it is the most versatile weapon in a martial artists arsenal. it is also tends to be the most underutilized.

Appreciate your candor Jesse. You are not style or system blind. You’re a martial artist. Thanks.

O how I wish I had a Karate teacher like Sensei Jesse Enkamp when i was younger

Please stop bullying your brother... Haha. Excelent work.

In Shorinryu we use the 3 types of elbow movements, you can see them In a couple of Katas :)

Thanks from the USA Sensei Jesse! I love using elbows in my kata and always loved the backwards elbow mainly because of the movies.

Very good video Jesse San. I like most the application shown with you brother. All the best for you, Tanja

Jesse Enkamp Sensei Jesse have you ever here about shudokan style ?

The elbow strike (and knee strike) are in the kata of all karate or kenpo styles originating from Okinawa. They are also common to fighting arts that don't have kata. Muay Thai easily comes to mind. Of course, modern sports styles mostly don't allow them. Some of those folks think kata useless. Some alphabets are very long; some are just jab, right, cross, and uppercut. I keep seeing "this style" beats "that style" on KZread. No, this guy beat that guy. Of course there are a lot of folks posted on KZread now who should be shown as plain stupid.

Your videos make me a karate nerd 💕 Greetings from Mexico

More videos like this Jesse! Thank you for the uploads ❤️

Excellent video, excellent didactics, Jesse. Sorry because of the question, but, according to your experience, would you recommend the practice of karate as means of self-defence? I would like to begin either with Goju Ryu or Shotokan because of that reason, along with other motivations such as curiosity and interest on the historical aspect of the art as a whole. Greetings from Venezuela, and thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Great kime! 😮

Thank you Sensei Jesse. I just had a question - in the last elbow technique you demonstrated, what did you do with your feet in the sweep? I couldn't quite see. Thanks!

Karatekas are no strangers to Elbow strikes. Muay Boran helped shape karate to become a devastating art.

chromerhodium Unfortunately, many modern Karate practitioners have no idea of neither combative applications nor biomechanics behind elbow strikes. Why? Because it doesn't score in competitions! 😂

Jesse Enkamp That is very true, Jesse-sensei! Many Karatekas just practiced to compete. That's also the reason why I think that cross training with other arts and a lot of Bunkai would help a Karateka fully utilize his/her skills in combat and self-defense.

Cool and yea brothers can be great built in ukes haha of course my brother was 8 years older so he used me 🤔😏

Hi Jesse! I'm thinking about taking up karate and I just wanted to know what karate styles don't contain any grappling or ground techniques. By that I mean that I want to learn a style that focuses on punches, elbows, knees, palms, and takedowns. Please list as many karate styles as you can if there are any that match those requirements. Thanks!

Wado ryu(kai) what I do focuses mainly on strikes. There's not a lot of throws really apart from some partner work there's few locks though but again that's just during partner work. Take downs are just sweeps

All styles have these elements because they are contained in the kata that most styles share. Most schools don't practice these elements because they focus on competition not self defense. I train wado ryu and originally it was very apparent it was the karate jujitsu hybrid it was meant to be but most schools no longer teach much of that. You can walk in to any dojo and it will be clear real quick if they do any ground work. Why not learn it though? Karate ground work is different then BJJ and I would say it isn't a waste to do both

Aung Saw Moen Yes, in a different context (self defense vs. combat sport) which changes the approach (grabbing, no gloves or rules etc). Fun fact - the ancestor of Muay Thai is called Muay Boran and heavily influenced the old-school practices of Karate
