Im glad to see that you wear a white belt at the Kodudo class, It indicates that you are a humble person no matter if you are already a Sensei, congratulations Jesse, greetings from Mexico.

Mr. Enkamp, I know you did this over 3 years ago, but thank you! I've been studying martial arts since I was 6 years old, and have always dreamed of making a journey like this. I'm married and have two little girls now, but I'm starting to get my oldest daughter interested in karate. Because of work and having two very young children (not to mention the global pandemic), finding this video series felt like hitting the jackpot. This is the exact trip I've been wishing I could do; thank you for letting me (us!) see this through your eyes! Greatly, greatly appreciated!!

Keep the karate traditions going. That food looks good. That's interesting about the food because a majority of people in America are over eating have obesity and all these health problems with it. Load up on medication when they get old. Food is the best medicine. I would want my health whan I get old I want to keep on doing karate tell I drop that the way to go. Thanks Jesse.

Another great episode! I was privileged to visit the Okinawa Karate Kaikan soon after its opening in early 2017. The quality and workmanship of this facility is quite amazing; a wonderful celebration of karate-do. Also, fantastic that you managed to find an Isshin-ryu (“one heart school”) dojo! I had no idea about the double bone block! Another interesting feature of this unique style is its badge. The badge is known as the “Isshinryu No Megami” (一心流の女神) or “goddess of Isshinryu” (viewers are encouraged to Google it!). The badge is extremely detailed and colourful. It is also unusually large, taking up almost a quarter of the front of a practitioner's gi! The goddess is half woman and half dragon. Her left hand is open, symbolizing peace. Her right hand is closed in a trademark vertical Isshin-ryu fist, representing hard. Like the goddess, the Isshin-ryu practitioner strives to be "fierce in battle and gentle in life." Legend has it that the patch is based on a day dream Tatsuo Shimabuku had in the fifties while he was creating his style. Looking forward to next week!

About Okinawa and their life expectancy - actually, there are scientific studies about this and it follows a pattern observed in other parts of the world and this was coined the "Blue Zone Diet". Basically follows a lifestyle of low stress, moderate physical activity, high social interactions, no processed foods, and consuming almost only plants (only +-5% of total calories comes from animals and most of them come from fish).

@francisleroy6215 4 жыл бұрын

Jesse Enkamp - Okinawa is known as a blue zone...Number 1 around the world for having the highest number of seniors living, who are 100years, or older. There are a few other lifestyle rules that apply as well: 1. 90% plant based diet ( particularly sweet potatoes, rice and beans ), 2. regular light exercise, 3. healthy social relationships, 3. a consistent spiritual life...For your interest there are another 4 Blue Zones, in order of seniors over 100years - no. 2 is Sardinia ( Italy ). no. 3 is Loma Linda ( Cal. USA ). no. 4 is Nicoya Peninsula ( Costa Rica ). no. 5 is Ikaria ( Greece )...Peace...Keep up the good work...

No wonder why your KZfaq channel named as "Karate Nerd", the first video that i watched is How you apply the Gamification on your Martial arts class cause i find it interesting and good ideas when I'm planning my taekwondo class to my students. Now I've been watching your other videos like this one, you really love your martial art because you want to know the martial art tradition and it's origin. Like i said on the first video that i watched and i commented there that I'm taekwondo instructor . I find more interesting about karate and the facts you been shared on your videos. You know what? Sensie Jesse I'm going to see all your videos.
