In fact, it is not than Okinawan made a local Wing Chun, it is than Wing Chun and Karate came from the same "mother martial art" : Bai He Quan, (Crane Fist) from Foshan.

Tensho is very similar to Sil Lin Tao, several aspects in common between Goju Ryu (and Naha Te in general) with Wig Chun. I think it's due to the common roots of the Fujian White Crane Fist. With this in mind, it is interesting to reflect on how the transformation into a sport when Karate arrived in Japan distorted and deformed it.

When I first started learning Wing Chun in the 90s, my sifu explained the similarity to traditional Okinawan karate. "They are both based on the same movement patterns from White Crane, but Karate focuses more on using those principles to create powerful strikes to cause direct injury. Wing Chun focuses more on the intersection between striking and wrestling to improve position, use structure to physically move a larger opponent and deliver quick low energy strikes to vital targets.

It comes from the bubshi. It's very well documented. Shoalin monk fist ,Yong Chun and white Crain. The documents exist. Patrick mccarthy how's written about it Extensively .

Yes, for me too it is fascinating. In all fairness it is all in all the same. I guess Wing Chun was a modern version of the Crane. Like Karate was a Japanese version of some Kung Fu... It is the same remodel. When it comes down to it we all (well nearly) got 2 arms, 2 legs and 10 fingers all over the globe, so it is not that crazy to find similar technics in other places.

I really enjoyed this video for both the illustration, via bunkai of Naihanchi, of the commonality between Karate and Wing Chun, but also simply for the validation of what we have observed at my school. We provide classes in karate and also separate classes in Wing Chun and have appreciated the synergy that we have found in training in both.

It’s neat to see that Karate, which came from Okinawa, has its roots in different KungFu techniques. We can look to other martial arts for the bunkai of our katas.

It's 8:30 am and I'm drinking my morning coffee.☕️ I thought I subscribed to Kevin Lee's channel, but I hadn't!😢 Gonna remedy that! Jesse, I can tell you're mentally absorbing everything being said! You're going to be a lethal weapon in USDC 2!😂

I used to train in Wing Chun back in the 1990s, but I've been using Naihanchi Shodan (and Sanchin) as the core of my own training, for the past five years or so. So I find this video brilliant and fascinating!

I loved this Jesse and would love to see you explore your karate more through more style comparisons. Fascinating stuff. I'm teaching taiji to a group of karate sensei right now and every lesson one of them yells "It's just like what we do!". Thanks for posting this (and Taiwan would be worth a trip for you I think!)

VERY interesting video guys! Really enjoyed this video, especially how Jesse demonstrated such a perfectly executed Okinawan Karate form and how Kevin was able to perfectly disect the form by Jesse and execute its principles as Wing Chun applications. It just goes too show our martial arts traditions have the same goals and it’s really great too see two different style practitioners, coming together and exchanging techniques in such a friendly manner. Great for the martial arts communities guys, very good show, we all learned some really valuable skills!

I love how curious you remain and always open to new understanding of an art you've been involved in for most of your life. You're so fun to watch.

I've been waiting a long time for a video of Jesse talking about Wing Chun as, being a Wing Chun practitioner myself and having practiced karate, I've come to see a good amount of similarities between the two arts. Thank you so much Jesse and Kevin. It'd be great to have a more in depth video comparing Wing Chun with Karate.

Once I saw Ohtsuka the second in a Wado-Ryu seminar. His movements were not rigid karate but looked more like something that looked like Win Chun. He also always stated that there was something deep about the Naihanchi Kata.

Great to see all the things I’ve learned be explained by both people. It’s just all one art.

This is one of the reasons why I love this channel! Wonderful class showing the Chinese origins of the kata I learned as Tekki Shodan! And it's great to see both experts learning together from each other.

Another great video .. excellent demonstration of similar movements in Wing Chun and Karate and their underlying principles.

@jty1999 6 месяцев назад

I've already begun incorporating that karate foot check you showed off with Kevin a while ago in MMA and it always catches my more Muay Thai focused peers off guard when they throw leg kicks. I'm hoping I can learn Wing Chun hand trapping for the boxing side of things but it's harder with 1) 16 oz gloves and 2) the fact that boxers are taught to always retract their hands after throwing punches. Thanks for showing us cool stuff like this Jesse.

@raydrexler5868 6 месяцев назад

Awesome collaboration guys, I trained karate for years before I started Wing Chun and JKD and I immediately saw the same similarities! I’m so happy to see that I wasn’t alone in my observation. The glee with which you born approach the subject makes me so happy. Thank you, and be safe

@RoseKB22 6 месяцев назад

This is so cool! The similarities are amazing! I studied Taekwondo for about 5 or so years, but then moved to a different place and wasn't able to continue under the same instructors. My teachers teach Karate, Taekwondo, and Modern Arnis. Now that I'm in a new place I have been interested in joining another school but I can't really afford it right now. I'd love to study Wing Chun though too. I got to spar with a Wing Chun student once, and it was one of the most memorable learning experiences I've had in martial arts.

@kpitman1990 6 месяцев назад

I’ve been waiting for this subject to appear on your channel for so long, I’m so happy! I’ve been practicing Wing Chun now for almost 10 years and I was happy to hear about the things Kevin was mentioning and saying! This reminds me so much of one of the concepts you have mentioned before on your channel, I think maybe even when you were experimenting with Kevin before! You said, “No matter where you start around the base of the mountain, all paths journey towards the peak.” That mindset is one of the things that your channel has taught me that has made such a huge impact on my training. Eventually, martial concepts start overlapping and techniques start performing the same with slightly different adaptations. It’s a beautiful thing!

@timoloef 3 месяца назад

Thank you Jesse, this is the most informative video on karate that I've seen in a while. All karate teaches should watch it! By the way, lots of karate teachers say you should only make a fist at the last one or two inches right before hitting someone ... and keep the hands relaxed until that point. And the way the Wing Chun master "chopped" the attack is exactly how we practiced shoto uke

@cringusmoss9937 6 месяцев назад

This is so funny. I was just watching the video you did with sensei Seth with my daughter and we both said "that looks and sounds like wing chun!" Knowing you were teaching him self defense we thought it seemed obvious it's a different beast than sport karate. Even though many traditional kata remain the interpretations by modern practitioners are still made through a lens of either A enthusiasts or B sport practitioners. So few people who focus on self defense actually pressure test to make it useful. Seeing you learn new applications for knowledge that you have obviously spent so much time and effort to perfect is inspiring.

Great video. This video shows how our world of martial arts is closely linked. I like Jessie's enthusiasm when he finds something similar. We all should be sharing this way.

@onlywatching2c 6 месяцев назад

This is fascinating! The similarities they discover while comparing different methodologies. I have a black belt in a Shotokan-based karate system in the Philippines and was taught by a brilliant wing-chun stylist from the USA, who regrettably didn't have enough time to teach our small group as he was going back stateside. It is wonderful to watch Jesse Enkamp and Kevin Lee exchange notes instead of doing a pissing contest. We need more interactions like this in the martial arts.
