After finishing his preliminary classical studies at the Munich Conservatory with Andre Legros and studies with Tenorsaxman Jürgen Seefelder in 1988, he started studying at the Jazz Institute of Graz (Austria) where he met two of his heroes, Dave Liebman and Jerry Bergonzi. Enders won three times first prizes at Austria's International Competitions in his early twenties. In 1990, ex-Coltrane bass player Reggie Workman recommended him for a scholarship at New York's New School. While in the States, Enders took lessons from Donald Byrd , Kenny Werner, Jimmy Cobb, Jim Hall and others. He won a Silver Award at the American MusicFest in Oakland, CA (1990) and . Young Enders recorded with David Liebman on Harry Pepl's "Schönberg Improvisations" and was a featured soloist on Joe Locke's "Longing."
