That guy is always on that show...what show is that?

[Shotokan!]

Kiai is a breathingmethod used in most types of karate.
When a karate-ka has performed a move he would shout KIAI to let out air so the technique is stronger and more locked.

Some people say kiai is the best form of self defense.

''In a fight you must make as much noise as possible''

This is true, it would scare the attacker and force him to think you know what you're doing.

I wish there was a way for you to see my contemptous and scornful laughter over the internet.
