    in Kuk Sool, we are told that our forms are designed to align the body to enable proper flow of internal energy... My question is, do styles like Chun Kuk Do in the video below do the "ch" sound for each punch and kick to somehow augment their Chi flow ? Honestly, I think it's done for effect, like starching your Gi..either way, it seems silly and unnecessary to me. Am I wrong, what evidence is there to the contrary?

    Thanks!

    Maybe MAP doesn't have enough chi to post the video? :hat::p

    I think you'd have to ask the Chun Kuk Do folks what the sound is for.

    Of course if they are making that sound to augment ch'i flow they're lost.

    Everybody knows the sounds to use are "heng" and "ha".;)

    You can look up Liu Zi Jue: six sounds approach to Qigong Breathing Exercise, and each sound said to have some effects.
