Belasko Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 In our class we don't actually shout. Our kiup is a forced exhalation from the diaphragm that often comes out sounding vaguely like an "I". Getting a blackbelt just says you have learned the basics and are ready to actually study the form as an art.
ninjanurse Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 For me it depends on what I happen to be doing at the time. Usually it's just a real short kihap that sounds like "ai-yah" but other times it changes to things like "pa-sho"...I know it's silly but it is quite affective at announcing a point and freaking the other guy out!

Slydermv Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 For normal kicks i sound like "Sahhhhh"When we practice power kicking it change to a two part thing something like 'HaSahhhh"Don't know where those sounds came from either.... hehe
neclos Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 I've seen even more silly ones from my seniors when I was on lower grade... which rewarded me a lot of pushups for smirking. I find that I'll just do whatever works. Though most of the time I'm more like the "hap" in kihap.
UpTheIrons Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 Just an abdominal yell. Nothing that can really be described in English. Queen Padme: "So this is how Democracy dies-with thunderous applause."Annikin Skywalker: "You're either with me or against me!"Obi-won Kenobi: "That is the Way of the Sith!"
Hogosha Posted May 17, 2005 Author Posted May 17, 2005 i and people at my tkd class usually shout 'set' no one knows exactlly why though, habit i guess. - Hogosha
taiji fajin Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 I yell "yo-ha-sa-sa-sha!" and then boot them in the head. Its part of my Tae-Kwon-Leap training.Either that, or I just let out some air. If anything it sounds more deep and like a grunt than a yell. Fetch Daddy's blue fright wig! I must be handsome when I unleash my rage.
Sam Posted May 18, 2005 Posted May 18, 2005 Same as belasko - just a expulsion of air forced from the diaphragm.
ranger1100ky Posted May 18, 2005 Posted May 18, 2005 Anything... I mean ANYTHING but "YEOWWWWCH!!!".Depends on the circumstance... In forms... I tend to make something of a gutteral 'ai-yeh' sound...Tournament free sparring, when trying to call judge's attention to a point technique I'm throwing... I go LOUD with a hearty "AI-YAHH!!!"If I were in class, leading the class through drills... I'd call off the command explaination... like..."Front stance!!"Then TRIGGER everyone's execution with a loud but gutteral "AIEE!" Board breaking... it varies... but I do like to make sure to time the ki-hap with the impact... if nothing else, to give my voice something better to do than yell OUCH if I miss the break.
