well in short is very hard Okinawan karate style. witch focuses quite a bit on hands as well as feet, from what ive seen. and has reputation for having insane , out of their mind instructors.
Well, the only difference between exhaling while you strike and yelling when you strike is the volume. So I don't think it would make that much of a difference.
That is, as long as you aren't doing the 'teeth hissing' breath every time you strike in a form. That just irritates me for some reason.

I wasn't suggesting not breathing, but by making when you exhale noisy makes it obvious when you are inhaling. When I do my kata I don't hold my breath until a kiai, I just doing exhale loudly on every single move.
The main thing I was trying to get at was the fact that noisy exhalation, in my opinion, does more harm than good in a fight.
The volume of breathing out will vary depending on the amount of muscle exertion. It is easy to talk about controlling your breath and so on but, I don't think that in a fight it is that easy at all. In Kata and in point sparring you can work those kind of things but, thats not real fighting.
Back to the subject, I heard kind of something weird that Shorin
Ryu was the Japanese way of saying Shaolin and that the art is based on Shaolin wushu but, I highly doubt this. Anybody else hear that?

I heard that also, but there is no such thing as Shaolin Wushu, esp in that era.

From what I have seen it is an import of crane kung fu, with tiger elements added. If you put crane kung fu practiioner and Okinawan karate practitioner side by side and have them show what they do it is amazing the similarities. I really doubt that is coincidence.

It is not (a coincidence) given the history of Okinawan arts.....
