The Three Quick Steps To Generating Ki Power By Applying Flux Theory To Karate Kata

In this article I am going to reveal the three steps to making ki power through karate kata. This intrinsic energy is actually easy to make, but I have never met a sensei who knew the secret of how to release the power. I don't care if you study Japanese Karate kata, Korean Karate kata, Okinawan Karate kata, or whatever, the ki can be made--you just have to do the three easy steps.

This theory is actually known in some Chinese arts, used in 'Kung fu katas' if you wish to call mix labels. I take a more scientific approach, I call it Flux Theory, which is just a fancy way of saying you are going to start the flow of energy and tap into it. Here are the three steps.

First, you have to push from the earth. Most people consider this muscle building, or think of it as efficient motion, but it is far more than that. When you push from the earth you must focus on feeling the sensation of weight inside the leg doing the pushing.

Second, as you start to move the body through space with the push of the leg, you must start turning the hips. This is core to many systems, you will find it in karate kata forms, hapkido forms, even (and maybe especially) the taekwondo white belt forms. The trick is to, again, feel the sensation of mass moving through the frame, up the leg and through the hips up the body through to the arms.

Third, and this is the very important last step, when you execute a hard punch you must feel like you are shaking water off your arms. The idea here is to get used to relaxing your arm as much as possible, then getting the feeling pulsing the arm so that the energy that went up your leg, rotated with your hip, is pushed down and through your arm. You focus, but having a tight fist is not so important, can even be a hindrance, to the feeling that energy is snapping off the end of your hand just like water would be shaken off your fist.

Make sure you have have good karate stance if you want to really build energy, and this means you are going to have to critique every posture in every kata and make sure the legs are bent properly, not overly rigid, and so on. And, to make this ki work in karate fights, you are going to have to line up the hips and turn them at exactly the right time. Do these things, with strict attention to detail, and you are going to find that the ki power you are making will be the ultimate karate weapon.

Now, the problem is that most instructors don't understand this, and the forms are being changed for some weird idea of what karate combat is. If you have a fellow who is adapting his karate forms to kickboxing stances, or some other popular concept, then you are in trouble. Without the connection to the ground, and through the body, the ki power won't develop, and won't go through the body.

The point here is that you must stick to the classical forms. You must analyze all the forms from the different karate styles, and it it doesn't matter if it is Shotokan Karate forms, goju karate forms, shito ryu forms or isshin ryu forms or whatever, and make sure they are sound and workable. This is the method I depended on when I created Flux Theory, and this is how you are going to discover the true ki power available in karate kata
