Noun (OW-SSSSS): The rushing exhale of
air from the lungs formed into a specific and semi-uniform word while exerting oneself. Similar to a Japanese Kiai. Ouss was made
popular in a system of martial arts known as Kuntao Jiu-Jitsu.
It is also used when greeting or leaving a Superior in a KJJ dojo. It serves as a sign of respect and conveys
one's intentions to give all that they have (in effort and attention).
Further emphasis can also be given with an additional syllable. "Ouss-Ahhh". Not to be
mistake for the softer and gentler "Oo-sah" done in meditation.
