Purpose of a Scream
(Ki-Hap)
When you scream you will benefit by increasing your confidence giving you a positive attitude, and physically making your body tighten so that when you punch and kick you will be able to use all your body's energy. It can also be used as verbal intimidation to give you strong presence. That's the reason we have a loud scream.
