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.
