Lvl-1 Fire Bending 
Fire Bending
For Beginners
If your natural element is fire (see “your element” page) then this may come easier to you. Even if these techniques are not full blown firebending, they are still nessesary to learn firebending. first thing’s first….fire meditation

fire meditation- for fire imagine yourself next to a big fire or volcano. think of the fire as your veins imagine your body as a black figure and only your glowing veins are showing. think with every breath you take think of your veins getting hotter and hotter and brighter and brighter and bigger. open your eyes and begin your training as a fire bender.

hot hands- first, make it look like you are holding a softball with two hands. now imagine your body a pitch black color. now imagine your veins glowing with an orange/red substance. they are gradualy getting hotter, and hotter. brighter and brighter. until they are steaming. now imagine your body returning to its normal color, and your veins stop glowing, but are still orange/red and are still very hot.
 the orange/red light (chi) slowly comes out of the veins of your arms and into the palms of your hands. the chi is hot as it goes through your veins, to your palms.
 your hands should get hot!
PS: sometimes you can burn yourself, but its not serious. just stings a little

chi balls- making chi balls can be easy with  a lot of practice. first, make it look like you are holding a softball with two hands. now imagine your body a pitch black color. now imagine your veins glowing with an orange/red substance. they are gradualy getting hotter, and hotter. brighter and brighter. until they are steaming. now imagine your body returning to its normal color, and your veins stop glowing, but are still orange/red and are still very hot.
 now the chi ball part
 now imagine the color in your veins coming out into the palm of your hand, and imagine the orange/red light coming out of your palms and meeting in the middle of your two hands, the orange/red substance (chi) is very hot as it leaves your palms. the light forms a ball in the center of your two hands, and continues to get hotter and hotter.

chi blast:
 first, make a basic chi ball.
 now, keep adding energy to it, but dont let it get bigger, just denser and hotter.
 then, when you feel you cant put anymore chi into it, move all the chi in your body into the chi ball even though you feel you cant put anymore chi in.
 now that the ball is pressurized to the max, thrust your hands out in a double-palm strike, and with your mind and will power, make the chi ball explode foward with all its force.
 this can cause the opponent to lose concentration and stamina. note that you cant see this blast, and it works great against another bender because it makes them lose their concentration. but if you can do this really good. make sure you keep it at a beginner level, as it can really hurt somebody if used by a master.

mana ball-the difference between this and a chi ball, is that mana ball uses energy from one of the four elements, outside the body. where chi uses the energy from the mind and body.
 first, put your palm up, with your arm bent. it can be either head, or chest lvl.
 use your chi meditation to sense the energy around you
 now breath in this energy(mana) into a ball about three inches off your palm. breath out and stop drawing energy
 repeat this for about a minute for beginners, and you will have a decent charged mana ball.

fire mana ball- same thing as a mana ball, but takes energy from a specific element…..fire
 first, make sure you are somewhere that has a view of the sun. although you CAN do this where there is no sun, but you have to visualize it.
 now, make a mana ball, but instead of drawing in random energy, draw energy directly from the sun,
 visualize every time you breath in, orange/red, hot energy comes from the sun and into a ball in your hands
 now you should have a ball of fire energy.
PS: this is difficult to do at night because you have to visualize the sun. you cant see it.

controlling fire- now just like in making a chi ball, instead of making aball, point the palms of your hands toward a candle flame, as close as you can get without burning yourself. imagine the chi coming out of your hands in strands connected to the five soles of your palms. visualize the strands of orange/red chi wrapping around the flame snuggly. now move your hands, side to side, up and down. keep your eyes closed for beginners. and just feel yourpalms being tugged as your pull the flame with your chi. now once you get the feel of it, try it with your eyes open. the flame should move with your hands. Even though your eyes are open, keep visualizing the steps above. keep practicing it and you will master it in no time!

ATTENTION: TO MAKE THESE WORK EASIER FOR YOU, YOU MAY HAVE TO ALTER THE VISUALIZATIONS TO SUIT YOU, WHAT I MEAN BY THIS IS THAT WHEN VISUALIZING SOMETHING, IF YOU FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE WITH VISUALIZING CHI AS A LIQUID, THEN VISUALIZE IT LIKE A LIQUID.

Lvl-2 FireBending
 ATTENTION: MAKE SURE YOU MASTER THE LVL 1 FIREBENDING SKILLS BEFORE DO THIS
this is more advanced firebending and should be used with caution as fire can apparently burn you 

Making fire- You will need a VERY dry leaf, your chi, and of course your hands. hold the leaf in all your fingers. now visualize the smoke-like substance coming out of your hands and making they hotter, Hotter, HOTTER. now after your hands are really hot, focus the chi on the leaf to make a circle around it. imagine the leaf getting hotter,Hotter, HOTTER. and after practicing this a lot, you should be able to singe it. or in more extream cases….make fire

fire ball- ok to do this you need to master making fire. to do this form your chi into a ball and make your chi become hotter and hotter and hotter until it becomes a flame. be careful even though you can control it it can still burn  you!

fire punch- to do this make a fire ball and make it expand to cover your whole hand like a glove. when you have the flame around your hand the simply punch your target and it will be hit by your hand and a flame!

 fire kick- to do this repet the technique above and use your foot instead

fire blast- to do this you need to make a chi block in your arm right above your elbow.  to make a chi block make a wall of chi in your arm that will let chi in but not out . ok now that you have the block you need to fill it with chi until the presure builds to maxim the let it explode out but once it leaves your arm and goes into your hand change it to fire and lauch it at your target.

Lvl-3 FireBending  YOU DONT HAVE TO MASTER LVL 2 FIREBENDING BEFORE YOU MOVE ON TO THIS, BUT ITS A GOOD IDEA TO MASTER LVL 2 BECAUSE IT WILL MAKE THIS A WHOLE LOT EASIER

fire blast- to do this you need to make a chi block in your arm right above your elbow.  to make a chi block make a wall of chi in your arm that will let chi in but not out . ok now that you have the block you need to fill it with chi until the presure builds to maximum. then, let it explode out but once it leaves your arm and goes into your hand change it to fire and lauch it at your target

fire bending basicsGetting Started To get started you will need to complete the requirements for your first bending technique. In this case it would be "Heat Control". All chi techniques can be found on the Chi Techniques page, and all meditations and telekinesis can be found on the Mind Dojo page. Once you can do all the requirements, you are ready to start bending! I

Heat Control Requirements

Telekinesis(recommended) Breathing Meditation, Breathing meditation
 Heat control is the most basic firebending skill you will learn. First, do the breathing meditation. Then I want you to feel your whole body slowly getting warmer. As a beginner, it is best to keep your eyes closed throughout this whole technique as to keep yourself focused.
As you make yourself slowly feel warmer, and warmer, and warmer, you will eventually feel hot. To make sure it is not just your imagination, put your hand a few inches off your neck or forehead, if it feels warm then congratulations you have completed heat control.
when
you are feeling your body getting warmer, you are releasing energy from the cells in your body, and when energy is released

Flame Control  Requirements

Telekinesis, Chi Projection, Breathing Meditation, Chi Meditation, Breathing Meditation

In this technique you will learn how to control a small flame. First, get out a candle or lighter. Now do the breathing meditation. After you complete the breathing meditation, proceed to project chi into the flame. Feel the chi connecting to the flame, and keep the chi connected throughout the rest of this technique. Now that you have connected your chi to the flame, use telekinesis on the flame and try to control it. This is a fairly easy technique if you can do telekinesis and chi projection properly.
Also, try lifting the flame with this technique.

Fire Ball Requirements

Flame Control, Heat Control, Chi Ball, Chi Meditation, Breathing Meditation
The fire ball technique requires much persistance. But if you really want to become a firebender, you should have no problem with this technique.
First, start out by doing the sun meditation, but do not store this chi. Instead, direct it straight to your hand and form a chi ball with it. Continue this process throughout the whole technique.
Now,

heat up your hand with the heat control technique, and also feel the chi itself getting hotter and hotter. It will feel like intense energy between your hands if you do this right. Now feel your chi just exploding into a fireball. Dont really explode it, but feel it just bursting into a fireball. If you do it right it will look like heatwaves between your hands. And eventually you will see energy
Eventually when your chi gets stronger, your fireball will get hotter, and it will be brighter.
  
WARNING: Don't try to build up pressure in your chi ball. Just fuel it. If you build up too much pressure in the chi ball, and then heat it up, it will explode and could seriously injure you.

Fire Shot Requirements

Fire Ball, Chi Meditation, Breathing Meditation
First, do the fire meditation. After you do that, make a fireball.After you have your fireball made, thrust your hand foward into a palm strike, and release the chi you gathered through the sun meditation. The fireball will go flying foward.
You may also use Flame Control to give the fireball an extra boost

WARNING: do not attempt to do this indoors. You're firebending may not be powerful enough yet as to set things on fire, but you never know.

Nova Requirements

Fire Ball, Chi Meditation, Breathing Meditation, Telekinesis
In this technique you will be making a ring of fire spread out all around you. Make a basic fireball. Then, hold it in the air, and hold it in two hands. If you made it in one hand, you will have to use telekinesis to handle it in a way that you can make it so you are holding it with two hands.
Now, levitate the fireball by using telekinesis. Make it go up only a few inches more. Now, spread your hands out to the sides of you, and use telekinesis to disperse the fireball in a ring.
You

will need substancial telekinetic ability to be able to do this skill, so don't try it unless you do.
