Find a qigong class. That's VERY VERY powerful internal art to help you cultivate Chi. I know this from direct experience.

Chi is extremely hard to explain how to use . I advise taking tai chi to find your own answers. At first , at least for me, tai chi will seem like a set of motions but as you get better you will begin to understand.

Chi has a lot to do with your breathing while executing the techniques...there is the right time to inhale & exhale in sparring to help you extend your chi better...not easy to master though...

You need to learn martial arts to know the answer to that. Chi is more than an answer from a question. It's breathing, harmony and Buddhism and Zen and Dao. You can control it through knowledge and breathing and meditation.

Chi (in the sense that you want to use it) is internal energy.
It is not something that you can say "Gee... I wan'na use it" one day and do so the next.
Chi can only be used for self defense with the internal martial arts and it takes YEARS before you can apply it at will to self defense.

Many modern practioners describe qi as "biomagnetism"; I, however, think that it is simply a wholistic examination of energy rooted in a Daoist world-view, rather than a Western, reductionist world-view.
As for gaining proficiency in qigong, if you can't find an instructor nearby, I recommend the resources available at:

"magical" chi is like god,
it doesn't exist no matter how much people want it to.
