Offering classes in Kung Fu San Soo in Glendale! Accepting new student beginning in January 2015!

Kung Fu San Soo is a martial art based on techniques from all over China, both Northern and Southern Chinese martial arts systems. The 5 Family Fist is an important part of San Soo, and is commonly practiced in the Taishan region of the Guangdong province. Kung Fu San Soo as taught in China has many traditional forms and isometric exercises in its training regimen. Chin Siu Dek (Jimmy H. Woo), the man responsible for bringing Kung Fu San Soo to America, did not believe in the animal styles and hence taught only the 5 family styles. His words were, «We fight like men, not animals.» The name «Kung Fu San Soo» itself was chosen by Woo to simplify the pronunciation and meaning for American students, rather than using the complete names of the 5 families.
