Actually, this is the wikipedia entry that explains it:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_soo

San Soo and San Shou are two different things.

I used to study San Soo with Dave Carter in Whittier a really long time ago. One the most effective MA's out there. I've used it.

Where do you study?

This website is horribly vague. The same statements are often made about nearly every martial art. Such as:

1. Doesn't require brute force
2. Ends the fight as quickly as possible
3. No Rules fighting

With respect, this is jargon that's often used to sell a martial art. As you are a Brown belt in the art, can you tell us a little more about it? Perhaps give examples of combinations you use, your favorite techniques and so on. This would help to paint a better picture of what the art is all about.

Thanks,

Bill

I did it for a good while a long time ago.

This gives you a pretty good idea of what it's like. Enjoy.

Wow that looks a lot like a self defense type of karate.
