Now I am a bad guy for stopping a takeover over a large portion of my life including blood, sweat and money. Between my tape (memorial) and Carls books, she has made many thousands of dollars. Shame on me.
This is the last I will send, their next letter said San Soo was Jimmy’s creation and no one else used it, so now I am a real bad Guy. I don’t really care what anyone thinks, we have done the best we can by finding the truths of our Art. Don’t deny our future students the real facts so they can pass them to their students. As a young student I felt something was … Read more
I need your help! We have a good start but our group is small compared to the thousands of San Soo students around the world who practice a very watered down version and most is not geared to help them in real combat. Much has been lost or never passed on and that is a shame. The family and hardliners who want to believe Jimmy’s First Generation marketing ploys want to hold on to the … Read more
Blast From the past San Soo Journal Volume 3: Issue 3 Spring 1997 Improving The Flow In San Soo Forms By Master Ron Gatewood When Jimmy introduced us to forms it was done in stages. The first forms we learned were not smooth-flowing Kung Fu Forms. They looked like hard-style Karate Forms. very rigid and power oriented. I have films of the “old-timers” doing these forms and if I did not tell you Jimmy taught … Read more

Where is Leon Kik, No one heard of him in Jimmy’s village, his Chinese Kung Fu school, his relatives, his Cousin (the son of the man who taught Jimmy), you can believe this story if you want but he did not exist. Amar did the research in China and I directed him from here and there is not much we don’t know. It is not even a 5 family Art, it originated as Choy Li … Read more
Jimmy wisdom! I give you letters, you make the words! Don’t make it Mickey mouse!
San Soo Journal – Blast from the past Volume 1, Issue 1 Fall 1994 THE “ONE-KNUCKLE FIST” STRIKE The Chinese Name for the one-knuckle punch is Dragon Fist. This punch was designed to produce intense pain to your opponent if properly used. The impact of the Dragon Fist can be explained by imagining that I am going to poke you in the stomach with the bottom of a Coke bottle – you would feel the … Read more
PinPoint Punching! Before I spend my time to write this out, it can be lengthy, so let’s see what you know or think. I want a few thoughts on it before I write my view. Even though Jimmy did not us names (as I remember) for them, he did show them, much more for one than the other. So start with what is the difference between the purpose/use of the “Dragon Fist & Phoenix Fist”?
Jimmy told a story of a time he was in a restaurant and he watched a burly-looking man challenge people to hit him in the stomach. He said he could take any man’s punch. Several men hit him but no one seemed to hurt him. Final4 Jimmy asked if he could try and the brute responded “Go ahead”. Jimmy stepped in and drove a one-knuckle punch into the man’s stomach area. The brute grabbed his … Read more
I am posting this about the low life morons that are burning our flag, they must be stopped. You are seeing our Country being taken over, we have very few freedoms left. Soon you will have less freedoms than Cuba, I am American, male, and white, if you have a problem with that, kiss off and get off my site. As I have told you before prepare for the worst.
Edward, things have picked up a little and I don’t think it is a good time to answer your compare questions as feelings of many could get involved and feelings hurt. I am not shy for saying what I believe and I will but I will let Jimmy answer that and then I will speak. When I choose a new Video I have no idea what is on it, I view it and the Barbara … Read more
I gave this a post of it’s own because I did want it buried in comment posts. Warren, Tim, Edward and a few others are starting to see the goal of our project. People argue about what Jimmy taught or said, we know, but then they want to say, everyone has their own opinion about the Art and its origin. I won’t argue, I just will show them but of course they will say “well … Read more
Today is the last day of the no cost for shipping video orders, it is sad to us that only 3 people have ordered the new videos we just finished. Barbara and I have both agreed that it is way too much labor to have the help of only a few that buy vids. We have about 6 or 7 who support our videos we will finish the next two and will make our decision … Read more
