These techniques can be changed instantly to suit the situation and do not necessarily follow a pattern. The utilization of highly scientific principles of physics involving movement and leverage, as well as intense concentration and controlled breathing, gives a fighter extreme power. Agility, balance, coordination, humility, and respect for others are also emphasized.

Master Doug’s interest in the Martial Arts began when, as a ten year old, he discovered a book on judo. After using some of the moves from the judo books in actual fights and finding that they worked way better than expected he wanted to learn more. In 1980 he started learning Kung Fu San Soo from Master Chuck Cory. He was awarded Green Belt from Master Cory and relocated to Orange County where he found Master Russ Williams – the VERY BEST Kung Fu San Soo instructor in the world. From that day on he has been constantly studying Kung Fu San Soo under the instruction of Master Russ Williams until Russ’s retirement in 2019.
