Anyone train under Jimmy H. Woo?

 

If so, please share your experiances with us. I've heard many stories about him and all of them are very encouraging. Also has your master told you any stories about him? Thanks

i don't think there's gonna be many 1st gen students trained by mr woo.

 

anyhow, who do you currently train under?

[Snakeeel]

Did not train under him...met him once at a demonstration in Long Beach , Ca. He was 62 at the time and amazing to watch. I trained under one of his 1st generation black belts, Frank Woolsey and Master Dennis Kirby.

I trained under one of his 1st generation black belts, Frank Woolsey and Master Dennis Kirby.

 

is woolsey even still around?

 

i heard he's running a very successful landscaping business.

No. Frank built an empire in a very short time teaching thousands of students and accumulated millions of dollars. Closed his schools in the early 80's I think. I left California in 78.

 

Dennis moved to Montana and still teaches there.

I train under Master James Matthews. I am quite proud to have him as a master. I just found out a few months ago that he was a bodyguard of Chuck Norris himself .
