Actually, this is the wikipedia entry that explains it:

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?

I didn't get into it much , but it is a good style , and the above links will explain it better than i can.

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,

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.

Jimmy Woo's San Soo Kung Fu is a mixture of several Kung Fu styles.

I like the fact they put their emphasis on self-defense .

Thanks for the video link, Treebranch. It looks like a true survive-on-the-street martial art.
