Treebranch Posted June 10, 2003 Posted June 10, 2003 I just wanted to clearify something that comes up now and then. Kung San Soo and San Shou are different Martial Arts all together. One is competitive the other is not. Here's a link for Kung Fu San Soo tell me what you think. This is the founder. http://www.kungfusansoo.com/ These are some clips. http://24.199.21.166/sansookungfu/Videos.html Enjoy "It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience.""Lock em out or Knock em out"
Kensai Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 San Soo is "basically" a Chinese striking art. San Shou is "basically" a Chinese grappling art.
Treebranch Posted June 11, 2003 Author Posted June 11, 2003 I not sure what you mean, but San Soo has some grappling in it and San Shou definitely has striking in it. Cung Le is a San Shou Champ and he definitely has striking in his fighting style. San Shou has some throws and take downs and from what I have seen some locks. But so does San Soo.

Kensai Posted June 14, 2003 Posted June 14, 2003 Trust me, although the arts do have over lap, thats bacially what they are.
TJS Posted June 14, 2003 Posted June 14, 2003 san shou is basically Muay Thai with Throws and sweeps.
Drunken Monkey Posted June 15, 2003 Posted June 15, 2003 er, no muay thai is from thailand. both of the others have a chinese origin. post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
TJS Posted June 15, 2003 Posted June 15, 2003 er, no muay thai is from thailand. both of the others have a chinese origin. "like" it is similar
Treebranch Posted June 17, 2003 Author Posted June 17, 2003 Kensai said Trust me, although the arts do have over lap, thats bacially what they are. I studied San Soo and I've watched quite of few San Shou fights and I have to say that they are very different. San Soo is a Combat MA, and San Shou is a Competition Fighting Art, big difference. I'd say San Soo is more of a grappling art than San Shou. Check the clips out and then go to Cung Le's sight and watch him fight. http://www.cungle.com/ "It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience.""Lock em out or Knock em out"
