Kung Fu San Soo

if there was an option for zero stars i would rate zero!!!
i am with the american cancer society.
i called this place to see if there was a possibility of them doing a demonstration at our relay for life cancer fundraisers.
i was so rudely hung up on and talked down to!!!
this place is run by nothing but a bully!!! he may pretend to teach respect but doesn’t give it back!!!
it would have been nice to just have been given a polite no thank you, but instead i was told «i am wasting his time.»
that is too bad. the american cancer society hosts hundreds of events all over the country all year long, and i am in charge of the entertainment for these events. this place would have gotten some great free advertising!!! our events average 500 people!!!
i would never ever bring anyone to this place or recommend to anyone!!!
what a poor example this place set.
stay far away!!!
the number i called was 714−458−1585 and whoever answered this phone number was the person who i am making this complaint towards. whenever I make any phone calls regarding american cancer society i immediately identify myself as calling from american cancer society.
so if this place denies receiving any phone call or speaking to me that statement is untrue.
that means this place is run by a liar or they allow their phone number and phone to be answered by someone they don’t know… which tells you what kind of business they run.

It’s been an honor and a privilege to train under Master dale. His knowledge of the art is immense. i started out as a white belt and am currently at black. Ive learned a lot over the years and made some great friends in class as well. If you want to learn the finer points of Kung fu san soo then this is the place for you.

Master Dale Garrison is very proficient at teaching real fighting (street ready) moves. The art of kung fu san soo is real hand to hand combat — nothing super-​fancy, just get the job done. After just a few lessons, you are able to defend yourself. I highly recommend Master Garrison’s teachings.

Master Garrison is a great instructor. Although I’m not a student myself, I’ve observed him on several occasions since he teaches a friend of mine. You can really see the dedication he has for San Soo and for teaching. He pays a lot of attention to each student and the combat techniques he teaches are not only important for self-​defense, but for discipline, confidence, and overall physical well-​being. My friend loves this class, and the comments I’ve heard from some of the other students have all been positive.

I’m extremely lucky to study Kung Fu San Soo with Master Dale Garrison and I’m especially fortunate to also have worked out with him at Jack Sera’s studio. Jack is the master Jimmy Woo trusted to take over his El Monte studio. If you don’t know who Jimmy Woo is, he’s the one who first started to teach his family art to people who weren’t Chinese and every first generation master and beginning white belt owe so much to him. May he rest peacefully.
In regards to Dale, when I first began my training with Jack Sera, Master Dale Garrison was the instructor Jack chose to help me get my foundation in the art. People may think teaching a new student is not important, but it is of the utmost importance and for Jack to trust Dale with that responsibility speaks so much about how Jack respects Dale’s knowledge of San Soo and his ability to teach this wonderful art.
I’ve learned so much from Dale. The basic 8 footwork, punching and kicking combinations, leverages, takedowns, throws and how being a dedicated student requires practice outside of class.
If you’re not familiar with Kung Fu san Soo This art is one that focuses on close combat fighting. It’s not sport fighting with rules, but a system of refined fighting techniques where you try to do all the things MMA makes illegal. You learn and practice this art, so you can end an attack quickly, so you and your loved ones can get away from life threatening trouble and live to talk about it another day.
That’s what I did when a man pulled a tech 9 on me while I was only a yellow belt. I fought for my life and I know that what Dale taught me helped me save it, because when my life flashed before my eyes I recalled things he said and executed them with the muscle reflex I had gained in my training with him. So, now, I’m so honored to have him teaching me his take on San Soo as a lead instructor.
I highly highly recommend you study with him. It may save your life too.

Master Garrison teaches my 13 year old personally. He learns self defense that are applicable in real life situations. A great teacher!
The useful skill/​knowledge of how to defend yourself if need to be was a great confidence builder for my son.
Thanks Master Garrison!
