Hello Everyone,

Growing up in this world we learn there is only so much time we have to enjoy life.  Also, we have to take account of the money we have to spend on the things we need to do.  Whatever money is left can be spent on the things we want to do (unless you're Bill Gates or Warren Buffet who have money to last you several lifetimes).

So, If a person wants to learn how to defend themselves, get in shape, and/or fight in the ring/cage then make the best of your money and time and study any of these styles recommended on this blog.  Why?  It's due to the fact that these fighting styles will develop proficient fighting skill quickly, effectively, and efficiently!

A martial art like Kung Fu San Soo is perfect for the type of martial art you should not and do not want to study!

Even after you attained a black belt in Kung Fu San Soo (it takes about 5 to 6 years to get a black belt) you will not have sufficient fighting skill compared to the fighting styles recommended on this blog!  Studying Muay Thai for less than 2 years will develop harder and faster punches and kicks than Kung Fu San Soo masters or black belts can ever do!  How do I know?  It's because I've seen way too many Muay Thai practitioners develop into competent and REAL fighters and prove themselves in the ring or cage. I've seen way too many (almost all) Kung Fu San Soo guys on youtube show hardly any real fighting skill (remember, it's play fighting)!  I've seen Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu guys who train for less than a 1 year and already have skills to dominate a person who studies Kung Fu San Soo for more than 10 years!

This post sounds harsh, but it's the truth.  That's why the blog is called "Kung Fu San Soo Harsh Truth."  Yes, Kung Fu San Soo sucks.  Yes, Kung Fu San Soo is crap.  When compared to the fighting styles recommended on this blog, Kung Fu San Soo cannot be considered on the same level in developing fighting skill, physical fitness, and mental strength.
