Our children's program starts from ages 4-15 (age 4 at the Kung Fu San Soo LA only).
What separates a good martial arts school from a great one? A great martial arts school should be a major influence and driving force for kids to learn to develop good character, become focused students, good citizens and eventually leaders in their communities. At Kung-Fu San Soo LA we have developed a strong moral code of conduct that the kids follow. We are a school that is a safe haven and healthy atmosphere where the kids can learn, grow and flourish.
In many schools there is a huge gap in their curriculum by not addressing verbal responses to real-life situations. It is not enough for kids to know how to be able to use self-defense skills. They need to learn the verbal skills of knowing what to say, the right time to say it and how it should be said.
We have a comprehensive anti-bullying system which has a continuous 13 week program in which the kids learn how to deescalate a situation with a series of word blocks, redirection of behavior and understanding the psychology of the bully. They learn to use a these verbal skills before they ever have to get physical. This is in effect using their "Kung-Fu". The meaning of Kung-Fu loosely translated is "working man". It refers to the occupation of an individual.
So you could say that a Doctor's Kung-Fu is the medicine he or she practices, an attorney's Kung-Fu is the law that he or she practices. For kids it is being a good student, a good son or daughter, a good sibling and in this case a good student in "anti bullying". Please check our Anti-Bullying section for a more comprehensive description of the program.
