BIO

Bio

On July 20, 2013 Master Sean Russell was inducted in to the United States Martial Arts Hall of Fame for Master Instructor of the Year. Along with this award he also became an esteemed member of the International Martial Arts Council of America.

Sean’s Kung Fu San Soo training began August 1983 earning his black belt from Steve Monday and Bill Lasiter four years later. After graduating from California State University San Bernardino with a Bachelors degree in Economics, Sean resumed training and diligently earned his 4th degree black belt from Jerry Druckerman. Subsequent to earning his 4th degree black belt, Sean stopped formally training while supporting and raising his three young boys. In June 2009 Sean succeeded in earning his 7th degree black belt from Dave Hopkins and continued on to earn his Master’s Degree in Kung Fu San Soo from Master Carl Lorenzen.

Sean is dedicated to teaching and preserving the traditional art of Kung Fu San Soo as taught by Jimmy H. Woo. San Soo teaches the use of intersecting triangles and circles to provide a strong base which creates a powerful and devastating art. Kung Fu San Soo techniques are not randomly strung together but are well thought out systems of motion. The art was developed by monks with an excellent understanding of physiology and was designed to take out an opponent as quickly and efficiently as possible. Kung Fu San Soo is not intended to be pretty and fancy. When practiced it is designed to be fierce and violent while simultaneously keeping a student’s body safe from injury.
