Master Chuck Cory began his study of Kung Fu San Soo in early 1970. Upon receiving his black belt, from Sharon and Larry Wikel,  Chuck began studying San Soo directly under Jimmy H. Woo.  In 1974 Master Cory opened his first school in North Hollywood. Thousands of men, women, and children have studied under him. Master Cory has taught San Soo to the physically challenged, and has designed and run rape prevention classes, as well as specialized programs for military and law enforcement personnel.

     In Jan. 1983, Grand Master Jimmy H. Woo awarded Chuck Cory the rank of Master of San Soo. Master Cory continued teaching San Soo until Feb. 1992, when he turned the school over to one of his top students. He eventually settled in Dearborn Heights, Michigan. Master Cory remained a known and respected member of the San Soo community. His reputation was based entirely on his skill and knowledge of San Soo, and strengthened by his students.


  One such student, Bart Ryan, began teaching San Soo in Atlanta, GA. He continued until 1999, at which point he relocated to California.
Two of his students, Howard G. Scrivens and Brian R. Corsi, decided to petition Master Cory to continue their training in San Soo. Master Cory agreed and the two moved from Atlanta to Michigan. Master Cory made the decision to teach San Soo again to the public.

 

His goals are, and have always been, to teach an effective and practical fighting system, and to continue the traditions of Kung Fu San Soo. Master Cory, along with his instructors, opened San Soo Michigan on July 25th 2000. In February 2006 with Master Cory's departure from Michigan, Jeffrey P. Cornelius  now leads the school, which continues to flourish into the future.
