"Gimme a break, I'm still learning!"
My name is Russ Ebert. I was born in 1971 in Portland, Oregon and currently I am a U.S. expatriate living in Kuwana, Japan.
My martial arts journey started in 1984-85 when with Sosuishiryu in Oregon City, Oregon. After 16 years of study I decided I should branch out and I started studying Shinto Muso Ryu Jo. Eventually, my path led me to Japan where I now study Sosuishi ryu, Shinto Muso Ryu, Owari Tenshin Koryu Kempo, Kukishinden Tenshin Hyoho and Hōten-ryū. This may seem like a lot, but the last four budo I study are under the same teacher, so I am not Dojo hopping or bogging myself down too much.
I'm married and the father of three. I live a quiet life as an English teacher in the Aichi and Mie prefectures of Japan.
My website is:

I also run a organization based in Japan doing international trade and selling martial art goods and books on the internet. I won't hyperlink here, but my company is called Futago Trader.
