'''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.'''
I started my martial arts journey in 1984-85 when I started 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]], [[kukishin ryū| 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.
I have a websites up about one of the martial arts that I study and I also have an account at YouTube, where I post many videos about the martial arts and Japanese cultural events.
My website is:
Sosuishitsuryu:

My YouTube account 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.
