Approaching the multifaceted world of traditional Japanese martial arts, one can experience moments of profound mystery. It can happen when you receive a lesson from a true Master while visiting the places of origin of those Arts, or the first time you hold a forged sword, a sublime but sanguinary work of art.

It can happen when you are weighing a simple, old, rusty, weighted chain in the palms of your hands.

The Kusari - also known as Kusarifundō or Manrikigusari, is a traditional minor weapon used by the warriors and police officers in the Japanese feudal period. Tracing its historical, philosophical and technical traits, Christian Russo, practitioner and teacher of Japanese Martial Arts, accompanies us through an evanesced time and place, where this small weapon has been secretly guarded for centuries.
