There is a certain magic about the Japanese sword katana. For a long time, carrying and using this world-famous weapon was the prerogative of the samurai. Even today, this weapon is an expression of samurai culture and philosophy. Today's martial arts are not about fighting, but about strengthening one's own inner attitude, opening the heart and BEING in mental and physical harmony.
