I find it hard to do the basic spins with my left hand, as I'm a rightie. Any tips, or is it just a matter of practice? I'm guessing the latter. I like the step-by-step guides; great job. :)

Thanks for the comments!

I'm a right-hander as well but it truly is just a matter of practice. The more you do the spins with you left the more your muscles will get use to the movements. Its muscle memory training.

your teachings worked for me and got me in the talent show so thank you master jedi

[banditcar]

Thats the kinda comments I love to get! I'm so glad that the tutorials helped you out and got you into the talent show! Let us know how you do! MTFBWY

i cant afford force fx so these are hard to do because the 10 dollar toy ones are so fat

[banditcar]

You can use a cheap substitute like an old broom handle. Something that has weight to it. If you do use a broom stick, be sure to wrap one end with some electrical tape or some padding to give you the feel of the hilt.

The toys are difficult to practice with because they are so unbalanced and have no real weight in the tip to give the blade momentum.

Hope that helps!

I tried this drill with a 30" Escrima stick, it came flying out of my hand, bounced off the wall and hit my wife in the head! Great fun!

@S8T8E8A The smoother it will get, most likely. Stuff like this is a matter of practice, so the more you practice, the smoother it will get.

[staelthyninja11]

Thank you so much!! Even though my lightsaber isn't an Force FX Lightsaber, and is a little bit thicker, I can execute all the moves(after much practice) and can impress my peers!! Thanks again!!!!!!

I'm thinking of getting a ffx what one would you recommend? what would fit better in the hand?

I had to workout my technique all by myself since 1999 and i´ve done pretty well, it´s good to know that now further padawans will have the tools i didn´t a long time ago. But may i suggest something master? Make videos with Dual-Saber techinques because i find it very difficult to handle that and it would be a great tool. Thanks for considering.

your tutorials are just awesome! I learned the first 5 lessons in no time! I want the DVD really bad! :D have you presented some combat forms? Anyway you are a true Jedi Master! May the Force be with you! may the Force be with you all!
