      Thanks to Sir Christopher Lee for creating a whole style of fencing in Star Wars, and thanks to him for insisting on making a curved handle - it turned out to be really the most beautiful and elegant!
      And also thank him for giving us Count Dooku, giving him charisma, significance and, most importantly, a soul.

    How would you feel about adding lunging attacks into your choreography? Seeing as this whole stance was based on actual European fencing techniques, I think they would fit in fairly well. Plus with force powers and clever video editing, some really cool exchanges could be set up with lunges.

    Form II: the form was invented to defeat other opponents with lightsabers, henceforth its common to salute the opponent before engaging in a duel. The key is doing as much as possible whilst moving as little as possible. This form is best summarized by count dooku (as we all know)!

    Dooku was a baller. He took on two of the Jedi Order's best in Anakin and Obi-Wan multiple times. Took on Yoda and was the Master of Qui-Gon Jinn. Possibly one of the top 5 Jedi ever before his fall to the Darkside. He saw the writing on the wall with the corruption of the Jedi and how they became weak and arrogant.
    Dooku was a gentleman, refined, eloquent, a political idealist, a servant of the Force not the corrupt Senate and their petty politics.

    • @joedirt861

      A typical European saber had a blade of 32 inches or less, and a crossguard to help balance the weight. In addition to being thinner than most light sabers, which helps with grip. You need to build forearm strength. How do we do this? Moulenets. Schola gladitoria has some old videos that give good examples. You need to build up the wrists and forearms. If I remember or am reminded I'll link them.
