JEDI 7: The Seven Combat Forms of the Jedi
December 7, 2024 December 8, 2024
SERIES OF CLASSES

Join us as we examine the Star Wars’ Lightsaber Fighting combat styles.

In this class, we’ll explore the lore and styles of the seven canon lightsaber forms created for the Star Wars by George Lucas and his incredible team.

This class will prepare performers (and fans) for work in not only Star Wars, but in any fantasy setting where sword dueling requires more than just solid basics. Performers will gain an understanding of how to meld lore, tone, style and technique into a beautiful action based, storytelling tapestry. 

Join Sword Maestro Terence Rotolo (Black Sails, Power Rangers) and TJ Storm(Vader Immortal, Jedi: Fallen Order) for an adventure into the Star Wars Universe as we focus on mastery of fantasy sword fighting techniques, storytelling and choreography as it intersects to the Star Wars Universe.
