Anyone on these boards in Japan? Specifically the Yokosuka/Yokohama area?
A few of my coworkers and I were thinking about having a fun battle in the area here, more for fun, but also to pique the interest and eyes of the Japanese here.
Some want to do right outside of the base, but if we can get a large enough following, maybe we can do this at Landmark Tower or something like that.
First, I just need to know if there are others on these boards that I do not know about... (so far, I have 5 other coworkers interested)....
You're the first I've heard of! I assume you're stationed there from what you've said? Welcome to the forums (since October) BTW!
According to sources I have, there was a "Japan Lightsaber Dueling Guild" in the Kamakura area in early 2011. I don't know if it is still active.
Other sources available to you: My experience in following the various clubs worldwide is that lightsaber dueling and choreography in Asia seems highly tied to The Rebel Legion and 501st garrisons out there. So you should contact
http://www.501st.jp/ and
http://www.rebellegion.com/base.php?b=35 respectively. If they know of any choreography clubs or duelling clubs not on my list, please let me know
If you've like, you can ask to be added to the Sparring Partner Map so that others who join these forums in Japan can find you
