Practice session: contact and other stuff Drilling those angel rolls, but I think I am making progress. Also some fishtails and a few other things I am working on. Weighted Saber seems to be working out well.

I think it's time to start focusing on something else.

You da' man! Yes, the boredom, ah- complete control, on your face and in your body was easy to discern.
I just started watching DC's tutorials today and am planning to take up spinning.

I'd reccomend Venturous as a good resource as well as DC, especially if you've got a staff.

This post is really a shout-out to Darth Cephalus, Master Venturous, and SamHain. I wanted to say you three have really been my springboard into taking up saber wielding. DC’s tutorials got me started, Venturous’s style caught my eye, and SamHain’s video documented transformation inspired me. So cheers to you three, and cheers to what this new passion has kicked off for me this year! I’ll have a chance to get some video up soon, but living in the frozen tundra of nearly northern WI has it’s outdoor options limited this time of year🙄

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZWZ-Rp38vkI'd been drinking and confined to a 6x6 space (apt is packed with furniture and it's too cold to go outside) buuuut I've got most of the basics down! as i'm sure y'all can tell I'm focusing on behind the back transfers and fluidity right now. The song actually went perfectly because it was slow and fast tempo and gave me a nice template. Let me know what you guys think! I can't wait to be able to spread out and get more into it! I love my saber!

Firstly I want to say great start Elwood. I'd like to see you not try to force it so much though. Let the moves flow. I recently made this same point to someone else. It doesn't have to be fast to look good. It's more important, in my opinion, that your speed stay steady. Some moves being fast, some being slow really takes away from it all. Here's an example of slow and fast demos and maintaining the same speed.
