Let's see if that works. But took a short video of various tosses I practiced today since it was above freezing.

Today I was trying to do more than what I call the Cossack Back and Forth. Not really liking when I tried to do that isolation staff move, and there were a couple times my movements were looser than I would have liked. That being said, I am definitely liking what I'm putting out, and am definitely open to criticisms, tips, and ideas.

Everything you are doing looks good. I will add though that you can tell 100% you are coming from using fire. I'm not any kind of real spinner so this is just going by what I see compared to others. With a saber the songs and moves are more geared towards also being able to use while fighting. Your spinning is more of just a flow thing and the way you hold the saber I don't ever rant see a grip you could use the strike with. Keep in mind in not saying anything is wrong with that it is just different. Still very good.

No offense taken. I also do stage combat as well as have martial arts experience, and I agree with you. There was not a single strike or even defense pose worthy of the name. This was all going with the flow baby.

I wanted to say thank you to everyone that has said hello to me (not so much here but in other threads, y'all have made me feel welcome worry not). So I am getting a resection surgery(post-cancerous, now is the cleanup, so to speak), and shan't be posting videos for while as I heal up. I am planning on using my new sabers to get back to healthy though, so I shall eventually be posting once again. I also posted this on the demo thread, but since this is my corner, here it goes as well

I have a few really cool moments in there, and I'm starting to be able to get my speed up, for a time. Also posting on the flow thread. By the by, if anyone have any comments or tips for things to add to my flow, critiques on my flow, or whatsnot, I would love to hear them as I'm always trying to get better.

Thank you, and I am planning on a night video when it gets a wee bit warmer. We do live in Bear Country, but Black Bear Country, so not too worried.
