Staff dueling

[AlthaxX]

I managed to get outside and play around with my sabers tonight for a little bit. I tried them as a 2 hander, one hander and dual wielding. Then i put them together into a staff and it just felt right to me, im pretty sure i will be specializing in staff style. Does anyone know what forms work best for staffs and also some sources for learning the style, i dont see alot on them arund this thread.

Most of what i read so far focuses on a bo staff and the longstaff. But the bo staff is much shorter than the 84" inch phantom saber staff.

Thanks in advance for your guidance.

The question is, what form do you want to use for staff? Are you more defensive or offensive?

If you are defensive I would recommend Soresu, it can be quite effective with a staff... if you are offensive maybe Juyo might be more your style. If you prefer a mix of both I would recommend Ataru. The agility training, combined with the kinetic movements will be a good mix.
