Welcome to the Saber Academy, a cutting-edge training program designed to hone your skills in seven different forms of combat. Whether you are a beginner looking to learn the basics or an experienced fighter wanting to take your abilities to the next level, the Sabre Academy has something for everyone.
So, what exactly is the 7 Forms Saber Academy? In short, it’s where Star Wars fans come to learn the ancient art of lightsaber combat. The academy covers all seven traditional forms of lightsaber fighting, drawing inspiration from the Jedi and Sith techniques seen in the films. And don’t worry – it’s designed for everyone, no matter your skill level! Whether you're brand new to lightsabers or you’ve been duelling for years, our classes are tailored to make sure you get the most out of every session.
We launched our first session on the 14th of September, and it was an absolute blast! We saw participants from all walks of life, from total beginners to hardcore fans who’ve been practising in their back gardens for years. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of being in a room full of lightsaber enthusiasts, all learning and laughing together. The atmosphere was electric, and we can’t wait to welcome even more people to future sessions!
And let’s not forget – while the academy is all about learning, it’s also about fun. The 7 Forms Saber Academy isn’t just training; it’s an experience. You’ll not only pick up cool lightsaber techniques but also connect with others who share your passion for the Star Wars universe. We believe in creating a welcoming environment for everyone – whether you’ve just started your Star Wars journey or you’re an old pro.
Now, you might be wondering, "Is this really for me?" And the answer is a resounding yes! Here’s why:
First, it’s not just about swinging a lightsaber around (though let’s be honest, that’s pretty awesome). The 7 Forms Saber Academy is about community. Our sessions are a chance to meet fellow Star Wars fans, share stories, and grow together. You’ll learn from trained instructors who are passionate about the art of lightsaber combat and who make sure you’re having fun every step of the way. There’s something truly special about learning alongside others who are just as excited as you are. Whether you’re picking up a saber for the first time or polishing advanced techniques, there’s always something new to discover.
And let’s face it – who hasn’t dreamed of wielding a lightsaber? Whether it’s to fulfil a childhood dream or just to try something new, lightsaber training is one of the coolest hobbies you could take up. You’ll get fitter, improve your coordination, and learn skills that look seriously impressive. Plus, you get to say you're a member of an actual lightsaber training academy! How many people can boast that?
Most importantly, the academy is designed to be accessible for everyone. Whether you’re a complete novice or a seasoned duelist, our classes are tailored to suit your level. You won’t be thrown into advanced moves on your first day; instead, you’ll be guided step-by-step through the forms, ensuring that you learn at your own pace.
At Padawan Outpost, we have big dreams for the 7 Forms Saber Academy. Right now, our training sessions are based in the UK, to be more specific Mitcham, but we want to expand – and not just across the UK, but worldwide (we can dream okay!). Imagine having lightsaber training academies in every major city, with fans coming together to master the seven forms of combat. We want to create a community where fans of all ages and backgrounds can gather, learn, and share their love for the galaxy far, far away.
The more people who join the academy, the faster we can grow and bring lightsaber training to fans all across the UK.
And who knows? Maybe one day, we’ll take the 7 Forms Saber Academy global. Can you imagine joining lightsaber tournaments with fellow fans from around the world? The possibilities are endless, and we want you to be a part of it from the very beginning.
Excited to join? We’d love to have you! Whether you’ve been practising your lightsaber skills at home or you’re a complete newbie, our academy welcomes all levels. You don’t need to be a Jedi Master to get started – all you need is enthusiasm, a lightsaber, and the desire to learn something new.
Here’s how you can get involved:
Remember, this isn’t just about training. It’s about joining a community of like-minded people who share your love for Star Wars. So grab your lightsaber and come be a part of something special!
