Everybody has looked at a broom or baseball bat and wished they were Jedi from a galaxy far, far away for just a second. Do not feel bad about owning up to it. Lightsaber Academy is a series of training videos designed to make your child move like some of the franchise’s best characters. While these stunts make adolescents and adults end up as viral videos on YouTube, kids get to actually live out their Star Wars fantasy with toys and merchandise that come out every year. The films are available on the StarWarsKids website, just in time for families to pack in one final summer hurrah before sending the kids back to class.
Each video guides viewers through the steps of learning and practising choreography based on the moves of fan-favourite characters like Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader. The website is launching with four episodes, two of which educate youngsters on how to duel like Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader, and the other two of which teach the ways of the Light and the Dark Side, and how it affects on how each party fights.
Adult fans of the franchise can benefit from the training videos by gaining insight into the method and approach that went into crafting the performances of franchise stars like Ewan McGregor. As a result, the obvious question arises: Will there be a Darth Maul episode? What if students who knew how to use two lightsabers at once were considered too cool for school? Here’s a rundown of the information covered in each episode for kids:
