360 Turn + Combo | LIGHTSABER TUTORIAL ft. @kyberlightsabers2393 | Michelle C. Smith {MUST WATCH}

I've been training with a saber for a couple of weeks now. I use a neopixel, it's got some heft to at 3.3lbs, and I've finally gained the confidence and mobility - not to mention strength, which has improved noticeably - to start incorporating turns and spins into my routine. I'll tell ya, it's a game changer. I've heard it said that coordination can't be taught, but I disagree with that. I'm a 6'2'', 200+ lb 31-year-old dude and usually pretty clumsy, but even just a couple of weeks at around 30 minutes a night and I've been seeing positive changes. Will I be doing Ray Park kick flips anytime soon? Probably not, but every step I've taken on the journey so far has been a step in the right direction. Practice, practice, practice, and you will get better at it.

PLS OPEN HAIR SO BEAUTY GOD BLESS YOU

HELLO BEAUTY MEM WONDERFUL JOB GOD BLESSING YOU OK BYE

Why do you do the wrist roll at noon and not midnight? 🤔

One definite area for improvement is cutting back on the “very simple“ and “very easy“ rhetoric. I understand that you are trying to make people feel like this is not very difficult, but that sort of description used at that frequency can be very frustrating for people trying to learn this who are having trouble. It makes people feel like they are doing something wrong, and that difficulty is not something that everyone, and I mean absolutely EVERYONE, experiences when they are trying to learn this. Just because it is easy for someone who has experience, it does not mean it will be easy for someone who is learning it for the first time. I basically do light saber spins every day now, but I remember my first time trying to learn even a simple flourish, and how frustrated I was in the first hour trying to learn that. Please be mindful of that.

You look so much like Boca Tan🤩

I love your lessons.! I have studied martial arts for many years, I do well with techniques that youre showing. do sai senpai

😍🥰❤💖

You are awesome. And I want to learn everything now! 😱👏👏👏

I wanna know how people spin around with a lightsaber without it hitting them or becoming wonky

Perfect

Imagine if she was enlisted in Star Wars cast:

Guess you could even smack Jason Stathams ass which movies did you act in i wish i would be younger i guess for stuntman im too old with 40 but all youre tourtorials look so great and make the person watch them feel that everything is makeable if you train hard i wish i could find a petsonal trainer like you

Had a few of those..sorry but kinda trash..

I just bought my first LS. I'm going to get this combo right after I receive it. Thanks n.n

Si es chingona

Thank you for teaching us all these cool tricks and skills. You are very kind and wise and talented. Been trying some of these lightsaber spins during quarantine and it really helps with lifting spirits and continuing forward. Practicing the Saber gives me something to look forward to everyday. And the feeling of accomplishment once a particular technique is achieved is such a great feeling. But couldn't do it without your guidance. Thank you so very much again Michelle. Means more than you know.

No space to practise as of yet but saving the videos so I can learn once I find the space. Thank you for being awesome and helping everyone you can with these tutorials

Would you like to join the Jedi council

Bad-ass moves! Very cool!

got my first saber today practice time

Finally a person who holds at the top like me

Love you Michelle!❤️🥰🤗

Amazing thank you!

Michelle did you tryed be cast in The Walking Dead! They need urgently bad asses in light sword habilities!!!

You definitely are badass 😲⚔

I would like to do saber spin but my house Is so small

I'm so happy you made this and the comment on the shoulder was something I had questions about because I just recently had my right shoulder operated on for the second time and it left me with a partial disability so this still gives me hope that I can reach my saber spinning goals with the help of your videos

Do you ever hit the book case 😉

The lady version of Ray Park. She would make a great inquisitor in a star wars series.

The blade came broken with my kit. I was disappointed with the Quality of everything. Not sure why everyone hates on saber-forge but that’s who I’ll be going with again after a kyber light. If your going to spend 200 plus on a saber I strongly recommend that you stay away from kyberlight I have two other saberforge hilts and both are amazing

Spotting is exactly how you do a tornado kick. Even ballerinas do this. Every competent martial arts instructor (Sifu, Sensei, etc) will teach you that very early. Well done Michelle. I respect your teaching more every episode.

You look like you're the best shape of your life. Awesome

Your amazing. I love the way you do your tutorials. They can teach anyone who puts forth the time and practice. Your definitely a master. Thank you for the videos. Keep up the great work. What is thy bidding my master?

This is literally what I aspire to do / be. I don’t know if I’d prefer a normal saber or staff, but you’ve definitely given me hope that I can do it.
You’re a force to be reckoned with that even Darth Sidious should be quaking in his dusty old throne.

Love u ❤️..

Your cat tower is so cute. Pretty kitty in the windoooooow there. What window where

Again, you are a very good instructor -- orienting the 3 o'clock and 6 o'clock for the learner's p.o.v.

Smoothswing is like the crayola yellow market meme. Once you go black you can never go back

The best advice I could give to someone seeking to become more fluid with their blade movement is simply this: Don't overthink it. When practicing a particular move or skill, try not to concentrate so hard on what you want to do, but rather clear your head and feel what you're doing. Calmly notice how speed and momentum effect the balance and spin of your blade during movement, while being both held in hand or released from your grip, free from hand... Don't try too hard to force a result, but play with it, draw from each experience, and learn to feel it. First become comfortable with the feel of your blade's weight, balance, and movement, and then work on moving your body in such fashion as to compliment the natural movement of your blade. It is synergy, that with practice becomes fluid and powerful. Don't force it, feel it. Take it slow, go with the flow, and on it's own blade and body will become partners in a most graceful yet deadly dance. Literally poetry in motion, beautiful to behold.

I hope I can be a professional badass someday. I mean, I'm already a badass, just not licensed.

Forget Mara Jade. We’re looking at Bo Katan right here.

So glad you're back! Always love your breakdowns... :)

I too am an emitter hilt holder. Namely because that is where the balance is and where people have most control over the weapon.
