Skill Notes

  • Lightsaber Lifts: Stand tall, weights in hand. As you press the weights overhead, visualize your lightsaber deflecting enemy shots.
  • Evasive Rolls: Start in a downward dog position, swoop down to the ground and glide forward, then push back up to the starting pose, imagining rolling under a low barrier.
  • Force Push: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, dumbbells at chest level. Push them straight out as if using the Force, resisting the dark side with each rep.
