Ayyyyy.

That humor is a little FORCE ‘d. :P

[@DazraelArianos]

And how to design a lightsaber. She needs a shorter blade or a heavier back end to adjust her balance point. She does spin a stick well though.

[@lucbegin7334]

Impressive. Most impressive.

A straight kick to the stomach/chest would nullify all the fancy, cool looking, exaggerated, unnecessary movements.

[@DazraelArianos]

@@djstrongarmgmail yup. Pure performance. Use this in a fight and you're dead. Edit: It is one hell of a performance though.

One word can sum this up!!! Subscribed!!!!!

[@ariellebliz2252]

I'm a newbie to any kind of staff spinning/lightsaber spinning, but I found your videos recently. I'm just using a duct-tape wrapped stick from my woods, but your eloquence and comprehensive teaching style has allowed me to really learn and practice these skills before I finally commit to buying a lightsaber! Well worth a subscribe, thank you for sharing your knowledge in such a professional manner!

[@archibaldhaddock5474]

You should teach Daisy Ridley. 😄👌

[@tonebone7449]

She should BE Daisy Ridley.

[@ctfangirl]

Have you seen the video where Daisy actually sees M fight.

[@jprevatt]

Daisy Ridley viewed these tutorials & her mind was blown!! So freakin #Badass 🙌🎉🎉🔥🔥🔥😁

Idk why but as a lefty I love watching tutorials like this so I can mirror the video

@@michelle-c-smith 4 years later look at ya!! Been loving your videos for inspiration. It was watching your Halloween staff video and someone I met who started fire spinning that started my journey ❤️‍🔥

[@Briansgate]

I was trying to go to bed. This is just hypnotizing.

[@elliotkingaby5312]

And there was me thinking the "Obi/Ani spin" couldnt look any cooler. Thanks M as always brilliant lesson and thanks for making it so simple.

[@MementoMoriXIII]

Finally i found someone who understands this beutiful art....... THANK YOU.

[@aaranbarber895]

Heya, I have just found you recently and got to try the High/low whip part today.

[@dam1371]

I’ve learned a few different styles but that one is really cool I can’t wait to try this one out

[@kurtelliscalabio1023]

A better Assaj Ventress! btw where can I find that kind of lightsaber?

[@michelle-c-smith]

It's from Ultrasabers.com

[@JKolman1179]

Michelle, I love you! LOL, no seriously. I'm awful at this and I'm trying to get into cosplay and this is helping so much, no to mention, it's quite a workout. My favorite part is the mistakes at the end because a lot of times you don't seem human. Seeing that even you make mistakes makes me feel better.

[@michelle-c-smith]

We're all humans and perfectly imperfect. Enjoy your journey. :D

[@zombiefanjames]

if anyone deserves to have a hampton's custom sabre, it's this woman

[@duxedo380]

Thank you for these tutorials. I have no issues following along and learning quickly. Thank you, thank you!

[@tadomborngkrornhoung]

Excellent job, clear explanation with examples, step by step, then full speed was also shown to prove the techniques, thanks ...

[@colleenjohnson7951]

Oh my gosh. I am binging your videos because I want to have a saberstaff, and it isn't enough to just HAVE one, I have to know how to wield it too, of course. Your clear, step by step videos are going to be a MASSIVE help, exactly the tutorials I am looking for. ......and your out-takes at the end are hilarious.

[@dejanjovanovic2298]

Just a head catch more, and it is done. I practiced it right now with a small kali stick, in purpose of memoriseing. No space in the room for practiceing head catch. I now i will drop it a few times before the first clumsy catch. But no need to hurry. Your videos are a great fun. I practiced back pass even with a spade while i was working in my yard. Why not to make work entertaining. these days i'll find some longer piece of wood and practice all this with a head catch.

[@germanxmascookie]

My 4 year old and I are addicted to these videos.

[@Phantom-hy2ix]

The force is strong with this one.

[@nebula0024]

I'll probably never try those amazing moves myself, but I do have to compliment your teaching style. Very clear instructions and visual demonstrations. Cheers! :)

[@michelle-c-smith]

Thank you!

[@maryzenkungfu]

Thanks to your bloopers at the end I feel ok about what a clumsy mess I still am! Going to practice now. Thanks for your tutorial!!

[@kittenclaws5775]

Ah! We always called it the "Anakin spin" or the "Plum Blossom Flourish" xD

[@aydenmcfly1362]

This is a great way to spread (martial) flow arts to people that wouldn't normally find them!

what a wasted opportunity, she would've made an excellent Mara Jade.

I added these moves into the routines I learned from Dark Cerberus. Thanks Michelle for these lessons. I can actually catch it almost every time.

Hmm I think this is one of the first videos I've seen that your not using your flowsaber. I want one of them so bad.... I love your channel it's helped with my flow so much. Still trying to master my catches. Those around the neck rolls andcatches you do are amazing... GOALS

[@unchartedparkourinreallife1362]

you should have been rey

[@dimitriusconstantine5732]

She would be the one to kill Rey! and bring balance to the force!

[@AllenBiggsTV]

She should be Jaina Solo.

[@Callsign_Kishin]

Mara Jade. Bring back the legends lore to canon. Fuck abrams and johnson smh.

[@djstrongarmgmail]

Rey should have had better writers.

[@paintballmonkey666]

Nah, Michelle is too confident and bad ass to play rey, rey was supposed to be untrained and a total noob to lightsabers...... that doesn't really parallel with Michele

[@binauralboost7401]

Thank you for all these awesome tutorials.

[@leemcgann6470]

Awesome I just found your channel. My 13 teen year old daughter and I have been looking for something to do together. And I think this is it. She loves to cosplay and this will give her that extra boost in confidence she’s looking for.

[@bostaffarts]

Thank you Michelle. After many times watching and practicing now i finally got it :-)

[@imapseudonym1403]

Looks great. I just wish I could do any of it. Just too old and arthritic to do so. But I'm glad kids today are enjoying and trying out such fun things!

I realize this tutorial is from 2017 but I almost didn't recognize you Michelle with your hair being longer. You truly are a professional badass 💕🤯

[@zephyrstrife4668]

30 seconds into the epic saber spinning video I was intrigued... you had me at "Hello there..."

[@Zakkarath]

That was quite helpful actually.... the best tutorial so far....

[@TheNewton]

Great instruction style and purple motions trails make this a fun watch. 9:13 is what lightsabers should look like.

I know I'm not going to learn just by watching the video but it's a pleasure. You're such a great instructor. I don't even have my very first staff hahahaha...But I'm looking forward to it!

[@a.o.9594]

Won’t lie took out my board sword to see if I can do this. Never was fond the whip”flowering” prefer straight on attack technique. Thought I give it a try again. Not sure how much your light saber weighs but 15lbs of steel all I can say I had to switch hands after awhile. Glad you showed outtakes too gives encouragement. Hit my calf thankfully I was wearing jeans not so bad. Also just sitting hear typing this out after man I can feel my shoulder blades screaming dang good work out.

[@gesaameliepetersen5470]

awesome video! thx a lot! I will try this tomorrow in my garden.

[@michelle-c-smith]

My pleasure. Have fun!

[@snowyprince3103]

A fast learner is one that learns the skill just by watching without being instructed. I can take the first few seconds of the video and simply figure it out. Now, I'm not saying i'll do perfect, but with a few days' practice i'll be moving on.

[@airoba]

Awesome skills! Thanks for sharing! May the force be with you!!

[@cosplay8561]

please do some full videos that are not just a lesson, but honestly your flow is amazing and would love to see you just go all out with a blade. at least one video of that, but love your other lesson videos especially with a full staph.

[@cosplay8561]

ive been searching for amazing saber spinns online and while i love being able to learn, its also amazing to just find the most skilled in the craft of spinning

Honorable Lord Smith! I love your work and am humbled by your skills! I'm trying to get a feel for this slick skill, but I'm struggling. Can this be done with a longer staff? My preferred staff is about my own height. Fantastic content! Wishing you fame and fortune!
