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.

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!

[@amazingdragons279]

Please do more lightsaber tutorials! I'm a huge Star Wars fan, and this made my entire freaking month. I've been practicing for weeks! It's Awesome, and so are you!

[@juancarlosvaldes4538]

You are a true Jedi Master my dear! May the Force be with you!

that moment when you watch a video and immediately realize "this person could easily beat my ass".

Please link to video.

[@djstrongarmgmail]

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.

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

[@jprevatt]

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

[@zephyrstrife4668]

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

[@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.

[@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!!

[@sdearholt72]

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 💕🤯

[@germanxmascookie]

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

[@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.

[@MikeJenkins-of5kc]

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

[@duxedo380]

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

[@harleybynature]

Loved the bloopers at the end! They made my day! When you looked up at the light... LOL

[@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.

[@mariovaldes5057]

You're an inspiration to all those little girls who dream about becoming a Jedi. I'm gonna enroll my daugther in your Academy :)

[@tadomborngkrornhoung]

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

[@origami_canoe1952]

I have a couple of bruises already from missing and hitting my arms or legs haha. The bloopers at the end are very relatable.

[@OdonataOfficial]

Just bought an Ultra Saber for stunts. This video is great for beginners.

[@leemcgann6470]

I just found a new binge worthy channel!😁

[@kurtelliscalabio1023]

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

[@michelle-c-smith]

It's from Ultrasabers.com

[@zaineba7319]

She's the real wonder woman 😯 My inspiration !

[@pasquinilli]

Fantastic! Great job!!

[@aydenmcfly1362]

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

[@dam1371]

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

[@Phantom-hy2ix]

The force is strong with this one.

[@zombiefanjames]

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

[@the-original-ghost]

I watched one video and you said you was a bad ass ,but I was skeptical about said claim.So I watched a second video and you said you was a bad ass , but yet I was skeptical once more.So I watched a third video and you said you was a bad ass, and now I can concur that you are in fact a bad ass💪 plus you are real easy on the eyes👀 also.

[@Rashja]

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!

[@georgewatkins7259]

That Intro was Hot

[@Dblaster02]

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.

[@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!

[@animalyze7120]

Seriously BadAss Woman. Great video!

[@GameTrekkie]

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.

[@wayne2150]

Michelle, you are amazing! Cheers!

[@pasquinilli]

Really impressive! Thanks for sharing.

[@Dhha]

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!

[@petereed3947]

OMG! You are amazing! Filoni needs to hire you#

[@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

[@jeremychives]

I did it! I channeled the force and after quite a few failed attempts, I successfully smacked myself in the head with an obi wan hilt

[@brucemcmicking9614]

I am torn between how frikkin cool this looks, and how little I want to clobber myself.

[@Zakkarath]

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

[@Clairvoyant_D]

You make it look soo smooth & easy 😂

[@Tuhqa]

supa helpful!

[@yoyoty88]

I love how the saber slices through her room leaving yellow glowing burnt trails and she doesn't care at all

[@bostaffarts]

You explained it so well. Meanwhile i watched 100 times and i did not get the key. I love your skills - amazing. Hope it makes click soon :-)

[@michelle-c-smith]

Just keep working on it. You'll find it!

[@bostaffarts]

Michelle Christa Smith I got it! I can't go asleep tonight until i reached the goal. I practiced to 0:30 PM and next morning at 6:00AM stand up again for work - Crazy but i can't go to work with this Challenge in my mind :-D Normally i master the bo, but your video inspired me very much. Thank you. (Beautyful Fight-Woman - I would marry you!)

[@AliciaRenee554]

My whole family is amazed! This is awesome!

[@michelle-c-smith]

Love 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.

[@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

[@cosplay8561]

your few videos are amazing!

[@georgebowman1060]

Wish I had my camera on...after I watched this video, I went right outside at 1:20 am at night and got that head catch on the first try lol 😆...felt good ha!

[@hopperhelp1]

Why wasn’t this in my recommended sooner? This is amazing!

[@spicytrashpanda]

"If it feels awkward you're doing it right.". That's advice I'm saving for later.

[@binauralboost7401]

Thank you for all these awesome tutorials.

[@paulhouse7946]

Impressive......most impressive......

[@bostaffarts]

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

[@cmdrrespawn1329]

the FIRST six seconds and already intrigued,wowed, and excited! You Madam know how to make an entrance... “Hello there•

[@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.

[@howardnenno1806]

I had to break this down into pieces, still working on each, but finally look less like a clumsy dork and more like a skilled dork.

[@jean-claudelopez8929]

bonjour très belle démonstration

[@euthehiro]

I broke a lot of things here, but I love it :)

[@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!

[@rastanz]

Followed a link from a Star Wars group on facebook... Very cool video, wonderful and smooth technique... I may try this so let my bruises and damaged sabers begin lol. Love the bloopers at the end of the video... subbed :-D

[@ImpossibleHobbit01]

After seeing the intro, I was wondering if you were a baton Twirler or something, then I looked at your other videos and the description and saw I was right! Baton twirlers make awesome Jedi!

[@Dblaster02]

Great video. I'll learn that for sure... Hope to be half as good as you.

[@drewsiciliano7602]

Insanely helpful thank you sooooo much!

[@kittenclaws5775]

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

Now, to see if my stomach will allow me to do this without getting in the way :D. Seriously impressive stuff.
