This is where the fun begins. 🙌🙌💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

I remember at 11 years old begging my mother to take me to see this new movie Star Wars. I had to hear my friends talking about this crazy move for almost a year before I was able to see it for myself. The high level of energy and extreme excitement that exuded while friends discussed the move was something I wanted to be a part of. My mom finally gave in and took us to the local theater where we stood in line for what seemed like days. It was 1978 when I was finally sitting in that theater chair about to watch the very move that would change my life forever. Nothing like Star Wars had every been done before and needless to say, I was blown away! It's hard to say what Star Wars means to me because like many others, it dives deep and even personal on some levels. I can say that even before it got its title of A New Hope, it gave hope to a generation like nothing else had for the time. When the movie concluded and I was leaving the theater, my mind raced with so many new possibilities that were impossible just 2 hours before. It was truly a magical experience for me as a child. I would have never guessed that this phenomenon would continue and be what it is today. 7 Lightsaber forms? Wow so cool. I will continue to watch all Star Wars good or bad because it is and always will be an amazing world with so many possibilities. Carly, I love your channel! I am so envies of all you get to do and everyone you get to meet. Lol Keep up the good work!

This is easily one of your best videos

I really wish Cin Drallig should survive of order 66 and I love to hear you read your awesome reader

Hiiiiii Carly!!! 👋 😄 life long Star Wars fan here... love your vids!! After watching you spin lightsabers the last 2 months, inspired me to me buy my 1st lightsaber since Episode 3 lol! Picked up a NeoSabers rbg gold/black hilt, orange blade. Having fun trying to spin it around, I guess you're never too old haha!! 😅 byyyeeeee!!!

Forms I, II, VI and VII are my favorites, but Form VI: Niman in particular calls to me. Though it can be regarded as mediocre in it's raw state, I feel it does indeed benefit more creatively-minded or "cerebral" combatants who bring strategic cunning and innovation to the table, along with various tools, tricks and general combative knowledge in their arsenal, especially the Force itself. This can only be achieved at the highest of levels by exceptional minds, but Niman could potentially be the most potent of the 7 Forms, perhaps second only to Juyo/Vaapad at mastery levels. It's also a great basis for Jar'Kai, and shares a historical connection to the discipline (in Legends at least). Exar Kun and Revan are notable masters in addition to Maul, and I think even Palpatine was said to highly favor it apart from Juyo.

This is the kind of a video that I've waited from you, this is amazing!! I like star wars so much and try to spin but also trying to learn and knowing the knowledge of the lightsaber forms and combat because it makes me feel like the real Star Wars fan. I hope u make a lot more video like this and a lightsaber forms tutorial. We always support you keep it up !!! 💪💪‼‼

Your videos always makes my day.

Ty for your wisdom Master Carly. I will meditate on this, and let the Force guide my technique. ~

Makashi and Shien/Djem-So are the styles I'm trying to master.

As a martial artist that practiced Taekwodo for 15 years, Form IV aka Ataru suits my style as I want to finish a battle quickly and precisely. If offense is not the way to go, I'll switch it up to Form V, aka Djem so for close quarters and defensive combat.

Thank you so much for making this video on the forms for us Carly! It really helped clarify everything! This is the way!

WHOO!!!!!! The title card of your name is legendary, and my forms if I were to wield them is Ataru and Djem So.

Loved this video Carly! Thanks so much!😊

Great video Carly! Just wanna add that Maul was also proficient in Juyo. He used it against Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon. :)

I got Maul Lightsaber from sabertheory and most suitable form while using double-bladed saber is Form VI for me. However, when I get my second single lightsaber, I have realized Makashi (Form II) is pretty suitable for me aswell during the single saber vs single saber combats. Recorded some videos with my friends and already posted them at instagram 😇 I started this hobby bc of U carly and I don't need to do cardio after heavy workout because of saber spinning/combat activities 🎉😂

YESSSS JUST YES

This was a great Saber lesson, thank u Master Carly. I will definitely take these lessons and practice them with my lightsaber. And I will look for that STAR WARS book on these form's. Stay safe and may the force be with u

Always love your amazing content Carly! Keep up the great work!! ❤

This was an excellent video, you nailed it. May the force be with you and all your viewers.

This guide is awesome even though I grew up with watching Star Wars over and over again thanks Ms.Carly

"Soresu practitioners often seek to resolve conflicts peacefully" Darth Zannah - "Peace is a lie!"

This is insane, i love vids like this!!

Awesome vid 😁 you forgot to mention Mace Windu used vapaad haha I love hearing about the lightsaber forms and I didn't expect you to make a video of this. Maybe you'll give us more lore vids?

Awesome video and great job on explaining the light saber forms .

I would choose Forms 2 & 3.

Brooo this video was so cool! Lightsaber Lore was something I didnt know I needed! Keep stuff like this coming carly. The editing and visuals were fantastic

.....THANK YOU!.....

I remember when they made the Star Wars fighting game, Masters of Teras Kasi (probably spelled it wrong, lol) on the playstation. Great game, in my opinion, anyways. Love the videos! Keep up the great work!

You did an excellent job looking at the lore of different Forms of the Lightsaber Combat! Keep up the good work, I just found your videos and you 100% have my support. Also I just love Lore videos from these kinds of series whenever it shows up in my feed, Star Wars, Halo, Warhammer, that sort of thing. So Keep it Up the Lore, I can't get enough of it :)

THAT WAS AWESOME, thank you. Since its inception I've really taken to the backwards, reverse grip that Star Killer and Ahsoka Tano uses. But as a Sith I really enjoyed the way you describe that last one, using my emotions to battle. May the Force serve you well.

Form V seems like the most effective of the forms. I would use shien most of all I think

Thank you for the lesson Master Carly.

so many variables so many stories that the mystique and mystery remain fascinating for those sensitive and passionate about the Force understand the excellence of this video ❤

Love your content Carly!! Keep it up!!❤️❤️

form VI of course. in decision theory, heuristics/strategies have a way of kind of blending and also disappearing altogether (like in Chess, at the bottom layer of logic, there is no offense or defense, just the best move(s) to achieve an objective. with perfect play, a draw). its really interesting to see that reflected in Star Wars lore.

Yo I learned a lot from this video keep up the good work 😎

Yes! This is awesome

Like it; have more to say at later time n this was refreshing.

Awesome knowledge Darth Carly

Great video Carly!

👏 👏 👏! Astounding! Stay sharp duelists!

This was an excellent video with wonderful editing!

I’ve always wondered what the other lightsaber forms were I had an idea of what they were but I understand it better now this was interesting and very informative. Keep up the great work Carly!!! MTFBWY!

Carly you are my yoda I learn so much from you keep up the great work

Rey teaching actual lightsaber combat instead of just using it as a cudgel? That would be a positive surprise for one 😅

Carly, this guide literally helped me a lot. To learn more, the jedi way and get better with my lightsaber technique. ⚔️💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

wonderfully explanation of the forms and what is your favorite form.

So so cool

Dooku was probably the most proficient master of it in 1000 years too.

Honestly I see myself as a Niman practitioner. I love the idea of the force and to add it to my arsenal of fighting techniques as well as saber I think it’s a perfect form we just haven’t seen a Jedi use it to it’s full potential

To realize what form reasonates the most with me, I tend to think which style I was good at when I was practicing Wushu. It is a whole philosophy, definitely. To us who have some experience, it is a bit easier to understand both our body movement and "battle mentality", so we can say for sure what forms of those in the video would fit us the best. So, for me, as I was practicing both northern (mostly bare hand forms, but also dao and pudao, my fav weapon) and southern (mostly with weapons, nandao and bo) styles, I have found that I was naturally tending to move better in southern styles, so I believe a more defensive form like the the 3rd one would fit me the best. On the other hand, those that practice northern styles would certainly reasonate better with e.g. the 6th or the 7th form. But I am absolutely not against those who create their own taolu (forms), as it is "creative" and creativity is freedom. May the force be with you.

Now you have to show us all 7 forms with your sabers. O, and look good doing so!

Carly King You're Phenomenal I Enjoyed the video

Djem-So is the Chosen One's chosen style so it must be the best. He bested thousands of Jedi with it afterall.

You’re amazing.

Live your channel Do more tutorials like the obi/ani

Carly can tell interesting stories! That's it, I'm a Carly fan ❤

Yes!!!!!!🎉👊✨

Playing as a Guardian Tank in SWTOR, as well as just always admiring Obi-Wan and then Kanan Jarrus, and me just being a large target, Soresu is the way to go for me. Also as much as I love sparring, I'm always afraid of hurting someone since I'm a big guy, so defense is just natural for me.

I'll either go with Soresu or Form 5. The problem with Soresu is that it's mostly defensive, and sometimes you need to kick ass and switch over to an offensive posture.

Great vid 👍

A good start, but it would be far more helpful, as someone who learned from Maul himself, for you to demonstrate these forms to us padawans... perhaps a separate video for each form showing some basic drills and focussing on saber movements?

Great video! I'd love to see one about the Legends forms of combat. (jar'kai is pretty cool 😎)

Great video!!!!! Being as tho Darth Maul is my favorite sith I gotta tell u he is known for his mastery in Juyo, but I’m sure sidious trained him in form 6 as well. 😅

Great video! Please do a video on fast, slow and medium style too!

I'd probably try and use a strong mix of Form 3 and 5

The Way of The Vornskr OFCCC!!!!

Mace Windu saber making "KKKRAKA" sounds is hilarious.

Darn...I'm stuck between Forms III and IV. I appreciate the non-violence of Soresu but I love that "flow-like" feeling I would get from close dodges and acrobatics a-la Ataru... Should I ask other Lightsaber enthusiasts' input or should I do that thing where I just take one of those "Which ___ are you???" personality tests? idk. Super helpful vid btw since I didn't even know there were different Lightsaber forms until now.

Ma’am is really our master, now also giving a lightsaber form lesson

Hybridizing Shien, Ataru, and Makashi would definitely be my option

I am fasincated all by this, have been ever since i frist came a cross this about 4 years ago and its partly how i came a cross your channel a good few years ago` i have looked in to this think i even made a comment about the subjected ages ago lol 2fun facts 1- their is sport based on light sabre fighting called Ludo sport did you know kit fisto started off as a back ground extra in attack of the clones before he appeared on geonois , my only issue with the forms is it doesnt account for differeny types of light sabres like kylo's borad sword which would be based european fighting or Hema or Senya Tirall spear type weopns in the enternal empire trailer or dual whelding users and also when ezrea created his cutless looking sabre he basically created a new form because it had a inbuilt lazer or and double bladed could be based off the european quater staff or a more nibble east asian maybe chinese version ,, i just love star wars minus to seqauls but very good very in depth

Nice video ❤

Great video. What about Jar’Kai?

Just to answer your question, I practice all forms, duel wield and staff included. Just Like Kas’im from legends would like to master all aspects of lightsaber combat.

Hello there Carly!

Yo Carly King, the way you about the 7 lightsaber form is good. And I play the Star Wars episode 3 game the jedi master you talk about. I fought him, and he was so hard to beat.

The form of rejection.. been dealing with it my entire life. Grey Jedi to the end!

To be honest with you I am also a Star Wars fan.

Another old SW book I had to import from the US, thanks Carly, I'll never financially recover from watching your videos 😂

Thanks for the primer on lightsaber forms Carly. I honestly wish there were more cool girls like you who loves Star Wars. Thanks again! ;-)

thank you for this video. I wonder how close these forms are taught in earth sword fighting techniques

It would be a cool twist for the new film to actually focus on lightsaber training instead of just being background to politics and conflict. This could be an opportunity since peace has been restored for the moment. Especially if they plan to create a trilogy.

I prefer form 0. It's called OOPS. It uses a light saber with an invisible light wavelength blade. "oops did your arm just fall off? I wonder how that happened?" :P

I’ve been learning these seven forms for 10 years now I’m a master at form seven

The ones that resonate with me is Juyo Djem so and Makashi

Soresu ftw 💜💜💜soresu all the way 💜💜💜

You the best

Carly , have you seen 1 Darth Vader v/s Obi - Wan Kenobi / full Final fight , 2 Why was Vader smiling after Obi - Wan Defeated him in the final ! This is a must i'm not sure if you seen it ....

There's too many to choose from. I can't decide.

Form 7

Is there anything preventing force users from mixing and matching all forms to exploit their opponents, apart from time & practice required to master them?

Form 6

Yo Carly King, I have a question: If lucasfilm makes a new Star Wars film or a series, do you think you be part of it because I think you do great

What's your crystal color Carly?

Hello There 👋 OMG you are so bonita 💕 Love the videos! May The Force be with You....... Always!

My preferred saber form; attack and defend/kill or be killed.

Carly !!! It’s been awhile.. just wanted to say hi
