This course will take you on an exciting learning path for “Form 1”, the first of many styles codified by Ludosport, originally inspired by the characteristics that define the style of “Jedi combat”, that is known as “Shii-Cho” in the well-known Star Wars sage. In Ludosport it has evolved, taking on an independent identity from its imaginary one that is was originally inspired by, becoming a real, complete form of fencing that can be used in competitive combat that takes place as part of the well-known sports competition circuit: the LudoSport Network.

In this course, every movement is described in detail to guarantee that anyone can learn and apply them.

The decade-long experience of LudoSport instructors and athletes is now online, giving everyone the possibility of discovering this new, exciting combat sport, that is free of any violent elements and actually brings together all types of people.

LUDOSPORT OVERVIEW

The birth of LudoSport

Sporting Light Saber Combat is an original sporting discipline created and codified by Simone Spreafico, Gianluca Longo and Fabio Monticelli starting from 2005 and regularly carried out as part of a teaching system named “LudoSport” from 2006.

This sport:

• Is inspired and created in all its techniques using an imaginary weapon with a blade of pure energy that can cut everything except itself, in any direction;

• It is a form of combat, therefore based on competition;

• it is a form of sporting combat, therefore inspired by clear, structured rules and principles.

Sporting Light Saber Combat is divided into several combat forms, known as “Styles”, that differ from each other but that are perfectly compatible when executed and used with each other: each of them can be used in combat with the others.

Teaching is structured with a progression in the complexity and physical commitment required, to allow easy learning for anyone as a part of a gradual path.

Our principles

Sporting Light Saber Combat was conceived and is promoted each day in observance of the principles of loyalty, discipline, fair play, respect, passion and a sense of belonging that characterise the sport in the modern Olympic ideal.

On this matter, LudoSport has defined its own key rule, Se.Cu.Ri. (Servizio, Cura, Rispetto - Service, Care, Respect):

• Servizio is each athlete’s willingness to support all their companions on a path to technical improvement.

• Cura is shown through the control exercised in techniques and in general attention to not harming our companions

• Rispetto comes from self-awareness, awareness of our strengths and weaknesses, and leads to a correct way of interacting with others, in the awareness that we must not underestimate anyone, whatever their rank or experience.

The technical execution of movements requires specific control training.

In our sport, we do not use protection excessively as, by limiting freedom of movement, they also limit our freedom of expression.

We are not medieval knights in suits of shiny armour, we do not like masks as they hide the face of those competing in the arena, and we also believe that excessive protections may - even subconsciously - provide a psychological justification of an almost random use of the athlete's saber: “Well, my opponent is protected by padding”.

We do not intend light saber fencing to be an unsightly brawl. Control is at the very heart of truly mastering our saber and guarantees sensible, technical movements. This is why practising control is essential for us, and when practised correctly, it allows us to drive our blade forward at 140 km/hour in a fraction of a second, and then stop it exactly where and when we want.

All our members are appreciated for the quality of their performance rather than for any victory they may achieve. All genuine desires to work together for their companions and the society are also rewarded.

LudoSport guarantees a real situation of equal opportunities for all Light Saber Combat athletes, where race, age, gender, different skills, social and economic class, political and religious beliefs are never prejudiced.

Using the meticulous educational research conducted by its Masters, LudoSport has also driven its own founding principles to the point of being able to accommodate disabled people, proving that sport can truly overcome any physical barriers.

Why is Ludosport right for you?

Right from the start, LudoSport aimed to be an excellence in the realm of sporting innovation.

Thanks to the serene environment created in each of its structures, LudoSport creates a positive context for promoting and sustaining an ethical culture in sport, involving both its instructors and athletes, creating an atmosphere that stimulates consistent behaviour and respect for all those involved.

Thanks to its founding rules, the sport transmits the message of respect in all forms and opportunities. In this way, the sport is always dominated by behaviour based on fair play, sharing and mutual help.

The play and sporting sides of the sport offered by LudoSport are favourable to mental and physical well-being, protecting the athletes’ fundamental right to take part in a sport where competition is healthy and not negative for those involved.

LudoSport favours and promotes socialising within its structure, both during the sporting activities and also outside of training, creating positive contexts for spending time together and giving everyone a role, regardless of the level of technical preparation they have achieved. The educational value of “merit” is also included in a social value, rewarding personal initiatives that are helpful for members as a whole.
