Description

********************************************************************************************************************

With the aim of making the application of movements pleasant and the results easier to achieve, we have chosen to use the observational-imitative method, which is the most suitable approach for this type of training. We have designed the structure of the course focusing on the details of the movements and making the different sections self-explanatory, leaving the videos, designed specifically, the task of accompanying you in the educational path. The texts, in English, are dedicated to the understanding of the specific nomenclature and help to understand the key elements of the manoeuvres.

Have you ever found yourself fantasizing about the combat you saw at the cinema, wanting to become a real Jedi just like them? Haven’t you ever used umbrellas or broom handles to simulate using a light saber to fight your enemies? Just think if you could enter that world full of heroes from a galaxy far, far away...

From today, thanks to LudoSport Evolve, your dreams can come true!

The decade-long experience of LudoSport instructors and athletes, 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.


By following the valuable advice that Dante, our online coach, provides, you will have the opportunity to learn light saber brandish techniques and receive essential advice for becoming a true master of Light Saber Combat, wherever you are and at any time of the day.

Spin, freestyle, flow, trick, are all terms used to identify a way of using light sabers to create cool movements that make people go “wow”. But what if I told you that the art of brandishing is not just about the ability to create spectacular effects? There are other reasons and advantages for mastering it too, and it takes your saber mastery to another level. By correctly managing posture and centre of gravity, is possibile perform dynamic moves that become art, expertise and true spectacles, from which offensive and defensive potential are also created by those who really have full control of their saber.

Through this course you’ll undertake an immediate and entertaining learning path which will help master even the most difficult techniques. Thanks to visual aid and simple and direct language, you’ll manage to understand and execute the techniques taught in a simple, intuitive way.

You will learn Brandishing, an effective, sophisticated and spectacular fencing training that brings several benefits to both athletes or practitioners of fencing and other sports.

Brandishing gets every part of the body involved and is, de facto, a training form with both aerobics and functional components. It will help you improve your coordination, reactivity and equilibrium. From a technical point of view, it will augment confidence with sword handling, this means your ability to optimize your movements, understanding the leverage effects of the hilt and the fundamental role of finger mobility. Through brandishing you’ll also learn how to make your sword move smoothly and effectively in space.


At the end of the course, you will able to:

  • Create spectacular movements with your Light Saber;

  • Fully control your saber, regardless of the style or technique applied during combat;

  • Achieve the highest level of confidence with your saber, so that you can control it expertly, even in the most complex situations, and learning to use it as if it was just a true extension of your own arm;

  • Add to your knowledge and training (if you are already a Brandish course pupil);

  • Use the online lessons to go over what you already know whenever and wherever you want to (if you are pupil of the subsequent forms);

  • Have an interactive reference always on hand to help you with your lesson plan (if you are an instructor);

The techniques and exercises showed in the video lessons must be considered a supplement to LuduSport’s Sport Light Saber Fencing styles, which are brought into competition by athletes members of our International Network.

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 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.

I graduated from the acting course at the National School of Cinema in Rome in 2018, and straight after I became a part of this first enormous permanent immersive Italian show created by Marco Balich together with scientific collaboration from the Vatican Museums. The show was called Universal Justice and I play the main role of Michelangelo for a full year.

To the passion for acting and film direction, I added the passion for Elearning systems, and I specialized in the creation of Online Courses in which, whatever was the subject (from lightsaber fencing techniques to artificial intelligence technologies), I always tried to include all my commitment and my creativity.

LudoSport comes to life in Milan, Italy, from the work and passion of three friends who combine their skills and create a new combat sport that uses an iconic weapon: a sword with a blade of pure energy. They create a system of different forms of armed combat, progressive in complexity and refinement. Around them comes a group of enthusiasts that grows beyond national borders and generates, through the common language of the sword they use, a worldwide community linked by ancient values such as sport and deep as the bond that binds them.

Ludo (“game”) and Sport are the two sides of a single coin: guaranteed fun through a healthy and -above all- always different physical practice: the Light Saber Combat created by the LudoSport Founder Masters is in fact a set of different fencing disciplines structured for progressive learning. The training path is rich and stimulating, going from the single sword to the two short swords and stick techniques: all entirely original and designed around an iconic and fascinating weapon, a blade of pure energy that cuts everything but itself.
