The Academy teaches children and adults martial arts with the use of lightsabers |
Faisal Mian, martial arts expert and a self-confessed Star Wars fan, set up the Silver Sabres Combat Academy in Finsbury Park, north London, just two years ago where he teaches children with the use of 'LED sabre' and fencing masks.
According to him, the lightsabers help the children to keep their focus as it helps them light up their imaginations as well as the blades. He believes that lightsabers are ideal training weapons saying, "I'd been looking for a way to fence without using steel or wood, because for those you have to wear so much armour you can't move naturally. So as a practice tool, this is absolutely ideal."
Faisal Mian and his team was able to produce a martial art that reflects the famous science fiction movie.

Children who enrolled at the school were not only encouraged to dress up as their favorite character, they are also given the chance to make their own costumes. They also learn techniques passed down from generation of fencing experts.
After the British Fencing endorsed the disciplines, they started allowing other teachers to train both children and adults and also, to start new coaching programmes.
