Lightsaber Combat
The First Form
There are 7 Forms of Lightsaber Combat. Each Form is a different style of fighting. A Jedi uses them all in battle, and usually chooses one to specialize in. "Form I" is here because that is the Form a Jedi Student should start with. The other Forms are for Padawans and above to learn and use only, that is why they are not here. Practice what you can with this Form, It has many good uses.
