Lightsaber Academy · Corporate Team Building · Half & Full Day
Lightsaber choreography, martial arts, theatre and improv - combined into an unforgettable development experience that builds presence, confidence, communication and resilience.
Lightsaber Teambuilding is a corporate development academy unlike anything else. Participants learn real lightsaber choreography and stage combat, experience martial arts and theatre exercises, and leave with a filmed scene - a duel or short performance - that is uniquely theirs.
The choreography, the Aikido, the improv - these are the method. The real outcomes are the four capacities of embodied intelligence that every high-performing professional needs.
"Most corporate training happens from the neck up. Presence, awareness, influence live in the body. And they have to be practiced..."
Know how you show up - your patterns, your triggers, your default style under pressure. The body doesn't lie. Embodied exercises reveal what the mind hides.
Regulate your state, maintain composure, and choose your response rather than react. Martial arts and stage combat are the ultimate classroom for this.
Read the room. Attune to others. Theatre and improv sharpen the sensitivity to people that makes great communicators and leaders.
Lead, inspire, and move people - with presence, not position. The final performance is where all four capacities come together.
We learn about your team, your goals, and your context. Every session is shaped around who you are and what you need.
Lightsaber training, Aikido and improv exercises, gamified development activities - building toward the final performance.
Teams perform their choreographed duel or short play - filmed, celebrated, and kept as a lasting memory of the day.
A structured debrief connects the experience to your team's real challenges, so that the learning lands and sticks.
Every Lightsaber Academy session is built around a core experience - then layered with development content tailored to your team. Lightsabers provided for up to 16 participants. Delivered in English or French.
The heart of the academy. Participants learn real stage combat sequences, building focus, coordination, trust, and the ability to perform under pressure. No experience needed.
Core · All SessionsEvery session culminates in a filmed lightsaber duel or short play. A choreographed scene your team creates, rehearses, and performs together - a video they will actually want to share. Videographer available on request.
Core · All SessionsAikido-based exercises that develop presence, grounding, and the ability to stay centred under pressure. Drawing on 20 years of Aikido practice, these translate directly to leadership and self-management.
