Jax deactivated his Lightsaber observing the students practicing their techniques. Braze was solid though a bit sloppy. "Easy there Braze," Jax said. "Yes, you want to be powerful but at the same time you want to be precise. Control your strength and make sure that your technique is on point. Just because it's a power move doesn't mean you can be sloppy. The Outer Ring's moves are powerful but controlled."
Nathan on the other hand deployed precise and powerful blows almost with Droid like precision. While impressive, Jax could sense that there was a darkness looming inside of him. If he wasn't careful, such aggressiveness could lead to the Dark Side. "Very impressive form Nathan," Jax commented. "But be sure to breathe and remember, your attacks may be aggressive but temper it with compassion. Aggression can be the seeds for rage so make sure your mind is calm."
It wasn't an easy task for Jedi, they were expected to be peacekeepers but at times of war, the fog of war can drive any Jedi mad with rage. Jax should know as he succumbed to the darkness multiple times. Myvette was working hard to improve on her technique, but her moves were wracked with indecision and tentativeness. As her Master, Jax wanted more out of Myvette in fact he thought of a form that can help her reach her full potential as a swordswoman. Still, the three rings were a good introduction on what he wanted out of Myvette. "Don't be so hard on yourself," Jax communicated telepathically to Myvette. "I don't expect perfection in a day, it takes months to truly master this style. So take it slow Myvette, take a breath and go through the technique slowly."
He went to Gweneth and smiled. "Ah," Jax said. "If you want to use a Staff than hold your hands a few meters apart and then raise it over your shoulder and perform a horizontal slash and then another slash using the opposite end of your staff."
Jax used a double-bladed saber when he was a Padawan. He had a lot of fun with it, but it was too unwieldy and he quickly changed it after a few years. Lily was the second best, a bit sloppy but again, he wasn't expecting perfection. "Solid work Lily," Jax said. "Now speed ramp your technique and watch your footing."
After about 30 minutes of observing them practicing, Jax raised his hand. "Good work everyone," Jax said. "Now we move on to the Middle Ring."
