Veren smiled, then looked pointedly at her lightsaber. "Normally, I would request that you use a curved training saber, but seeing as the point here is to be able to switch styles with the same saber, yours will do just fine." He laughed good-naturedly, then got down to business.
"All right, now, we'll start with the opening salute and moves. Makashi is a style of grace and elegance, while still retaining functionality. You should excel at this style. Now, the main difficulty here will be avoiding your face while coming somewhat close to it- I'd advise just keeping your saber a bit of a distance away, because it would be a shame to harm yours... All right. Moving on! Now, this is how you salute." The Equine Jedi Knight stood with his legs mostly together, and ignited his lightsaber while flicking it to the right. Veren brought it up to hold in front of his face for three seconds, then spun the blade counter-clockwise in a flourish, bringing it down to his right. The faun-like Jedi shifted his legs so that his right hoof was in front of the left, but he avoided going into a wide stance. Veren said, "Alright, that was the salute and opening stance. Try that, and we'll see if Makashi is good for you.
