Here's the Jedi Training Academy during Star Wars Weekends at Disney's Hollywood Studios at the Walt Disney World resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.
The Jedi Training Academy is for kid between the ages of 4 and 12. Sixteen or more children are chosen from the audience as Jedi Younglings to participate in a training session by the Jedi Master. They are provided training lightsabers and Jedi robes. As the master completes the instruction of a simple combination of lightsaber attacks to the children, Darth Vader, Darth Maul and a pair of stormtroopers appear. Each Jedi trainee faces off in turn with either Maul or Vader until the villains retreat back to the stage, outnumbered. The children, now Padawans, are congratulated on their mastering of the Force by Yoda, then return the training lightsabers and robe, and are given a diploma for their participation.
Today was the opening day for Star Wars Weekends at Disney's Hollywood Studios at the Walt Disney World resort.
