Chair Building in Jedi Training

Maya, Samuel (mostly hidden), Averi and Will (in the back), and Laila

                          awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Averi, Will, and Shoshana

Margo, our Jedi trainer, at the beginning of each training, has us line up at the door, take a deep breath, and walk in silently.  Then, once we're in, we do a self-check.  Then she explains what we're going to do.  On the back wall, there was wood:  lots and lots of 2 x 4s and 1 x 4s, and we were to build chairs.  Take as many as we want to built a chair that would suit us, as shown above.

Samuel and Sunni

Then, after we built the chairs, we'd get up and try out everybody else's chairs.  And then after that, we tore the chairs down and built new ones out of just four wooden planks.  Yay!

In Jedi training, we're developing our senses, and not just our senses but to tap into the energy around us.
