Is there any training resources for this style of lightsaber combat?

+1 vote for Caine and Nova.

Oh- and on a side note- a simple search would (in the future) be the easiest way to hunt down information for some of your questions. ;)

Dun Möch isn't really a form of saber combat, either.  It's more like taunting than actual saber combat.

Ohhhhh this is actually a real thing. I didn't know that. haha

Well- I suppose just making your enemy self concious is a good place to start. I've found that in REAL fights on the street- acting like you have a slightly deranged and self destructive attitude tends to psych people out.

If you act like you have nothing to lose- people don't want to fight you.

If you want to equate Dun Mok to real saber combat, you can think of "taunting" as a way of drawing an opponent in and making them drop their defense, or in other words "breaking timing" or "faking".

You won't find any real "dueling guides" online. Believe me...I have done a TON of research on what is out there, and there honestly isn't much that is truly tangible. It's mainly people reading the books, Jedi Path, etc. and studying the character's moves from the films and video games and then combining their "knowledge base" from that and from Wookiepedia and POOF! Instant expert!  :P

It's truly not a matter of delving into the moves or forms themselves that make it work, it is the real application to combat that can help bring them to life...something that I have been focused on for the past 4 years, and Novastar and I are constantly trying to expand it!
