Star Wars Martial Arts School Opens

The Jedi Temple, a Star Wars-themed martial arts academy, has just opened in Quilpué, Chile. Students learn Jedi values along with yoga and taekwondo:

In the classes, the children are given a chance to breathe life into a Star Wars' fandom (sometimes inherited from obsessed parents), by wielding light sabers made popular by Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader, Vanguardia.com reported.

A genuine Star Wars experience is provided by "an exact replica light-saber, that has the sounds and the light reminiscent of the movies," William Berrueta, the creator of the school, told BBC Mundo.
