Aayla Secura was a calm and patient Jedi who would go wherever she was needed. She was also very skilled with her bright blue lightsaber. She mastered a form of lightsaber combat known as Form IV. This form of lightsaber combat was best suited for use in bigger spaces, because it focus’ primarily on acrobatics. But it also includes the ability to use the blade of one’s lightsaber to deflect incoming fire.
