Sokan is a combat method used in conjunction with lightsaber dueling.
Developed by the ancient Jedi Knights during the Great Hyperspace War, Sokan combines tactics that allow for evasion and mobility with the kinetic motions of Ataru in combat.
Sokan involves swift strokes of the lightsaber, which are aimed towards an opponent's vital areas, in addition to quick tumbles and movements. Combatants make use of large amounts of terrain, trying to maneuver their opponents into vulnerable areas during the course of battles that involve Sokan techniques.
