I thought I had seen something about this recently but my search didn't turn anything up. Apologies if I missed it...
I bought my little grandson, who is a huge Star Wars fan, a WDW planning book for kids and he read all about the Jedi Training Academy. He and his 4 year old sister are really interested in doing this, but from what I am finding online it appears to not have come back since covid. Does anyone know if it has returned? And if so, any tricks to getting the kids signed up?

So, I don't like kids, and I don't like Star Wars...but I always got a kick out of being in "Backlot Express" when this show came on, I would always watch through the windows and I found it pretty cool.

I’m actually hoping that the new VP for Live Entertainment, David Duffy, might bring this back.
DLP have a Marvel version where you get an individual lesson with one of the characters, and it seems like Jedi Training is a no-brainer for Galaxy’s Edge or it’s old location. I don’t accept the argument that it “didn’t fit the timeline” of GE. It could be secret training or just have it by Star Tours like before.

There is a group of laid off cast members that was created around the time of Covid - Ear For Each Other. There is someone in that group that does Jedi training - he comes to you. My grandsons are too little, but he gets rave reviews. I think his name is Jason  It might be worth checking out. |

I searched for him as 'Justin Aldridge Jedi Training' in the Ear for Each Other facebook group. It brought up a short bio and lots of reviews. |

It brought up a short bio and lots of reviews. Hi Sherri! I submitted a request to join this group over a year ago and while I was not rejected, I was not accepted either. I assumed maybe the group went away or the moderators did? Do you know, is it still active and is Justin still doing this? Thank you for any information you might have! |

Do you know, is it still active and is Justin still doing this? Thank you for any information you might have! I know the group is still active. May be worth trying again to join. In the meantime, I found a review for Justin 1 day ago, so it appears he is still doing this. I found his regular facebook page which was linked in that review (and includes some info about his business), so you may want to message him through that. I'm not affiliated in any way, so I can't promise but might be worth a try. www.facebook.com/groups/351974729513513/user/41803577/If you end up booking, you'll have to let me know how it is. I'm interested in this for my grandkids when they're just a little older. |
