CM Catalog

The CM Catalog is the flat index of every Choreography Movement in the Saber Standard — what each one is, which fight it interprets, and who notated it.

The Core, Extended, and Community libraries are the teaching path: they tell you what to learn and in what order. This page is the lookup table. Use it when you know roughly what you are after — a CM letter, a film, a character, a contributor — and want to find it quickly.

Entire battles can be notated by any school and shared. From those fights, specific movements are selected and added to the Saber Standard libraries. See Community Library for how to contribute one.

Wide tables

Both tables below are wide. On a phone, turn the device landscape; either table can also be scrolled sideways.

Names and trademarks

The film, series, character, and performer names in these tables are descriptive references only. They identify which filmed sequence a given choreography interprets. Nothing here claims ownership of, affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement by the rights holders of those works, and all such names and marks remain the property of their respective owners.

What is catalogued here is the notation for each movement — an interpretation worked out, performed, and written down by Saberists. That notation is what the Licensing terms cover.
