Thread: Is learning of different types of skills possible in LD's

Yes! You just struck the gold, of "awaken dreaming" I'd say..


Damn! I wish I got that that early. :p

(I asumme you are around 17 years.)

Anyways. I learned to skate in a ramp, in dreams. (This year.)
And I have no second doubt about it in this reality, no more! I feel like pro!


I also heard of people learning to play instruments.

Oh, and child prodigy's? What if they knew how to do it so well, cause they also train in their sleep?


I KNOW this is a fact.

I would not dare to skate in a ramp.. But, after a few days in that dremscape, I skate like I been skating for years! (Life altering experience.)

(I knew I was dreaming, when I learned it in my dream, so I was not afraid of injury, ... as, if it got to bad, I could just go to sleep there. So I learned really fast what to do, and what not to do.) I could recall it upon wakeup... And wow!

..the possibilities are endless!


I love loving life!

If words could express how sanly good I feel right now, then this would be it!

I haven't experienced it, but I also think you can learn things in a LD.

Skilld like skiing and skating are definately possible to improve but idk about the whole musical instrument thing. Everytime I play guitar in my dream I am amazing but when I wake up I'm not any better. I would guess this is because a skill like skating involves motion and the whole body so you are training and it is just like it would be in real life. Playing the guitar is alot of finger independence and strength and not about trying things that are dangerous that you might be hesitant to do in real life. Also things such as skating you will know what the outcome will be but if you are playing guitar it seems like it would most likely not sound accurate to what you are playing (obviously alot of the basic stuff that is easily ear trained will have a better chance to, but large intervals that you do not know well irl might be wrong).

With all that said, if it was a very stable, vivid ld then possibly it could help you, plus its alot of fun to shred in dreams so why not do it. One way I think it could help is with a tough lick or phrase or solo, where you have practiced it alot and know exactly how it sounds. It could possibly make the distinctions in your mind exactly how to do it by making it more subconscious, which is the root of all musical abilities, you want to be able to do it without thinking about it.

wow, this is really inspiring! I wanna try it already!

But I wonder if you feel the same gravity? I mean if it really feels like real life or when you skate in dreams you can do like huge gunts and 9000º flips? Couse that'd be cool but you woulnt be able to really practice...

It was exactly like it is here..

No doubt about it..

That is why it changed my life.. Why I did..

Thats pretty cool. Im a very dedicated weight lifter and have noticed lately that my muscle gains have caused me to no longer be able to run with good form. I assume my body just isnt used to the weight. When i actually try to work on my form in real life i feel retarded, maybe i could try doing this in a dream?

Capoeira is cool. I just started. Except for capoeira i make karate and ju-jutsu. But capoeira is different cup of tea.

One of my lucid tasks is to create my own gym in my own town. But first. I will have to have longer lucids. . Work in progress..
