The New Essential Guide to Characters has this to say on Poof:
Trigger Spontaneous fires by exciting the molecules in combustible objects
Can contort his body in strange ways because of no spinal cord
Battle meditation
He also is a master illusionist and was a Veteran of the Stark Hyperspace War.

It doesn't say anything about his saber skills. That's great that he could be a master limboer or be Smokey the Bear's worst nightmare, but can he swing that glow stick around?
yeah, he used terasi kasi, it blends with lightsaber combat making your lightsaber skills stronger. It also lets you take advantage of your phyiscal strength and provides an advantage in a fight by surprising your opponent with a kick to the head
oh and again, what he used is made up in the SW universe, there is never any mention of judo, tae kwon do, etc. The only martial art that we know of for sure in the SW universe is the terasii kasi, and we don't know who mastered it enough to be effective in a fight

The Medstar first book features an individual who practices many fighting styles. That is mentioned, as is "echani" and a few others. I'll double check it later tonight.
We don't really know how strong Yarael Poof is but we know he's a Jedi Master and a Council Member so he must be pretty strong. I'd assume he'd beat Asajj Ventress from Clone Wars Volume 1, seeing as she lostr to Padawan Anakin, but by the time of Obsession she has beat Kit Fisto, one of the strongest jedi in the order so by that time I'm fairly sure she'd beat Yarael. But like I said, we really don't know how strong he is.
I wouldn't place that much faith in the council membersr, remember that Coleman *jump, grin get shot* Trebor was a council member as well. The council members are chosen for wisdom, not for lightsaber ability. And seeing that we know next to nothing of Yarael's ability with a blade, he looses. Asajj was strong enough in the force that it would come down to a contest of blades, and she was a challenge for Anakin, meaning that she would beat most others. The only council members of note in a duel are Yoda, Mace, Obi-Wan and Anakin. Though Kit also wasn't bad.
