Ukemi
Ukemi is a martial arts term referring to the art of falling safely. Here's a brief overview of how to implement it:
Relax: Stay loose and flexible to absorb the impact of the fall.
Roll: As you fall, tuck your chin to your chest and roll diagonally across your back, distributing the force of the impact.
Use Arms: Extend one arm out in the direction of your roll to help guide and cushion your fall.
Practice: Start with simple falls from a kneeling position and gradually progress to more complex falls from standing positions under the guidance of a qualified instructor.
Safety: Always practice ukemi on a soft surface like a mat to reduce the risk of injury.
