Breakfalling/ Ukemi Waza guides

Postby Molloy » Fri Aug 26, 2005 12:32 pm | #1

I just had a quick crawl round the web to find guides to breakfalling and thought I'd post a few URLs here so that if anyone searches the forum they'll have a few links to hand.  Feel free to add any of your own favourites.

http://www.self-defense-guide.com/taked ... owspt1.php

A military themed guide to rolls, back and side breakfalls with photographs.

http://www.gedanate.com/breakfall-safely.html

An Aikido based site with exercises that supposedly allow you to practice at home.  Annoying google ads allover the page but if you cut and paste the text that isnt advertising into a word processor it becomes a decent pamphlet.

http://www.ittendojo.org/articles/aerial.htm

Again, based on Aikido, a method for teaching aerial breakfalls.  Good pictures.  Scary looking!

http://www.jigorokano.it/Cartella%20Waza/Ukemi.html

Comic strip like photographs of various breakfalls.  Not very useful unless you know what the guy in the picture is actually doing, I think.

Written guide to breakfalls with lots of tips.  No pictures or figures.  Some of the tips are useful but should probably be used in conjunction with a more basic guide.
