If you practice Judo, or have been on the receiving end of a properly executed throw, you’d understand the damage one can suffer from such a throw. Learn the techniques that can save you from injuries!

Proper techniques can help one minimize injuries from a fall, or in the case of sparring (or in other physical confrontations) being thrown to the ground. Practitioners of arts such as Judo, Aikdo, and Hapkido often rely on breakfall techniques to land safely by breaking the impact from a fall or a throw.

This video program contains the exact curriculum taught in Master Hye Kyoung Kim’s class to help students develop the proper reactions to falls and throws. The video instruction in this program is extensively comprehensive. It not only shows the techniques, but also includes practice exercises to help one to condition and prepare for the necessary movements involved. You will learn:

Great App!
This is a great app, not only does it teach you proper techniques for falling when in combat to minimize injury, but these are useful techniques to know in case of accidents that cause you to fall any time during the course of a day.
Great Training app!!
I am impressed with this app. The video quality is great as well as is the teaching. It shows a different way of doing Break falls, which I think every martial artist needs. Its even a good training tool for the non-martial artist. A great investment for anyone. I am recommending it to all my students!
