Kahlil Practicing Soft Falls

Here’s a brief video of Kahlil practicing soft ukemi (soft falls, also known as feather falls). You’ll see two parts of the practice. First, Kahlil practices a stretch on the ground followed by a roll. Second, Kahlil practices that same roll off of his dad’s back while his dad is down on all fours. You’ll see that Kahlil has complete control of his body and that the fall from his dad’s back is extremely soft and controlled. Kahlil is well on his way to spectacular ukemi.
