My sensei is around his early 40's he is about 5'7" and has a beer belly ish, salt and pepper hair, however i have never seen someone ukemi so silently its asif he doesnt even touch the floor, to look at him in every day you would assume he is the regular working guy in his early 40's but get him on the mat and he'll throw you 20 ft before you've even begun to think about why his hand isnt where it was a second ago.

Much respect to my sensei.
