Re: Fall training
Have your Sensei or a Sempai watch your form.
It sounds like you may be landing flat on your hip first, then the rest of you body.
Exhale and relax into it from a roll letting the body unfold. Or, exhale and relax into letting the body hit simultaneously, at the same time. Or, exhale and relax into it letting the arm slap and feet hit first, holding a slight arch so the hip barely (or not at all) touch the mat.
Takes practice. Your injuries only suggest you are both a beginner and have not learned correct form yet. Its on the learning curve.
Exhale, relax, practice, and enjoy yourself.
