Re: Fear of Ukemi

Great! Thanks, Mary, I was posting and didn't see your post until afterwards. This will mean so much to me to be able to roll again after so many years. I really appreciate the step by step approach with all the detail and description. I really did have a mental block, but also couldn't remember the exercise from so many years ago in judo class at Cornell. Also, yours gives a transition from the circular side to side and around and then to back roll....

I'm so excited I'm answering right away, but I know the details are in there, I just skimmed the post with a real Eureka! feeling ...

If you ever were a girl scout, this was a giant good deed you just did.
