Re: Breathing.... How Important is it for you?

IMHO, breathing is critical. I run out of breath if I hold it and separated ribs when I took ukemi. We aren't corrected much about it. At first I tended to hold my breath due to stress and anxiety. Then I tried to breathe in with the blend and out with the throw. Now I tend to just breathe naturally that way.
