  • before i end up saying something stupid about this rather funny looking technique, can anyone explain to me the purpouse of it?

  • @elmucaro177

    Its Ukemi. Ukemi is receiving techniques/ falling. There are techniques in Aikido where this type of falling style is needed to prevent harm to the person receiving the technique, although, for the most part, it just looks really cool

  • @InDGalozo nice,seems to be a very swift way of breaking a fall, but have you tried it outside the dojo , like not in tatami?

  • ich behersche Ukemi auch sehr gut aber sooo g übertrieben gut nicht wirklich

  • echt krank man hört gbarnicht´s also Respeckt

  • the first Aikido technique is ukemi ; )

  • it almost looks like a special kick-attack. cool.

  • I don't know much about aikido ukemi, but I like it because its silent.

  • o.o I've never seen this breakfall before. Looks like something I need to go learn :p Thanks. Amazing skill, by the way.

  • search "comkaijudo"

    for more aikido vid.

  • Unbelievably smooth. Great work. I train with John Messores Sensei down in clearwater, and my ukemi is good because of it, but your ukemi is amazing.

  • that ukemi is for when your running from the popo and he grabs your hoodie...just kidding nice ukemi!

  • Nice, that is hilarious. Thanks for watching

  • @Shodan9168 Omg, no sound 

  • I wander how long this guy has been Deshi...

    Is he a Deshi to Donovan Waite?

  • @Nebel255

    No, he is certainly not a deshi of Waite sensei, however he is copying his ukemi style. I'm an actual deshi of Waite sensei though.

  • Nice moves man!

    Pd:and Nice place!

  • Ushiro Otoshi. Very nice

  • amazing falling abilities in all of these videos from this martial artist.

    I train in a very mixed style of "Taekwondo" and we do alot of Hapkido style falling practice, but i have never seen a fall like this.

    is the person in the video and the poster the same person? how long has the person in the video trained in aikido?

  • Thank you, yeah this guy in the poster and the guy falling in the videos are the same. He has been practicing aikido for 7 years now

  • The perso is Donovan Waite (sp?), now 6th Dan Aikikai New York (Student of Yamada Sensei). AFAIK he started practicing Aikido in 1969 ... but well, when I met him he looked to be my age (born 1966), so probably that is wrong. As he is 6th dan I estimate he is practicing Aikido about 35 - 30 years now .

  • Thank you

  • um..actually..that is a really nice dojo..very good ukemi aswell

  • Nice dojo !
