How to Perform the Diving Roll by Sensei Rick Tew at NinjaGym

1. The same principles of a forward roll will be applied for the roll itself.

2. Start off by having something in front of you, either a partner laying down or a bokken at waist height, so you get the feeling of falling over something in front of you.

3. Simply fall forward and once your hands soften the impact slightly, your legs should have already come off the ground.

4. Once the hands hit the ground you should have the natural reaction of that forward roll and just go into it after the hands touch. Curl up, tuck the head, tuck in the feet and come up with hands at head level.

Make sure that when you are practicing any rolls or falls, that you have nice soft Martial Art mats or grass to reduce your chance of injury.
