! DVD:UKEMI Starting from the Ground Up This DVD provides a step-by-step procedure for learning and/or teaching safe aikido ukemi.
Whether completely new to the art or looking to hone existing skills, the methods presented here will enable any reasonably fit practitioner to safely take falls in aikido (and other similar arms-length grappling systems).
The methods presented here are not simply intended to aid in learning how to collude with the person executing the technique; rather, they enable one to be prepared and able to gracefully manage both the malevolent and inept as well as skilled practitioner executing ordinary technique.
Ellis Amdur’s elegant, no-nonsense approach to ukemi training has greatly benefited my aikido classes at NJIT’s Phys Ed Department.
I’ve discovered that new students taught using this method can safely execute both basic and advanced ukemi, including breakfalls, in one or two classes, rather than weeks, months, or years.
The following topics are covered: * Prelude * Front falls * Ukemi & counters * Front falls – troubleshooting * Ikkyo * Standing back falls * Proactive ukemi * High ukemi * Feet/body positioning * Rolling over another * The problem with hanmi * Safe ukemi * Hanmi vs. shizentai * Changing direction * Ukemi options * Ukemi from shih

The final word on Ukemi: From the Ground Up is an absolute “must-have” for instructors and students of throwing techniques… It will cause you to reconsider why you teach and do things the way you do, and you may even be able to adapt some of the methods in this video to your own curriculum.
I know it has in my case, and it has provided me with some ideas for improving how I teach ukemi in my dojo.
