Theme of the Week: Tumbling

Falling and rolling are probably the most directly applicable skills you will learn in martial arts. You will fall, trip and tumble hundreds of times in your lift outside the training floor. If you have clocked some time on the training floor drilling your falls and rolls, you will be less likely to incur an injury when you wipe out. In fact, you may even be less likely to fall if you practice your tumbling.

So this week, we will spend more time than usual investigating the tumbling requirements for both kids and adult classes.

Not surprisingly, we will also work throws and grappling a little bit more than usual too – because they both dovetail nicely into tumbling.
