140 - Falling, breathing and, hopefully, standing...
Movement quality and breathwork for better training.
This week we'd looked at ways we can end up on the floor during a physical confrontation - there are several.
We'd specifically practiced safer ways we can land if falling backwards, how to orient towards a single attacker (this may not always be the case) and how and why we attempt to get back to standing as soon as possible, again in the safest manner.
See posts 2 and 3 for more info and ideas about the standing drills (Supporters only post) we used.
It’s common to experience some problems with these drills when starting out - here’s an often encountered one and ways you can solve it.
