What if the goal wasn’t just preventing falls… but learning how to better protect yourself when one happens?
Join us for a unique and interactive Fall Protection 101 experience combining education, movement, balance, awareness, and practical protection skills inspired by the principles of ukemi — the art of safe falling.
This event includes:
• 30-minute discussion and presentation
Learn why falls happen, what actually causes injuries during falls, and simple strategies that can help improve confidence, awareness, and protection.
• 60-minute guided movement experience
Gentle hands-on practice focused on balance, body awareness, safer movement patterns, protective positions, and beginner-level fall protection skills. No martial arts experience needed.
This is NOT a fitness bootcamp or intense workout. Everything is taught progressively, safely, and at your comfort level.
✅ Guests are welcome
✅ Open to non-residents at no cost
✅ All experience and mobility levels welcome
✅ Chairs and modifications available
✅ Comfortable clothing recommended
At Ukemi Health, we believe:
“The problem is not the fall. The problem is the sudden stop.”
Our mission is to help people build confidence, resilience, and practical protection skills through gentle practice and movement education.
Come learn, move, laugh, and experience something different.
Gentle practice. Lasting protection.
