whatever motion it is, it becomes instict if practiced enough this is the first thing I learned at Aikido, because if when u are thrown you dont roll properly you can hurt yourself. Now its second nature. A little while ago I was walking along and fell over a root. I rolled and stood straight back up withought thinking. basically rolling when you oe your ballance, becomes like walking when you want to go foward, just a natural motion.

@mullahnasruddinQQ, as far as I can see, the Hapkido roll is not so different from this one, which is almost identical to Aikido forward roll. Note that Aikido and Hapkido are very similar in many aspects. The Hapkido guys jump higher, so the momentum automatically brings them up straight. In this vid, they didn't stand up in the end only because they didn't want to. The moves are essentially the same.

Yes, you are right my dear, this roll is identical to the aikido roll. Aikido originates in the ancient japanese martial arts, developed by the samurai who used to wear reativily heavy armor in battle. Probably in some aikido-styles which are alive and changing they have modified the way of rolling. Personally I prefer to roll over the outstretched leg for the reasons told above.

This is a very ancient way to roll, suitable for someone wearing an amour of some kind, probably taken from some japanese martial art. I suggest to learn a roll which enables you to end up in a standig position. Anyway that guy presenting in this vid has done a good bit of practice which you should do too before trying to roll out of any trouble.

u r a million times mor likely to get injured somehow from a fall or in daily routines than u are getting violently mugged on ur everyday street. if u learn balance & how to move properly, then u dont need to really worry about anything else- balance has its own applications in & of itself

mullahnasruddinQQ commented on 01 Dec 2009

@engineering07 Yes, unhandycapped people can stand up from that position including me. In my opinion it is swifter, more gentle to your knees and easier to roll over your outstretched leg as shown in the vids Hapkido Masters Demo - Jump Rolling and Basic Hapkido Front Roll. Enjoy... :-)

Muscle memory is the thing that my karate instructor stresses the most. like pralrvkeorur said, if you practice something enough it becomes second nature. If you train yourself to fall a certain way you will fall that way because your muscles will not wait for your brain to react.

if there is a wall than you may catch yourself upon it. if you are struck in the back of the head you probably shouldn't have pissed the guy off. there are infinite probabilities in any confrontation to sit here and speculate them is pointless get out and practice!

am telling ya man i am soo far behind in the computer world,well you taught me something new,so now i am laughing my ass off out loud lmaool ,cool,they should call this the oasis move,you gotta roll with it lol

evilstewie85 commented on 20 Jan 2011

@thefutureboom Well, if you do that on concrete you would probably hurt yourself, but you'd be able to stand up quickly.. instead if you don't use that technic the damage would be a lot more, that's for sure!

im getting fucked up of women who think that sitting in front of computer and watching fucktarted shows from expertvillage can teach them how to perform little, malformed pieces of martial arts... pathetic...

engineering07 commented on 30 Nov 2009

@mullahnasruddinQQ you mean you couldn't stand up from the finishing position shown in this vid? That's weird because I know most people can :-) BTW, what in your opinion is a "modern" way to roll?

crazychyanne commented on 22 Jun 2008

this isn't just for women. You know, men fall too. and this roll is not for people with little self defense. if a man falls, don't you want him to roll so he won't hurt himself either?!

Eric Lino commented on 29 Jun 2008

Well, i started learning aikido last month and this is the forward roll type im learning right now. the only difference is that you have to put one hand on the ground before rolling.

apf42589 commented on 26 Jun 2008

that roll is not in parkour we use more of just tucking our heads in and rolling diagonal on our backs ;) i hate this roll no offence it would hurt if you did that on cement lmao

You did very well, except that you haven't put your hand as a support to get up, which can become necessary if rolling without a boost before the roll. But in this case I dont think it is
