Will you be okay in an accident? Talking about ukemi as the most important thing for a martial artist. Paul: Everyone, welcome back to Paul’s channel. Tsukada-san, today we have a different atmosphere. We are at an amazing dojo - the Shunbukan Dojo in Noda-shi. Today we will be talking about how to practice ukemi. Of course, if you can’t do ukemi, it’s impossible to do the techniques of ninpo. Paul: Today we won’t get hurt because there are tatami covering the floor. Tsukada: Because it’s the basics of the basics. Because I do aikido, I do ukemi all the time but Paul always talks about ninja-style ukemi and, since I don’t have much experience with this, I wanted to learn a little. Paul: I don’t know if it’s ninja-style ukemi but more like the human-style ukemi. It’s natural. I think it’s in our DNA. Tsukada: Like an instinctual defensive reaction. Paul: It won’t happen if you don’t practice so I thought we should do that kind of practice. Let’s go! Section: The basics of front ukemi So, the most basic is the front ukemi. Although you are very good at it, it’s a little bit different. You should make your body small. In the case of sports, you do it like this. But as I said before, if you do it like this on a hardwood floor, concrete or outside you will definitely hurt yourself. So, you lower your body close to the ground. If you do this and make your body small. Like a…what is that? Tsukada: Like an armadillo? Paul: Yes, like an armadillo. Do it like this. Yes, but more tight. If you do it like this and come up onto your feet. Tsukada: Immediately stand up. Paul: That’s right. The second thing is that most people do it like this (with the arm reaching out) but in real-life I do it like this. This way (moving arms separately). Yes, it feels like you’re using the shoulder. This way, if you’re riding a bike and you go flying, you do it like this and you won’t have any problems. Tsukada: Do I turn my arm like this? Paul: Not really like that. The shoulder is close to the ground. You can use this hand if you jump. This hand is a support. Don’t jump! First start from here, like a worm. Small, small, small! That’s where it starts. Make yourself small, tight, like a ball. Pull your legs in. Don’t swing your legs. That’s good but you have to practice this. If you don’t, you’ll hit your feet on the ground. If you hit your ankle on concrete, you’ll really get hurt. That’s why you have to really make yourself small and pull your feet in. This is the basic of front ukemi. Paul: If someone pushes you from behind. Go like this and then take kamae. Take a small kamae. To practice this front ukemi you can start with your feet here to understand the distance. Ah, just about made it! From here, make yourself small. Can you do it? Ah, you’re behind the line! Don’t be sneaky! Start with your heels on the line. Ok. Make yourself small! Start with the heel on the line and then go to here. Okay! That’s it! If you practice like this you’ll be good. You roll right in this space. You’re head goes where your feet are. You have to really make yourself small to do this. If you can do this then you can, for example, if you’re opponent is standing here. I do it from here and then go forward like this. This is a good thing to practice. From here, I can move forward quickly. Practicing to take the distance is important. So, for example, from this distance, you can do like that. You do it all at once. You can also use your feet. You can jump and kick with the feet like this. There are a lot of things you can do. From here, you can go like this. Sorry! If it doesn’t hurt I don’t know if it works. LOL. So, Tsukada-san, this time jump to this area. Come up right here. Tsukada: Ah, control the distance, right? That’s a long way! Paul: It’s far! You flew! This will cause him to self-destruct! You have to break this habit! Do it and stand up right in front of me. Pull your feet in and stand right up. Tsukda: This is difficult! It’s more difficult than being close! Paul: LOL. They’re both difficult. See if you can do it from here. Okay, but do it one more time. Oh! Nice! Tsukada: You really have to leap. You have to jump in! Paul: Yes. You have to get rid of those bad habits. Otherwise, you’ll get yourself killed. Tsukada: Yes. I did hit my shoulder. Paul: Everyone, practice these ukemi to keep yourself safe. Ukemi is the basic of the basics so by all means, practice these things.
待ってました！私のリクエストにお応えいただきまして、ありがとうございました。
たいへん参考になりました。前方回転受身を小さくしたり、離れた距離を一気に詰めたりの間合いのとり方が素晴らしいです。
なるほどでした。肩甲骨から床にアプローチしていくときに、後方回転受身のように腕全体をひねりながら接地していくのですね。ありがとうございました。
昔、長野市の戸隠神社で武神館の皆さんが演武をされたときに、生徒さんたちが皆さん、小さな子どもたちまで玉砂利の上でキレイに受け身をとっていらしたそうです。戸隠神社でお土産物屋さんを営んでおられる初見先生のお弟子さんが、玉砂利の上を羽布団だと思えばできるとおっしゃったとか。
自転車やオートバイでジャックナイフ状態になったり、雪や氷の上で転んでも大丈夫ですね。まさか、ポール先生がホントにそんなご経験があったとは・・・貴重なお話をありがとうございました。
古い書物などでは受身は身を守るものではなく、攻撃にうつるためのものといわれてますもんね
柔道以降に受身は身を守る、保護する意味合いが強くなったとききます
ブラジリアン柔術などもそうですが、受身は身を守るだけではなく、攻撃にうつるための手段だとつくづく感じました
ポール先生、恐ろしいです。受け身も攻撃になるとは。未熟者の私などは
受け身は相手の攻撃をかわすというかダメージを減らす物と。
黒田鉄山先生のその場受け身と相通じるものを感じました。
私は柔道の受身で右手が前になる癖がついちゃってます。が、この動画で左手を後ろに伸ばす受身があることを知りました。型は無いと分かっていますが…わたしには新鮮でした。ありがとうございます。チャンネル登録させていただきました。
ちょっと暑かったかも知れませんが春風館道場は、受け身の稽古としては、とても良い選択と思います。どんどん使って下さい。☺️✨
小学校の体育は、こういうのやるべきなんだよな。

Section: The basics of front ukemi
So, the most basic is the front ukemi. Although you are very good at it, it’s a little bit different. You should make your body small. In the case of sports, you do it like this. But as I said before, if you do it like this on a hardwood floor, concrete or outside you will definitely hurt yourself. So, you lower your body close to the ground. If you do this and make your body small. Like a…what is that?

Yes, it feels like you’re using the shoulder. This way, if you’re riding a bike and you go flying, you do it like this and you won’t have any problems.

Amazing how adaptable such simple ukemi is. Gave me some new ideas, thank you!
面白いよね受身の色々。
私は小学二年生の時柔道を一ヶ月やったのが始まり。
五年の時自転車でバイクと衝突して五メートル位飛ばされたが受身を取って無傷。
二十歳の時トラックの荷台から後ろ向きに落ちて無傷。
これはただ受け身だけの稽古をするだけでは身につきません、二年生の時、先生に投げられたあの感覚、天地がひっくり返る中で覚えた体験。
小さなうちに体験しておけば本能が働くようになります。
他流だけど若いころ、3か月に1回くらいは路上で受け身の稽古やったなぁ。
柔道出身の人たちは、アスファルトでやると皆ヒィヒィ言ってた（癖でアスファルトに思いっきり足や手を叩きつけるんだ）
あと、頭を横に逃がさない癖の人は膝付いた状態からでリタイアしてた（頭頂部が削れるので）
他にも、遠くに飛ぶ上に障害物を飛び越える受け身では、女性が極まれだけど鎖骨折ってた。肩甲骨で流さずに肩で衝撃受けるタイプは折れる。
歳行ったけど、今でも隠れて路上で受け身はやってる。ちょっとさぼると、痛くてできなくなるから。
アスファルトで受け身！？
荒業ですね、、
@@Kitaoka-sadoru さん
アスファルトは凸凹が痛いです。僕たちの中でも上級者向けで、最後にそっちで受け身してキャッキャしてました。さすがに地面やコンクリートがいつもの方です。回数も受け身の精度確認程度で、何十回もしません。なんかすげえ受け身達人みたいに思われてそうなので、弁明しました(汗)
Awesome!! great examples of ukemi for the right situation!! Thank you!!
Great video Paul! I didn’t know that short-distance one!
likeボタンぷツンとおしました！😁
hello my friends! good job )
かっこいい
受け身が本質的に理解できるまでやり込めばどういう形でも使い分け出来るんだろう、と思いました
I want to roll in there!
❤
残念のことが , 私達の家の地面は硬いよ
飲み物持ってるとこの受け身だめだと思う。私は鉄骨につまずいてコンクリートの上で柔道の前受身のおかげで一滴もこぼしませんでした。合気道って前受身やらないんですよね。
