The Weightless Ribbon provides a new, simple approach to learning how to fall and roll safely: by learning where you get support from the ground, you can learn to move to the ground, on it, over it, and away from it, in any direction that you want. Russ Mitchell has used this method to teach rolling and fall safety to students aged 8-80. While it's particularly useful for Judo and Jiu-jutsu players, anybody who would like to have a healthier back, more-refined balance, greater ease in movement, and most especially, the freedom which comes from no longer being afraid to fall, will find this book to be immensely useful.
