Ukemi is %50 of the training.

Your failure to be good at Ukemi becomes a hindrance to the development of your training partner and your own understanding of Budô. You have a role and therefore a responsibility to become good at Ukemi. To become good at Ukemi, you must have the right spirit. A spirit of presence and conviction. Without this spirit, you will be hesitant,fearful and stiffen in your body, hence creating a greater chance of injury to yourself and your training partner.
Developing the correct heart for receiving demonstrates an inner acceptance of the present. It will make you a better,safer and more enjoyable training partner, increasing your overall depth of understanding in the martial arts.

“Your Ukemi is improving. You’re starting to understand the martial arts now.”
( Takamatsu Sensei to Hatsumi Sensei )
