In this episode Professor Robin Gieseler teaches his son Zyan, age 5,
how to break fall. The ability to break fall is one of the most
beneficial skills in jiu-jitsu. Most kids will not have to use their
jiu-jitsu to defend themselves physically but they will definitely fall
at some point in their lives. Learning how to break fall can greatly
reduce the risk of injury.
