and I'm damned proud of it. I've not had very good experiences with falling. It tends to hurt a lot. I tried doing falls from squatting position & it made me dizzy & hurt my tailbone tremendously. Today, at training, one of the exercises had the aggressor (we take turns being the good guy & the bad guy) taking a fall, and I just went with it. I felt multiple times -- probably about 20, and didn't hurt myself & wasn't too scared. Success! I was also able to practice a move that seriously injured my left pinkie much earlier this year. Once bitten, twice shy and all that. Just sucked it up & did it. It's nothing big ... but it's big for me!

You're talking to a seemingly, semi-professional klutz!
So knowing how to take a fall without breaking bones is a very good thing!
Well done, ma'am!
