the reason we want the kids to start so young, the old timers that is, is so that they spend most of their time falling. you get more fall training for things that will come up later. the kids get a sense of what's needed when they fall. and most of these falls are unplanned done in soft environments.
then, the coach can then practice planned falls with the kids. like over rotating a front on floor and learning how to pull the arms in, turn and fall. we can actually teach them this in real time for that time when it is unplanned and they know just what to do. not stick one or both arms out to the floor and break one or both arms. i could go on and on but i think you'll all grasp this concept. the more falls they take early on the less risk for injury later. 'cat sense' must be trained in to the human,
