FALL BETTER.
FEAR LESS.
The Falling Class
Do you know how to fall without getting severely injured? The Falling Class can teach you how!
The Falling Class is a skill-based training program that teaches active adults over 55 how to fall safely. Using progressive, science-based techniques adapted from judo and stunt training, the program demystifies the mechanics of falling through low-impact, game-based activities.
For over 30 years, Atlanta Judo Midtown has taught hundreds of students how to play judo and fall safely. The Falling Class combines proven safe-falling techniques with strength and balance training, all rooted in the core principles of judo.

“When I fell, I was aware of falling and the next thing I know, I’m on the ground- my arms were crossed on my chest, my head was tucked in... It happened so fast. I attribute it to the (Falling Class) training we have been going to for the previous 3 weeks. I was impressed and a little shocked... I said damn, nothing is hurting!” -Cliff Bottin, 82
