Kupuna Aikido will present a lesson on safe falling techniques to help decrease the severity of injury from falls, aimed specifically at our community’s kupuna!

“Safe falling” is falling in a way that protects your head and prevents broken bones. Kupuna Aikido teaches safe falling classes across the island. Their mission is to empower kupuna with aikido-based principles to preserve and protect their mobile independence.
