- Aikido Ukemi: Ushiro Otoshi
Donovan Waite Sensei started practicing Aikido in 1969, at a very young age. As a 14 year old, he received his 1st Degree Black Belt from Ralph Reynolds Sensei who was under the direction of T.K. Chiba Sensei in Birmingham, England. Since then Waite Sensei has spent the last 37 years persuing a deeper understanding of Aikido. Along that path, Waite Sensei has had the opportunity to train under many of Aikido's foremost instructors. In 1984 he apprenticed himself to Yoshimitsu Yamada Sensei, chairman of the United States Aikido Federation and chief instructor of the New York Aikikai. For over ten years he was Uchi Deshi, or live-in student, under Yamada Sensei and he still holds a weekly teaching position at the New York Aikikai. Since 1997 Donovan Waite Sensei has been the chief instructor of Aikido of Center City.
He currently holds the rank of 7th Dan and is a certified Shihan, or Master Instructor, with both the United States Aikido Federation and the Aikido World Headquearters in Tokyo, Japan. Waite Sensei is one of the few, and one of the youngest, Westerners to reach this milestone. He also serves on the USAF Technical Committee. In addition to his duties with the USAF and Aikido of Center City, Waite Sensei extensively travels the world teaching Aikido. He has conducted Aikido seminars in various cities of North, Central, & South America, Europe, Russia, the Middle East, & South East Asia. Waite Sensei is a full-time, professional martial artist who has dedicated his life to the practice and teaching of Aikido.

Rest In Peace Sensei. Other than being one of the greatest martial artists and aikidoka, you were a human inspiration to many of us! We will surely miss you and hold you in our thoughts and practice. Deepest condolences to the family, friends, and Sensei's students, as well as to Yamada Sensei.
I am very saddened by this. Condolences to all family, friends and students. RIP Sensei 🙏
That is a spectacularly beautiful demonstration.
great Ukemi .
Beautiful Dojo !
I thought my ukemi was pretty good until I saw this video!
Waite Sensei makes me look like a sack of potatoes! lol!
Very good. Please provide more.
What a great teacher...wildly impressed !
Very good!
I think if you can understand these steps, you can make the same, but it's like Donovan Sensei said... you need begin slow and next, it pratice step-by-step to achieve a good control on the ukemi.
this would be great for dodgeball XD lol imma try it
Super sick! I've been wondering how to do this without doing a big baseball slide that ends in a back flop. Practice begins tonight!
thankyou very much. been looking for the detail instruction on how to do it safely. now i know how to do it and will practice. :-)
Nice ushiro otoshi! 5 stars! =D
This is a great tutorial on a really unusual ukemi. Domo arigato gozaimashita, sensei!
It's unbelievable how analytical he is and how much attention to detail he is giving. That makes me wonder why 6 people don't like it...
Thank you very much for this detailed explanation! It helps a lot!
Sometimes it remember me a little bit on movements in Capoeira :)

Excellent demo video, both from technical and narration perspectives. This is the first video of yours I've watched, and based on this one, I look forward to viewing others you've produced.
Donovan Waite Sensei is great!
Very thanks....to the sensei D. Waite...
Beautyful video
he is always great
Very good...thanks a lot..!!!
Yeah Donovan is amazing at ukemi.So swift, fast, quiet and on the point. Now i want even more ukemi training !!
Very helpful indeed! Doomo arigatoo gozaimasu.
great quality of video and nice tutorial and your dojo is big and beautiful.. is this your dojo? thanks for sharing 5 stars
Awesome, this is the first I've seen this fall broken down like this. Often I've seen the big break falls but never really understood the mechanics of it. Great video!
@The0Keyboard0Kid
I think it's one of those indigo dye ones. Very cool looking but they do show wear.
Still, no matter this guy is great and those are some VERY useful falls.
Waite-sensei opens the door to an entirely new level of practice - he makes ukemi practically an art in itself
thankyou verymuch.. i really apreciate it. been looking a detail instruction on how to do it safely. now i can try and practice it. :-)
Amazing. I have both volumes of this Ukemi video. I love it.
My sensei is doing this very well. I really can't grasp the movement of the body. I am very stretched and nimble but very heavy and tall, it's still hard to do it. Thanks to this instructional video I am getting better at it.
Absolutely awesome!
Everything I saw in this video earned my respect for Waite Sensei.
Thank you for teaching and for sharing!
*definite subscription + favorite*
Arigatou gozaimasu!
Excellent video!5/5
The art of smooth. Practice, practice, practice and legacy ❤
Thank you so much
Waite Shihan said that depends on your supple abilities, and I would argue that taking practice in forms one and form two in particular would add or enhance supple abilities to your Aikido...and related Budo etc
I know how difficult this can be. True master
Excelente
Awesome techniques for the Aikido student at various levels of training.
Really nice. He's simplified the form and shows a very nice sequence on a very important part in any aikido study.
Beautiful progression. For me doing this the hardest part is the fear of attempting a back bridge, especially having various issues with flexibility so the variations that build up to the more advanced version are extremely helpful.
Really good. Practical and easy to grasp.
His hakama looks worn out, not dirty.
awesome very helpfull indeed, thank you!
nice video for falling practice!...
I like it.
Really good! I practise in a dojo where this type of ukemi is called "suberi ukemi" (my teacher is a student of Suganuma Sensei). Very difficult ukemi to do the advanced version at speed. I like how Waite Sensei broke it down. I tend to do the "easiest" version:-)!
This is the coolest rastaman ever!
domo arigatou goaimashita sensei
Thank you Mr Donovan.
Great! I was just trying this Ukemi few days back, but it's a little difficult. I'll try from the "easy" first!
Thank you for the video! Congratulations!
HE'S AMAZING !
Amazing

ништяяк
I'll have to practice this.
Great video. Very clear. Thanks!
Thanks for the video.
Whydo you
why isn't this "colored" man teaching capoeira?? :P
Sort your Hakama out. Don't you dare come on the mat looking scruffy.
