Background and Study Aim. Many martial artists and some scholars point out that acquiring martial arts and combat sports falling techniques can prevent injuries in daily life. They have articulated that historical experience and tradition in falling led to the advancement of safe falls. However, safe falls are an inseparable part of many non-combative sports like games or gymnastics. Movement patterns for falling techniques differ from one sport to another, while they are still safe and serving the purpose. Material and Methods. Athletes fall quite often in lot of sports, but research in this area is scarce. In some sports, falling techniques is a part of basic curriculum. Can we presume, that knowledge of falling can be easily transferred from sports to everyday life? Is there any diagnostic tool for that? Results. In this theoretical essay we will clarify terms fall and falling technique as two different movements. Next we will go through the current research about falling in sports. We will find out what the danger of falling is and what benefit we can gain from falling techniques in sports. At the end of the article a look to possible transfer of falling techniques to general physical activities from children to elderly will be given. The scope is to give suggestion for basic principles for General Falling Techniques (GFT). Conclusion. In general, falls and falling techniques can be recognised in sports as well as in everyday working or leisure time. Respect the nature of respective sport, falling techniques differ. This is way it is not possible to use them as general skill to avoid injury.
