    If you’re afraid of falling, wear protectors and just deliberately fall a couple of times to test the level of protection and practice falling to build confidence.
    I’m bad at sports and use skating to exercise, so I suck and regularly fall ~3 times per hour, but it’s not a big deal at all and rarely hurts. And over time you really learn how to fall in a more controlled fashion, which is a useful skill to have by itself - it’s prevented me from getting injured when I tripped and fell on a hike.
