Is that the same as ai-kakari-geiko?..if so, we do it from time to time. Hard, but good for a multitude of things.

We also practise that type of kakari-geiko sometimes. The length of time that you practise however is very short. Under two minutes usually. It's great to break yourself of the habit of blocking all the time.

In my dojo, ai-kakari is usually done in the few months leading up to a tournament. It is usually done about 2 minutes per pair, 5 times, more if the spirit is flagging...

Although in the past couple years, we haven't been doing this as much (I wish we did).

For the most part, we only have experienced members practice ai-kakarigeiko, b/c those who have played only a short time cannot yet do it correctly and so do not reap the benefits (for beginners, it is just normal kakarigeiko w/ a motodachi).

Yeah, we do this too in Northern Cal. I'm pretty sure others do this as well.

At the roughest, we had 2-3 rounds of kakari-geiko alternating and 1-2 rounds of kakari-geiko simultaneously from both sides (or sogo as you call it). The sogo is ok until you keep slamming into the other guy and jamming a thumb..

I believe it's the same as ai-kakari-geiko. And yes, we do it almost every practice. It's such a festival of clashes and strikes that you have to check the strings out after the session ( about one minute ) is over.

It's interesting in the sense that it's almost like keiko but you deliver youserlf completely in each strike, and you strike without thinking.

But yea, it's quite tiresome, but not that much. I'm 23 by the way.

I discovered that in every Jikeiko I had, there must be a few minutes that I turned into "Kakari-geiko Mode"-- non stop attacks in one breath ... And most of the time my opponent will also accommodate that by switching into "Kakari-geiko Mode" too. Ended up doing Ai-Kakari-geiko
