If you want realistic sparring practise with aikido; go up behind your partner when they are outside the dojo and strike them hard with yokomen uchi, from behind. If they are still standing/alive, as they turn round, hit them as hard as you can in the face with your fist. A realistic sparring excercise will then ensue(although this is often even more realistic when done with a complete stanger).
