So, O'Sensei used to train his "leading" students in the art of "martial competition"... Hang on, I though he hated competition as being none-Aikido. *grins evilly*
Kaeshi waza is fun, not dangerous at all and beginners can learn it quiet fast. Every randori match I have, I try to practice kaeshi waza. Sometimes, I even manage to make it work. It's hard but fun.
Sometimes I even teach kaeshi waza while doing randori to lower grades.
