I think it is not such simple subject. Aikido is a Budo practice, not some kind of healthy gymnastic....
I agree. That's why my second sentence was: "Unless you and your partner have explicitly agreed otherwise. "

There are times when it's appropriate to practice more intensely and possibly less safely. But both partners have to agree that it's time to do that! It didn't sound like that was the case here.
