There is a type of training in Budo called Kakari-geiko, which involves continuous attack. Judo and Kendo both have their own versions of this practice. In Judo, Kakari-geiko involves one person attacking continuously while the other defends, and in Kendo, it involves one person attacking while the other provides different openings to attack. This type of training is tiring but brings out the spirit of attacking because there is no time to think and the attacker performs at 100%; in Kendo at the least.
In Kendo, there is another version of Kakari-geiko called Hito-iki Kakari-geiko, which is done in one breath. This means that the attacker has to repeatedly attack with one technique after the other for 30 seconds to one minute in Kakari-geiko, and for 5 to 20 seconds in Hito-iki Kakari-geiko all is one single breath. In my experience, I can typically get three good Kendo hits (cuts) on my training partner during Hito-iki Kakari-geiko, and my best was five total only during the first round of this type of training. This type of training is usually done twice or three times depending on the number of training partners in the dojo.
Kakari-geiko is a Judo practice that should not be confused with Nage Komi. In Nage Komi, the thrower (Tori) repeatedly performs the same technique on the receiver (Uke), who quickly stands back up each time. When there are multiple Ukes, and Tori throws them continuously with different techniques, this is closer to Kakari-geiko, but still falls under the category of Nage Komi. In Kakari-geiko, Tori and Uke have agreed-upon roles and Uke presents different openings for Tori to quickly decide which throw to perform. It’s important to note that Kakari-geiko is not a free sparring/randori session.

Kakari-geiko in other Martial Arts: Jiu-Jitsu and Aikido (Yet, Different)
Kakari-geiko is a training method that can be applied to other martial arts, such as Jiu Jitsu and Aikido. Through this training design, one person stands in a circle and applies continuous techniques, fostering a sense of discipline and focus as one training partner attacks. It is essential to recognize that, philosophically, there are differences between this method and how it is applied in Kendo and Judo, as the student in the center of the circle in Jiu-Jitsu and Aikido is acting in self-defense and defensive nature.
Kakari-geiko and Hito-iki Kakari-geiko are two training methods in martial arts that are highly effective in developing endurance and creating sharp, quick attacks. These drills are renowned for bringing out the spirit of one’s attacks. When considering the benefits of Budo training, Kakari-geiko comes to my mind as a valuable asset, especially for those who don’t have experience in martial arts. If someone asks me about my training experience in Japan so far, I usually mention that I spent a significant amount of time practicing the basics, sweating, and engaging in battles during randori (Judo) and Keiko (Kendo). However, when I ponder on the essence of my training, I always smile and think of Kakari-geiko, which is something that only those who have experienced it with their training partners can truly comprehend.
