Kakie

Kakie is a conversation, not an argument

"Kakie" refers to a partner drill exercise used to develop sensitivity and awareness of an opponent through touch. There are several variations on the type of hand movements used and you can perform and practise a variety of techniques using these drills.

Tips

• Keep your elbow down, don't let it point out to the side (flaring prevents your back muscles from helping)
• Try to relax as much as possible, using excess power will just slow you down and tire you out
  • Of course if you want to train your muscular endurance, putting excess power into kakie is a good way to do so
