Kakete and Ukete
'“Kakete” (掛手) is, when facing an opponent in combat, a technique that is applied to an opponent preemptively without waiting for an attack.'
'The converse of this situation is called “Ukete” (受手), in which technique is initiated after receiving an opponent’s attack. Most Daito-ryu technique are Ukete. Normally, Kakete is first taught only after one has significantly high rank.'
Quotes from "Hakaru Mori on Kakete and Aiki no Jutsu" by Hakaku Mori, translated by Christopher Li (s.a.),
