This is kaeshiwaza, counter techniques to several basic aikido techniques. I see it as a practice to improve the aikido techniques towards a point when they can no longer be countered.
In kaeshiwaza, you counter an aikido technique with another (or the same) aikido technique. It should be practiced with care to avoid injuries. Resisting aikido techniques can be harmful if not done correctly. Therefore, it's a good idea to go slowly and gently at first.
There is one simple rule to kaeshiwaza: timing. You can counter an aikido technique at certain moments of it and not at others. Those are moments when the person doing the technique tries to take over control. You can avoid it by applying aikido principles - accepting and then redirecting the force. So, you're using aikido also when countering aikido techniques.
Kaeshiwaza helps to discover flaws in your techniques, and correct them. So, after practicing kaeshiwaza counters, you should also try to change your technique to withstand the counters - but carefully, or you may get hurt. As with all aikido practice, it should be done in a spirit of cooperation, for the benefit of both participants.
