Chi Kung/Pa Kua in Ninpo?

[pknox]

I had read in a prior post that the Genbukan teaches some Chi Kung and Pa Kua, as Shoto Tanemura has some expertise in those styles. Is that expertise unique to Tanemura and apart from what he learned while training in the Bujinkan, or does the Chi Kung and/or Pa Kua exist within the nine traditions?

He learned Chinese internal arts elsewhere...from Sato Kimbei sensei I believe.

from Jujutsu.com

Sato Kimbei's 'proficiant Chinese arts':

Hsing I Chuan, Ba Ji Chuan, Ba Gua Zhang, Chen Pan-Ling Tai Chi Chuan, White Crane, and Fu Jian Province Shaolin Golden Hawk. Of particular note, Sato Kinbei is the only 4th generation Ba Gua Zhang lineage holder in Japan.

That makes sense then. I know there are "sensitivity exercises" similar to push hands and chi sau/chi gerk in some of the training, but I didn't think there would be complete Chinese internal styles contained within. Thanks.
