Re: Is there more?
In our dojo (and i would assume many others) we have a mix of backgrounds, i.e. karateka, judoka. vale tudo etc. all of these guys were relatively high grades when they left (nidan and above kind of level) so when we haven't got a grading coming around sensei sometimes 'opens the floor' to them and lets us 'play' with techniques they show us. a think a little cross training can be good in an aikido class, but only as a one off, and the focus is always on the aiki.
