Re: From whom did Tohei learn this?

There was at least one secret weapons study group going on during the sixties. My teacher was in that group and to this day refused to provide anybody with the name(s) of the teacher(s) or people who attended.

There are still instructors at Aikikai from the Hombu dojo who are privately training with other martial arts teachers. It seems that "cross training" just happens as long as nobody blabs about it.
