Chapter 12: Masters & Apprentices: Greatest Hits
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13850809/12/Their-True-Names

Jared Sandeye explains to Larina Skyleaf that the Akret Branch has a fifth style named "Hayisōkū". This is in reference to Yoshukai Karate, a separate style from Chito-ryu. The three kanji, or Japanese symbols, that make of Yoshukai translate to "Training Hall of Continued Improvement" (called "the School of the Ever-Evolving" in-universe). The standardized English translation is "Striving for Excellence" (called "the Ascension to Brilliance" in-universe). The other four styles of the Akret Branch (based on Karate–dō, meaning "Way of the Empty Hand" in Japanese) are Kōnōtash (Shotokan), Hoskinyuk (Kyokushin), Gōryjūn (Gōjū-ryū), and Rtuyoshi (Shito-ryu).

Tipuka's "Ganguen Huk" techniques are references to actual moves and styles in the real-world Hung Ga Kuen style. Their names have been changed to fit within Redwall's worldbuilding.

"Taming the Wolverine in Ganguen Huk" - Gung Ji Fuk Fu Kuen (Taming the Tiger in Hung Ga Pattern)
"Wolverine and Heron Twin Figure Fist" - Tiger and Crane (Two) Twin Shape Fist
"Unshadowed kick" - Shadowless kick

The Five Elements
"Gilded Bridge Divided" - Gold Bridge Divides (fun gum kiu)
"Clenching Wood Clutch" - Squeezing Wood Punch (Ghat mok choy)
"Pushing Water Waves" - Water Wave Punch (soy long pow choy)
"Fire Arrow Strike" - Fire Arrow Punch (faw gin choy)

"Plum Blossom Fist" is a preliminary form of Hung Ga. The in-universe technical name is "Miszukhean", referencing the real-world name for the form, Meihuaquan.

The "Twelve Bridging Paws" are directly inspired by the Twelve Bridge Hands of Hung Ga, and are somewhat identical copies of the techniques.

"The legendary Ganguen Huk master Zackary Reones Bayot" is a reference to famed Chinese martial artist Wong Fei-hung. It was said that the Fire Arrow Punch (faw gin choy) and the shadowless kick were among his favorite and most famous techniques.

The "Bayot Family Style" is based on the "Lau Family Fist". This is a fist set originally from the "Mok Gar" style, and it was incorporated into the Hung Ga Kuen system by grandmaster Lam Cho.

The Githinsteel rings that Tipuka wears on his wrists for the fight are based on iron rings that Hung Ga Kuen practitioners wear during training and combat to increase their strength and endurance, as well as to provide defense.

There are more Hung Ga Kuen techniques beyond what Tipuka showed and used against Jared in their exhibition match. However, the combatants were limited by the two minute timeframe of their fight.
---------------------------------------------------------
Antonius' Halichit (Tai Chi) sword is called a "Naijiat". It is based on the real-world Chinese double-edged sword Jian. In his ambush by Nagrig Deathblade, Antonius uses the "32 Sword Form", or Yang Taiji Jian.

"Wolverine Holds Head" - Tiger Holding Head
"Wild Horse Leaps Over Matutinao River" - Wild Horse Leaping Over Creek
"Monitor Lizard Contemplates the Moon" - Rhinoceros Gazing at the Moon

Matutinao River is a river located in Badian, Cebu Island, Philippines, and is considered to be the cleanest river in the country. Since Halichit is said to have originated in the Eastern Island of Eseltharis, it is safe to assume that the island is based on the real-world Filipino province of Cebu.

"4 Tails can Move a Thousand Pounds" is based on the Tai Chi phrase "4 ounces can move a thousand pounds", which refers to a very skillful deflection.

Nagrig Deathblade's technique used to disarm and incapacitate Antonius is based on the Snake form of Shaolin Kempo Karate.

Nagrig Deathblade: Lonxai (Snake Style Kung Fu). Nagrig name-drops the names of various Snakes featured across the Redwall series, including Asmodeus Poisonteeth, Berussca, and Slariss of Volcano Island, among others.
Zakrul Bloodeyes: Shonjin (Shorinji Kempo)
Dragel, chief mercenary of Terramort Isle: Akhdap (Aikido)
Adhuxnuo, helmsbeast of the Scornful Tyrant: Nata Shundua Uft (Choy Li Fut)

Madeline Sandeye: Lunkuthwo (Southern Dragon Kung Fu). Though Madeline's primary style is Tuah Mann (Muay Thai), she picked up learning Southern Dragon to honor hers and Jared's late eldest brother, Edoran, whom Adhuxnuo had murdered some time before the events of the fanfiction. Her style references Slothunog, the water-dragon who inhabited the Deeplough of the Green Isle.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baduanjin_qigong

The energy which Jared mentions to Larina, called "Hangaw" (from Filipino meaning "breath") is a natural life energy inherent in all living creatures. The style "Hangaw Daloy" is directly based on Baduanjin Qigong, or the "Eight Section Brocades", one of the most common forms of qigong used as exercise. Think of "Hangaw" as the Redwall's Legacy universe's equivalent of qi/chi energy.
