Not to be an arse, but chakras are really only a Fist or Rhalgr/Monk thing : < Surely it can happen, but if I'm really honest? So, so, so many do this, and it is getting old very fast. I eye twitch every time I see it, and I know lots of other roleplayers do this as well.
Being a Monk isn't just a technique of fighting. It is devoting your whole life to Rhalgr. It is all about training, killing, meditating, Rhalgr this, Rhalgr that, Ala Mhigo boohoo, Temple this ect. And finding a person who can teach you to fight like a Monk isn't going to drop out of the heavens on demand, especially in Othard. It is sadly enough an Ala Mhigan only job in that sense, like Dragoon is an Ishgardian only thing or Ninja a Doman thing. Surely you can find loopholes like the one described above, but ask you would it make for a good character, or just complicate it? (And lets ignore the WoL for a second here, because the person really isn't a Fist but a special snowflake who masters everything in a heartbeat.)
If I were you? I would just go towards Ninja seeming that appears to so much fitting for a Doman character. But it is your character in the end, I'm just cautioning you against it due to well, lore. Pugilist might be more where you want to go for. They can achieve awesome things as well. Hells, you don't even need to be a Pugilist or Monk to fight with flashy Aether effects as a melee user. One of the Heavenwards Knights infuses his axe with thunder/lightening. But he isn't suddenly named an axe wielding Monk despite adding an 'elemental/Aether' touch to his fighting style..
