In what way is India related to chinese kung fu?

As far as i know, Buddhism originated from India. It is through Buddhist Monk (Budhidharma?) that the religion spread to China. With Buddhism came the martial arts we know now as Kung Fu. It started as Physical exercises taught to the Shaolin Monks as they were seen,before, to be frail and weak.|||no|||who in the world told you that!!!|||Almost all martial arts originated from Kalaripayattu. It is one of the oldest existing martial arts forms tracing back over 3000 years. Kung fu has been traced to Bodhi Dharma an Indian buddhist monk who was a kalaripayattu master|||I heard the MA started in India also not in China/Japan as most people think.
