At Rex Kwan Do, we use the buddy system. No more flying solo. You need somebody watching your back at all times. Second off, you're gonna learn to discipline your image. You think I got where I am today because I dressed like Peter Pan over here?
[points to Prev]
Take a look at what I'm wearing, people. You think anybody wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys? Forget about it. Last off, my students will learn about self respect. You think anybody thinks I'm a failure because I go home to Starla at night? Forget about it!

There are quite a few!
Aikido born from samurai hand-to-hand combat moves is all about circles and smooth movements. (any steven Segal movie, don't piss on the guy, his moves actually will work he just an image work over)
There's tai chi with no active punches or kicks as such but many pulls, pushing, shoving and sensitivity drills not to mention good chi cultivation. (drunken tai chi – Donnie Yen)
Also from the same internal school is Pakua or Bagua (8 triagram palms) which is also about circles, taoism and was favoured by Beijing private security firms (watch Michelle Yeoh in crouching tiger)
The Leung Ting branch of the Wing Chun (Wing Tsun) system of Chinese Kung Fu preaches the mottos: Use Your Opponent's Force against them, and add your force to that of your opponents. No such movie yet but have a look at Prodigal Son with Yuen Biao and Lam Ching Ying.
In many forms of Chinese martial arts various Chin Na (joint locking) techniques are employed (Once Upon a Time in China II – Jet Lee's training lesson to his Aunt) and the forthcoming Sha Po Leung fight between Sammo Hung and Donnie yet) which can also be attributed to Aikido and also to jiu-jutsu.
Hope this helps, but using opponent's force is inherit in many systems of martial arts as it's a logical if not extremely effective means of defence/attack.
DON"T FORGET TO PRACTICE!!
