Ok so with all the talk of gestalts got me wondering.

Would in a Pathfinder game a Witch//Monk build work?
Here is my reasons for the idea
AC Bonuses, Wisdom while not a caster stat it is still good for a INT focused character and can be a good supplement and stacks with Mage Armor and Shield spell.
better BAB and saves. The monk gets good in all saves and has a 3/4 BAB progression.
Unarmed combat. With the witch only getting simple weapons this gives the witch some more wiggle room if the baddies get to close to her or her familiar.
Qinggong Monk has some interesting fluff uses.

What do you all think?
Not an UberOP build question but with Witch being tier 1 I figured it might make it less powerful due to the use of 3 stats over 2 (Dex and Int)

In my experience, Monk is a good gestalt with any number of casters. The benefits are passive and defensive, while the casters tend to be more offensive and action-oriented. It sounds like a good match-up to me.
