Would you allow Martial Independent Study?  There are rules for it:

Independent Study: A martial adept can attempt to devise a new maneuver or stance independently, adding to an existing discipline. A DM decides if it’s possible for a character to develop a new maneuver.  If a DM permits the creation of a new maneuver, observe the following guidelines.  First, the martial adept requires a safe place to meditate and practice. This effort will take a number of days equal to 3 × the maneuver’s level, so if the adept is devising a 7th-level maneuver, the research will require 21 days. The adept pays 50 XP per day of study, which represents an intense regimen of meditation, fasting, and practice designed to focus the mind and spirit on the task at hand. A martial adept can’t create a new maneuver of a higher level than the adept is capable of learning. At the end of the requisite time for study and practice, the martial adept attempts a Martial Lore check (DC 25 + (2 × the maneuver’s level).
If the check succeeds, the character learns the maneuver the next time she has an opportunity to learn a new maneuver through level advancement or feat selection. If the check fails, the new maneuver is not yet perfected, and she must go through the study and practice time again if she wants to keep trying (although she regains the XP she has spent thus far).
A DM should work with the player before the attempt to develop a new maneuver begins, and give her guidance on the parameters under which a new maneuver or discipline might be acceptable (see Creating New Spells, DMG 35).
