Overview:
Chen-style Taiji single sword belongs to Taiji short weapons. This swordplay consists of 49 movements, mainly including thrust, hack, uppercut, parry, point, slice, block, sweep, intercept, prick, push, deflect and neutralization. They are practically arranged and smoothly linked up. Combined with Taiji Quan natural and poised body position and its flexible and steady footsteps, Taiji single swordplay is full of changes. It may be played with hardness one moment and softness the next. Sometimes the sword is played so fast that it cannot be seen. The player may stick to his opponent without being separate and then jump high and dodge away. He seizes every opportunity, by feints or ambushes, to attack his opponent or tire him out. The swordplay can be characterized as continuous, sticky and changeable.
