The single sword is one of the short weapons of taiji quan. It has 49 forms, which are reasonable in arrangement and compact in cohesion. Techniques mainly include stabbing, chopping, upper cutting, parrying, pointing, slicing, upper blocking, sweeping, cross cutting, thrusting and pushing. The player should move his body smoothly, steadily and quickly, applying his force hard or soft, closely following his opponent, dodging or tossing as the case may be. Chen-style taiji swordplay can be characterized as continuous and round movement of the sword with the whole body, quick change of attack and withdrawal, hard or soft application of forces.

Exercise requirements: the player should move smoothly and roundly as cloud flying and water flowing, and apply his force suddenly as a lion shaking his hair.
