13 式 Threading-arm (穿臂) followed by Wiping-arm (抹臂) and Push
Threading-arm (穿臂) followed by Wiping-arm (抹臂) is a very logical sequence in Taijiquan application.
Sequence
1. Threading-arm (穿臂)
- Enter through the opponent's guard.
- Occupy the Centerline (中線).
- Establish Contact (接觸) and Bridge (搭橋).
- Shorten the distance.
Purpose: Enter (入門) and gain a superior position.
2. Wiping-arm (抹臂)
- After entering, if the opponent's other arm blocks or resists, slide or wipe (抹) along the arm.
- Redirect (引化) or clear (清除) the obstruction.
- Control the opponent's arm without using brute force.
Purpose: Clear (清除) the defense while maintaining Adherence (黏).
3. Press (按)
- Once the path is open, issue Press (按勁).
- The power comes from Whole-body Power (整體勁):
- Ground Force (蹬地)
- Kua (胯)
- Dantian (丹田)
- Spine (脊柱)
- Hands merely transmit the force.
Why use 穿臂 → 抹臂?
Because Threading (穿) gains the inside position, while Wiping (抹) removes the remaining obstacle.
It follows the tactical principle:
Enter (穿) → Clear (抹) → Issue Force (按)
入門 → 清除 → 發勁
Can the order be reversed?
Yes.
Sometimes the opponent's arm blocks your entry. In that case, you may:
Wipe (抹) → Thread (穿) → Press (按)
or even
Thread (穿) → Press (按)
if the centerline is already open.
Taiji Principle (太極原理)
There is no fixed sequence (無定法).
The order depends on:
- The opponent's force (來勁)
- The opening (空隙)
- The centerline (中線)
- The timing (時機)
This reflects the Taiji principle of "changing according to the opponent" (因敵變化) rather than following a predetermined pattern.
