十八在訣

掤在兩臂,履在掌中,
擠在手背,按在腰攻,
採在十指,挒在兩肱,
肘在曲使,靠在肩胸,
進在雲手,退在轉肱,
顧在三前,盼在七星,
定在有隙,中在得橫,
滯在雙重,通在單輕,
虛在當守,實在必沖。

楊班侯


"Ward-off is on both arms,
roll-back is on the palm,
press is on the back of the hand
push is on the waist
pluck is on the ten fingers,
split is on both forearms,
elbow strike is used bent,
shoulder strike is on the shoulders and chest,
advance is on move hands like clouds,
retreat is on turning the forearms,
look after is one third in the front,
expect is on the seven stars,
steadiness is on the gaps,
the center needs to be horizontal,
stagnation is on double-weight,
connecting is on single lightness,
insubstantial is on defence,
substantial is on move forward."

Based on the translation by 楊俊敏 Yang Jwing Ming presented in the book 太極拳楊氏先哲秘要 Tai Chi Secrets of the Yang Style.
