ParticipantLook at you. Very organized and documenting your goals. Bowing looks pretty good to me. Do some very slow long strokes from frog to tip and see what happens. As you get all the way to the frog it will force your wrist to bend in order for the bow to stay perpendicular to the strings. Doing it slowly will train the wrist to make this bend. Your elbow and shoulder will also make some movement to accommodate. Then notice that even the greats are not always, all the time, exactly perpendicular to the string. We are human and it is normal. If the tone suffers — you know you are too far off the perpendicular.

ParticipantHi @kvmceff and thanks for your comment. I do struggle to bend the wrist for some reason and end up with a sort of liquid hand rather than a wrist movement. I’m not too concerned about it if I’m honest, but the FPC gives me an opportunity to focus on some things so I thought I would try that. I also have an issue with bow weight and not using the forefinger enough to add pressure I think, but that’s for another video.

ParticipantHi Karen,
I don’t mind at all, but for some reason it says your video isn’t available, so I can’t see it 🙁
