An older guy there has introduced Maple Sugar, Snow Deer, Down Yonder and Under the Double Eagle. I’m pretty strong on learning tunes, but I still need to work on faster tempos…And I learn melodies, but I feel I need to better learn the tune chords. 🤓🎻

Since I started Feb. 7, ’22, I’ve only missed 2 days of practice, so I will also _aim to Play Every Day in 2024_ 🙂 My _2nd goal is to Practice Wisely_. In 2023, I tried to incorporate some Brainjo Principles into my practice, mainly that of “work” for ~ 30 min and then allow…[Read more]

Glad that you found it helpful!
    In reply to - Terri πŸ€“πŸŽ» posted an update Hi All! This is my first attempt to post! In Feb \'22, I started fiddle at age 58. While I don\'t have serious physical problems, I played sports A LOT when I was younger, and I\'ve broken a few fingers, and my right thumb was broken away from my hand. My wrists were not very flexible...So, I researched this a bit...And now, I have a series of stretches that I do every day before I play. I start w/my neck then shoulders (I use Peggy Cappy\'s \"Yoga for the Rest of Us\" neck, shoulder and wrist warmups) then arms (tricep and bicep stretches) then wrists then fingers...For the fingers and wrists, I found a book that was originally in German written in 1860, \"Gymnastics for the Fingers and Wrist\". Here\'s the link to the site that has the pdf version in English (its free): https://ia902700.us.archive.org/21/items/wardjacksonsgymn00warduoft/wardjacksonsgymn00warduoft.pdf The author wrote this book because he played violin when he was young, quit for many years, and as an adult found that his fingers and wrists were very weak. I hope this is helpful to others! 🙂 ]]>         bef47662947374e087c4676f666b1388 Terri πŸ€“πŸŽ»'s profile was updated https://fiddlehed.com/activity-streams/p/17978/ Sat, 21 Jan 2023 23:34:33 -0800 0 54fe7a69616cfb24284927181291336e Terri πŸ€“πŸŽ» changed their profile picture https://fiddlehed.com/activity-streams/p/17977/ Sat, 21 Jan 2023 23:30:24 -0800 0 02c428e42c4f22c6e76bf19024f2b667 Terri πŸ€“πŸŽ» posted a new activity comment https://fiddlehed.com/activity-streams/p/17882/#acomment-17895 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 13:31:46 -0800
