From the many videos I watched about this subject, yours is really the best. No metaphoric, symbolic expressions that a beginner can’t understand. Just watching how your wrist and fingers move one can understand what is needed to do.
Okay so I'd like to share my story here, i am a self teaching beginner ( sort of ) who has been struggling since a year now, i used to just randomly watch violinist playing songs and i would learn it by ear but the fact is my bow used to ALWAYS shake LIKE HELLLLLLL and i always used to ignore watching videos and continue to play songs by ear and saw 0 progress but now as I've started practicing the RIGHT WAY by not just randomly searching songs but ACTUALLY learning techniques and stuff your videos have been a GREAT help. Thank you so much please don't stop posting as self teaching students like me are completely relied on you🙏🏻
Thank you very much for the video! I have the most trouble with switching strings. By focusing on the bow resting on the string instead of moving my hand it goes much better.
I started playing violin ( Indian style violin ) at the age of 20😅( I know I'm too late) Practicing violin besides engineering studies is hard for me😢 But your videos helps me a lot, especially I can rectify my mistakes. Thank you for guiding and upload further lessons😊
Thanks so much for the video! This gives me a couple of places to start. Do you have any tips for keeping from having a shaky bow when you have a pre-existing tremor in your hand? I find I shake the most right at the beginning of a bow stroke.
Hi there! Thanks for watching. I’m guessing it could be related to tension. Holding the bow is unnatural at first so I’ve seen bows shake when students first learn. Do your best to exhale all the tension and relax your bow hand enough to smoothly pull the bow. Let me know how that goes! Thanks for joining our little community 😊

You’re welcome! ☺️
talking about absolute perfect bowing, don’t know if it’s my own feeling, I feel that Renaud Capuçon has a incredibly clean sound
So helpful, thank you so much!

Pertains to viola too, yes?
of course!
I think my bowing is precisely concave thumb and pronation all over the place. I will see about changing that.
