I put down my violin after playing every piece and I haven't had any trouble with physical pain. Bad intonation, on the other hand, causes me considerable emotional pain ;-) Thanks for your wonderful video clips!
Dear Tim, yes after a long hours violin playing, most of us get a bit of pain everywhere including the neck. But stretchings afterwards helps a lot. I hope you can try it.
Thank you for the lesson Joy and thank you for sharing your story about jaw tension! My jaw and teeth used to hurt a lot too, but I haven't really had any neck and shoulder pains because of your previous videos and I still remember your advice to use the cork, but I haven't done it in a while. Stay safe and warm!
I am sorry to hear about your pain Debbie. I hope you can include stretching exercises after each playing and hopefully it will be better. All the best to you and happy music making!
Oh wow! You are a yoga instructor! I need to take a class from you!! :) Holding a violin ( a wooden box) with our chin and shoulder is certainly not an easy task. I wish you a successful trying! All the best Debbie!
A humorous video for a serious topic, it made me smiling! :-) I find it very helpful, as it's quite easy to develop bad habits and it's important to be aware of this and re-adjust. Thank you so much! Btw., if I do not develop a hicky, do I not practice enough? ;-)
Glad you enjoyed it Johannes! the hicky mark is not necessarily the sign of proper violin practising. So no need to worry about it :) Happy violin playing!
Personally I use a neck strap to hold the violin. It's maybe frowned upon but holding a piece of wood for hours only with your neck is not really natural and that's what should be important! It's a shame the violin has evolved into being one of the most uncomfortable instrument to play. I regret the baroque era: people were playing with the violin put on their left elbow then!
thanks for the tip about not looking at the fingerboard much, i think thats what was causing my pain
Hope you are well Joy Lee ! Been following u since 2 years ago ! But.. haven't start practicing violin yet :p
HI Angeline, thanks for your kind following. Hopefully you can one day play the violin yourself :)

You are funny 442 Hz! :)))) Trust me, you are not alone. We all have that moment :) And thank you also!
@@JoyLeeViolin I've got a very good ear, so I suffer a lot but it's all worth it a million times over!
The fundamental of strings instruments playing is muscle relaxation and strength i wish i would know that 16 years before thanks a lot Miss Joy Lee
I have had one of these for months and couldn’t figure out how to solve it. Thank you for addressing this kind of stuff.
I have this neck pain issue especially after a long time holding and practising the violin. Is this normal?
@@timnyapming8114 i think so
Very welcome Abhinav!
